CNN: The longtime congresswoman, whose district includes much of Los Angeles, also described some senators who are opposed to the health care reform bill as "Neanderthals."

"Not only are we going to do everything we can to organize and put pressure on the senators — some of whom are Neanderthals — we're going to say to the president, 'We want you to use every weapon in your basket in order to get those senators to do what they should be doing,'" Rep. Maxine Waters said.

Neanderthals had a lot more going for them than does this stooge.

Maxine Waters said.

I thought that what Senators are supposed to do is represent the people who elected them, not cave in to pressure from "those who know best"?

[Fresh Wind]

Yeah, but not all Troglodytes are black...

[Non-Sequitur]

Neander is a place in Germany; thal is the German word for valley. The Neander Valley was the location where this human was first identified.

Are you directing that at me? Or at Waters?

They receive quite a bit of OUR tax money.

Watson’s district is home of the intersection at which Reginald Denny was pulled from his truck and beaten nearly to death.

I'd be willing to bet she WOULD vote for a bill that doesn't have the "public option".

Simply because she is an Obama boot licker!

PATHETIC!

Another very strong argument in favor of term limits

I figured you knew. It's for the benefit of the folks at FR.

I have a ten year history at FR of archaeology/anthropology posts.

When people who can't read , write or pay taxes are allowed to vote, Maxine Waters is what you get.

I was wondering if

“takes one to know one”

would get an

“Admin-onishment”

Projection. A slight Neanderthal strain means that you will occasionally have spells of primitive behavior, crawling around on all fours and whooping wildly. If you live in California, no one will notice.

Her face is a picture of hate.

Isn’t Maxine the genius who thought astronauts left American flags on Mars?

[stbdside]

genius = sarcasm

[o2bfree]

Maxine Waters’ IQ is so low she probably couldn’t pass a fourth grade math test... yet she is member of Congress.

[GraceG]

Heck i would love to replace some of the congress critters with chimps straight out of “Planet of the Apes”. They did seem to actually worry about “Borders Language and Culture” a lot more than the current batch of congress critters.

As my favorite Lady says... “You Betcha”!
