Secretary Of Labor Calls Out 'Teabaggers'

Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis embraced the derogatory term used to describe members of the tea party in an appearance at the Florida Democratic Convention over the weekend.

"I'll be darned if I'm going to set that aside now because a few tea baggers want to somehow muzzle my voice," she said, according to the Tallahassee Democrat. "We don't have to sit back and allow a minority in the Congress, known as the tea party, to dominate the discussion in our households."

This story is just getting picked up in the national press, so expect to hear more about it in the coming days — perhaps even a call for an official repudiation from the White House.

“dominate the discussion in our households.”

She wants to control discussion in HOUSEHOLDS? The Dem desire for raw power is showing here.

So, when a leftist receives scrutiny and criticism for her fascist tendencies, it’s OK to refer to them using a disgusting homosexual sex act?

Stay classy, lefties.

What a vile human being. The irony is it is the left that tries to brand a conservative or group as in the case of the Tea Party with disgusting sexual practices by homosexuals, most likely liberal.

Where are the chants for her to step down due to her hateful speech?

Every time one of these ‘ladies’ and ‘gentlemen’ (and I use those terms sarcastically) utters that filth, they should be called on it.

Do they kiss their significant others with those mouths? Disgusting people, and they arrogantly announce they are so much smarter, so much better, than the rest of us.

It is time for this to stop.

Why do Dem’s make disparaging remarks like that, since REAL teabaggers are a big part of their constituents. The REAL teabaggers should be offended.

The Sunshine News also has an article about this. Here's my fav part:
Combating the noise of a crowd often more concerned with holding their own conversations and eating their lunches than listening to her speech, Solis attempted to defend the Obama economic policies, praising the federal stimulus that the White House backed and the president’s job plan.
Gotta love it. A figurative FU to the Obama Admin. from his own.

She is such an ignorant moron. A Teabagger if a homosexual. I guess she is tired of the homosexuals taking over everything.

I called her office.

They will no longer ‘take messages’ they have had lots of calls about her vulgar homosexual name calling ‘teabaggers’..but you can leave an email etc.

Now, yesterday when I called the number listed on the website, they gave me the number I called today, that said I would have to email or go to the website..

Run around....

O.K., so now to call the white house and ask why Obama has his appointee’s calling the citizenry the vulgar homosexual term ‘teabaggers’..

Who did all of you call???
