Not well made-up enough.

Just saw Maxine Waters trying to grill the oil company execs and end up falling flat on her well made-up face. She threatened to nationalize the oil industry, and admitted that she was a liberal and a socialist (shocking!) Shep Smith cut to the Fox reporter and asked how the remark about nationalization went with the execs. The reporter said that the chairman of Shell responded by comparing Maxine to Hugo Chavez. I'm loving it.
Maybe Mazine will piss em off badly enough that one of will come out of his box.
Hugo Chavez, only second to Bin Laden, would make a perfect running mate for Hussein Obama. Two socialist/terrorists out to destroy America; what better platform could the Liberal DemoRATS have????
Not well made-up enough.
She called herself a liberal, and said she would "socialize" the industry. (I just replayed it on my DVR.)
I saw it. She starting to say “socialize” but then realized she was using the wrong word and paused for a long time trying to scan the empty spaces of her brain for the word “nationalize” but couldn’t come up with it. The person near her was about to lose it.
Classic Congressional Hearing 101:
Bloviating 99
facts 1
In just seconds during the Glenn Beck show tonite a 3 second conversation between Glennn Beck and T. Boone Pickens:
Glenn Beck (playing Congress): “What is goin’ on heah”?
T. Boone Pickens: “Supply is 85 Million bbl/Day; Demand is 86.4 Million bbl/day......Price goes up.”
Case closed
ie, Congress bloviated for 2 days and didn’t come up with an answer due to the confrontational method of venom v. capitalism! Blame America, Blame capitalism, Blame Oil.......Glenn Beck 3 seconds to get answer from someone who knows! (not to detract from the emminence of the Oil CEO team sitting across from congress!)
Congress: Busted
America: screwed ‘til we get rid of Congress, and start drilling again!
Maybe, but I think Cindy is a mental giant compaired to Maxine. :)
she’s from one of the safest of safe D districts
where the HS graduation rate is is single digits.
There was no tape of his response, but the reporter said that he replied that he had heard that same sone before from Hugo Chavez.
Any more good reasons why conservatives should sit out the general election or vote loser third or fourth party.
I can promise you that this ugly as sin old gal is stupid as a box of rocks.
She may not always show openly her hatred for America but would be willing to bet the farm that she hates and blames whitey for all things bad in this country.
I would also bet she blindly support Obomba’s Marxists views.
She would like nothing more than to nationalize our oil industry thereby guaranteeing that we would have gas rationing in a short time.
The Shell CEO put the Dumb Beach in her place that is if she is smart enough to understand that he put her down.
Fox reporter James Rosen paraphrased the reply from the Shell chairman.
Here is Rosen's exact quote to Shepard Smith, "Basically by saying, 'We've seen this movie before; it's called Hugo Chavez and Venezuela'."
That’s what the communist nations do. Maxine is still on track.
I’m pretty sure Shell is headquartered in the Netherlands.
Waters has finally shown her true colors.
When monies were being voted for the victims of the Twin Towers, Waters and her cronies held up the appropriations until she could attach a rider giving money to “all of her constituents”.
She is a liar and thief and I wish she would get term limited out.
She was facing off against five well educated, middle-aged, rich white guys. It must have been like looking into her own personal vision of hell.
Well, when I saw the headline, the very first thing I thought was “but it’s worked so well for Hugo Chavez!”
Actually, given the amount of control that the government exerts over the oil industry as it is now, it’s pretty close to being nationalized. With the exception of the fact that the shareholders get to keep their profits, or at least a portion of them.
Where are Hank Reardon and Ellis Wyatt when you need them?
Mark
It is called "Royal Dutch Shell" for a reason. The company is wholly owned by the Dutch.
Outsourced to countries with more favorable taxes and less regulation. Wyatt has lots of good raw materials in the Canadian oil sands...easier than his first cut at oil shale. Hank is making Reardon metal in a place not infested by unions.
Sounds like SOMEONE is wanting to be Obama’s VP candidate!!!!!
I saw this and those sitting next to her (on both sides) were snickering at her. What an idiot she is!
