Profanity, Anger Spill Over in House Democratic Caucus Meeting
Rollcall.com ^ | December 9, 2010 | By Anna Palmer

Posted on 12/09/2010 3:44:35 PM PST by MissesBush

The frustration with President Barack Obama over his tax cut compromise was palpable and even profane at Thursday’s House Democratic Caucus meeting.

One unidentified lawmaker went so far as to mutter “f— the president” while Rep. Shelley Berkley was defending the package the president negotiated with Republicans. Berkley confirmed the incident, although she declined to name the specific lawmaker.

“It wasn’t loud,” the Nevada Democrat said. “It was just expressing frustration from a very frustrated Member.”

Rep. Jerrold Nadler (N.Y.) was also overheard saying that “we can’t trust him” not to cave to Republicans and extend the tax cuts again in two years, according to a Democratic source.

The anger aimed at the bill was widespread. As Democrats moved to block the bill from coming up on the floor, chants of “Just say no!” could be heard by reporters outside the room.

What I find somewhat amusing despite my taxes going up is that the Dems beat that drum of “the Republicans aren’t bi-partisan” to death over every bill they passed without us. Now that we cooperate and compromise, it’s not good enough.

I could not believe my ears when that little weasel bastard Weiner kept insisting "it's not your money because you're dead".

Amazing watching them get all emotional and wee-wee'd up........

So, let me see if I have this correct....you direct a statement toward the occupant of the Office of President of the USA which is demeaning, insulting, non-PC, using terminology which some may consider to be profane and vulgar, yet you do it “quietly,” then all is okay?

At least he didn't call him a liar!

Oh wait, yes he did. He said "we can't trust him"

Same thing, just not a problem when the left does it. How about censure?

Wow, the Democratic cult is so enamored of high taxes they'll even turn on the cult leader if he goes against the liberal sacrament of tax hiking.

You nailed it. They are so hell-bent on achieving their socialist goals they're willing to sacrifice the head socialist in the process. If they weren't damaging the country it would be entertaining.

“f— the president”

Hehe.

We've gone from them in '08 thinking he's a God and can control the seas to this.

Obama: The Ultimate Liberally-Used Black Man, by black conservative Bob Parks.

Excerpt:

Bill Clinton (early into his first term) wasn’t stupid enough to attempt a takeover of one-sixth of the United States’ economy.

He got his wife to do it.

She was a woman, thus deemed untouchable by the media and opposition. We all know what happened after that and other screw-ups: Democrats lost control of the House and Senate.

No politician was stupid enough to try that again…

Oh, wait. And this time They used a black man.

Note they didn't state "Representative". I betcha Linda Grahmnesty snuck over to the House chambers to be with his buddies Weiner and Fwank.

Remember when the democrats suckered George H.W. Bush into increasing taxes with the promise that they would reduce spending?

Payback's a b!tch

They lust after TAXES so much that they are even willing to very publicly sacrifice their own leader.

Think about it: this dustup is over the unquenchable desire to RAISE TAXES.

My grandmother always told me that profanity was the feeble minded’s way of expressing themselves with force... right again.

The communist forces in enemy occupied Washington are bat-sh*t enraged that they can’t continue to destroy the hated US economy as effectively as they have for two long, painful years.
