Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) calls Republicans "dead-beat debtors" among other things during a Democratic press conference on Wednesday morning.
"The debate and fight is not between Democrats and Republicans. It's between some Republicans and their sort of cult fringe as I refer to them out there," Harkin said.
"Democrats are willing to do whatever is necessary to raise the debt ceiling, not for future borrowing but to pay the debts that we racked up in the past. Which, mostly was racked up by a Republican House, a Republican Senate and a Republican President in the last 8 years. Yet, they're not willing to pay the bills," Harkin said.

“Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) calls Republicans “dead-beat debtors”..”
Gee Tom, looks like you’re projecting again. You DEMS.s are the Dead-beats.
STOP spending our money!
“raise the debt ceiling, not for future borrowing but to pay the debts “
Harkin is certifiably insane.
I’m glad he bashing the Tea Party though.
And here are examples of the 'solid patriotic American' base that votes for the likes of Harkin ....
Harkin, you are a shameless political hack. People of Iowa. Vote his marxist a** out of office asap.
Tom shouldn’t call his party leadership names like that.
No Republican will talk this way in public. Sissies.
The cult fringe that respects that peoples’ earnings are presumptively theirs and not Tom Harkin’s to buy votes.
Hey Harkin: Blow it out your backside.
They’re down to name calling. We’re facing opposition from a bunch of mutating lemmings, that refuse to follow the rest of us normal lemmings to safety. It’s this way. We’re all going this way, so it must be right. Forward!

Unfortunately, there's nothing "fringe" about socialists or communists in Europe....or America. They are mainstream and control governments on both continents.
Harkin is the epitome of a “cult fringe”
Anything? Really? Anything? How about cutting spending, Obamacare, tremendously overgrown bueracracy, entitlement reform etc...
This is an artists rendition of my response upon reading this quote: 
FUTH! If it wasn’t for Republican “cultists”, NOBODY would be paying taxes. We sure can’t count on you commie ‘RATS to pay them. Ask Turbo Tax Timmy! He’ll tell ya!
Well played
Yes, we know, Harkin, so why don’t you stop holding things up!
He’s probably just getting too damned old. PRY those gnarled old fingers from their grip on the seat and send him off to the old folks home, just another crazy, ranting old man to be drugged and encouraged to die. (that’s why they never retire)
Looks to me like the Rats are holding things up. The House passed a bill. Get it through your Rat Senate.
If you can make a visit to his office, that probably carries more weight than an email, a dino letter, or even a phone call. Don’t get yourself arrested though. Unless you want to. You could go in there and denounce the commies with everything you’ve got... alert the media before you do it... get dragged out for the six o’clock news. Have a friend make a cell phone video for protection. You could be a hero!
