Weapon of Massa distraction: Cold showers and hot conspiracies (is he just an opportunist?)
Michelle Malkin.com ^ | 8 March 2010 | Michelle Malkin

Posted on 03/08/2010 4:17:45 PM PST by SE Mom

Don’t trust Democrat Rep. Eric Massa any further than you can throw him.

He’s been a progressive zealot and political opportunist his entire career. He’s claimed conspiracy before, is intimately bonded with the nutroots, and climbed the political ladder with backing from the odious, anti-war-hoaxer-embracing Gen. Wesley Clark. What Massa dismissively calls his “salty old sailor” talk should raise bright red flags about possible longstanding predatory behavior.

Look, I’m as happy as anyone to see Rahmbo and the Chicago Way slammed so openly by another Democrat. Naked shower fights? Blue-on-blue catfights?

Yep, it confirms everything I’ve been writing about the Obama Culture of Corruption the last two years.

But.

He’s a sick, desperate pol looking to save his hide and distract from his smelly ethics problems and personal problems. This is not a hero, not a bona fide champion of reform and integrity in government. He’s the jerk who gave the figurative middle finger to his own constituents as he proclaimed last year that he would ram single-payer down their throats no matter what they thought..

..So, last year he’s the pol willing to go kamikaze to pass nationalized health care.

And now, tainted by scandal, he’s running to Fox News to cast himself as a warrior against Obamcare and its left-wing overlords?

A radical backer of the Big Labor card check bill, he’s now trashing union corruption.

C-r-a-p-w-e-a-s-e-l.

We don’t need this weapon of Massa distraction to indict the Obama thugs and to expose the Demcare bribe-a-thon. Don’t need him to keep the no-mentum going....

Ah, Michelle, they are delicious stories, though.

I hope massa takes the fish-head thug down with him.

Don’t trust Juan McCain either and the RINOs sucking up to him like Romney, Flake, Palin, Thompson, Huckelbee and other RINOs.

I trust Massa more than I trust McCain.

Me neither. Listening to Glenn Beck this morning, he mentioned that he didn’t know anything about Massa. It was mentioned by someone on his show that he thought that he was a Republican turned Dim.

Hmmmm...an opportunist perhaps.

I know...and then Beck goes over the top (again? still?) and says:

“This is a moment that will decide the course of this nation, possibly”

She can think what she likes, but I don’t believe the charges. I’m from NY-29, Massa’s district, and here in NY we’ve seen whats been happening to people who stand in the way of the Obama-Chicago machine. These people may be corrupt, but they are small potatoes compared to the massive Chicago machine that is blowing through the state, rolling over New Yorkers without even feeling a bump.

It’s easy for her to talk like this when her district has not been disenfranchized like mine has. Eric Massa was a NO on DeathCare and he was all we had. Now my district, which is opposed to it has zero say. Is no one thinking about the voters at all??

Nor am I. However I do see yet another double standard even though both players are dems. Doesn’t Barney Frank engage in the behavior Massa is getting nailed for? What’s the difference? Is it because Barney is a yes vote? My my the double standard is showing!

Well- when I listened to the youtube at the link of Malkin’s I hear him saying he is strongly in favor of single-payer...

Were you aware of that? I wasn’t. He said it last year.

I got pretty excited when I heard the tape with Massa made on the Sunday radio talk show...now..I wonder if what this guy really believes.

Squirm...squirm little emanu- ain't. Exposing this is way too delicious to pass up and it may have a bonus effect.

Michelle should be counseled to let the Democrats kill each other.

I think her assessment of Massa is spot-on... but I also think it’s true that the dems are throwing him under the bus for nothing other than his vote on health insurance reform.

His supposed “issues” are nano-scandals in comparison to anything else democrats are up to. It’s all pretty small stuff when you’ve got the likes of Charlie Wrangel out there getting full support.

I’ll watch him tomorrow anyways to see what he has to say.

I respect Michelle Malkin, but sometimes she gets a bit eccentric.

"(Massa) climbed the political ladder with backing from...Gen. Wesley Clark."

That's enough for me.

So one is no longer allowed to register and comment at michelemalkin.com?

I guess that's because she has all these jerks signed up who have never been in a men's locker room.

I've NEVER seen anything but a communal shower in any of the several dozen men's locker rooms I've been in (not counting a brief modification during construction). And I've never shied away from a political discussion because I wasn't dressed. My locker room would be a very quiet place if people didn't continue conversations while they were undressed. We all leave as soon as we get dressed.

Massa may be a whiner, but boy can he whine! Does anyone really doubt his tales of Rahm?? I find him all too believable on that count...

However, Massa is still a scumbag Dhimmie who has a big mouth, some distasteful sexual proclivities, and has no business being in Congress. I don’t think anyone is weeping big tears to see him go, but his departure speech was certainly entertaining if not outright enlightening.
