Rep. Maxine Waters: 'The Tea Party Can Go Straight To Hell' August 20, 2011
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Los Angeles) came out swinging against Republicans in Congress on Saturday as she addressed the unemployed during a forum in Inglewood.
The event occurred a day after new statistics were released showing that California's jobless rate last month went up to 12%, from 11.8%. California now has the second-highest rate of unemployment in the nation, trailing only Nevada at 12.9%, and its jobless rate is well above the U.S. average of 9.1%.
Waters vowed to push Congress to focus on creating more jobs. "I'm not afraid of anybody," said Waters. "This is a tough game. You can't be intimidated. You can't be frightened. And as far as I'm concerned, the 'tea party' can go straight to hell."
More than 1,000 people attended "Kitchen Table Summit," which was designed to give the jobless an opportunity to vent to elected officials and share their struggles about finding a job.
KABC-TV quoted speakers talking about living without medical insurance and surviving paycheck to paycheck.
"Thank God I am healthy because a medical illness would bankrupt me," said Regina Davis of Inglewood.

Wow..’ate up’ doesn’t begin to describe it. Somebody needs to connect with their inner joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness, empathy & truth...cause there ain’t none up in Water’s world.
Oh I bet you at least 75% of the voters in that district have heard of the Tea Party movement and have an opinion of it. If you asked them to describe it, they’d tell you that it’s a bunch of rich white people who hate the president and don’t care about poor people. This is what Maxine tells them. That’s what they know.
There isn’t a place hot enough in Hell for you, Hag.Once you get there,you won’t be able to tax and regulate it,either.
The North wanted em freed..given citizenship..the right to vote..
Do not understand the complaints about Waters.
One thing is certain...The South was Right.
If the tea party is as white as the libs and the media have been telling us for the past year and a half, MW’s statement could only be inspired by...RACISM!!!!
Or if Lincoln hand’t been shot and suceeded in sending them back home.
Maxine doesn’t really mean it. If Tea party folks went to hell who would support her constituents and pay their bills for them.
She may hate us ,but she loves what we are buying for her constituents. Those entitlements she keeps voting for have to be paid for. We are doing that paying.
After all I wish she and the CBC would go to hell.
Is Marxine Waters related to John Waters?
Thank you Ms. Walters. You now do more for Tea Party recruitment than the tea party themselves.
Hey, waters, you racist, anti-Free-America loon...Your statement about Tea Party citizens is reflective of your ignorance and worthlessness. You have reached a new low for a congress member...telling a majority of Americans to “go to Hell.” Sheesh!
And we used to think “Let them eat cake” was insensitive.
The way she keeps things there, I'd have to decline.
...and so can everybody else who believes in fiscal responsibility, and does not agree in the borrow, print, and spend philosophy of the Democrats.
Hell isn’t until 2014. In 2012 it’s just the Senate and Presidency.
“There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs, partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”… Booker T. Washington …1904
Maxine Waters and the loser negroes who elect her can go straight to hell, too, and they can kiss my TEA party, freedom loving a$$.
After you, Maxine, you twit.
"[Maxine] Waters has been criticized for her comments regarding the Los Angeles riots of 1992. In defense of the people that looted stores and damaged property, Waters said 'If you call it a riot it sounds like it was just a bunch of crazy people who went out and did bad things for no reason. I maintain it was somewhat understandable, if not acceptable. So I call it a rebellion.'[5] She also said it was 'a spontaneous reaction to a lot of injustice' and 'The anger in my district is righteous. I'm just as angry as they are.' She responded to the mass looting of Korean-owned stores by saying: 'There were mothers who took this as an opportunity to take some milk, to take some bread, to take some shoes. They are not crooks. Everybody in the street was not a thug or a hood.'"

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
"Throughout its history, one of RCP's [Revolutionary Communist Party's] principal objectives has been to foment civil unrest in the United States. The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots. During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.
Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"

"The RCP [Revolutionary Communist Party] upheld the 1992 sometimes-violent unrest in Los Angeles and nationally as a 'rebellion' in the aftermath of the Rodney King verdicts. Then-LAPD chief Daryl Gates alleged that the RCP was involved in the 'riots'. Los Angeles has long been one of the RCP's larger and more active branches. William 'Mobile' Shaw was a local leader who recently passed and received public commendation from the party."

The RCP calls for the violent overthrow of the U.S. government...
From the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party (revcom.us or rwor.org) :
"Create Public Opinion, Seize Power: We are preparing minds and organizing forces for the time when there is a major crack in the system, whenever it comes and wherever it comes from: an opening that makes it possible to bring the future Revolutionary Army of the Proletariat (R.A.P.) into the field and wage a revolutionary armed struggle that actually has a chance of winning.
And we have said that building our party itself is the most important part of organizing forces for revolution. This is true now, and it is true looking forward to the creation of that future R.A.P. and the waging of that armed struggle.":
Remember when she wanted to Impeach Ken Starr?
Remember when she wanted to Impeach Ken Starr?
BTW, how are things going in Compton these days?
Why is her hearing/trial taking so long? (/s/).
She’s a crook, she backed a corrupt Fannie/Freddie and she and her husband benefited from stimulus funds.
This whole administration’s purpose has been nothing more than a massive reparations program. And she’s looking for more. She’s a bigot in office, nothing more.
