Befitting the catastrophic stupidity of this idea, she doesn’t even know what the proper term for it is. I’m sitting here telling myself that Shep and the Foxies must have taken this out of context somehow since it would seem rather newsworthy and yet there’s not a single article about it on the wires that I can find. Go figure. But here you go, one of the most alarming collectivist ad libs by a mainstream American politician since the last creepy thing Hillary said, whatever that may be. Viva Chavez!

The oil industry should nationalize Congress. Hell, these companies have so much money they could make individual congressmen offers they could not refuse. We’d probably be surprised how little it takes.

"Yep! Good ol Bill uses his show to knock big oil, saying that they shouldn't’t have the right to make so much money off of a product that is a necessity. That the government should control necessities like energy, etc."

He lost credibility with Conservatives long ago in my opinion. He should link up with Obama or Hillary and be done with it.

LOL She’s uglier than Hugo though. And probably dumber too.

The question you have to ask is who truly is dumber. Hugo and Maxine or the dimwits who elected them.

LOL! That otta help. Democrats have stymied all efforts of domestic oil production, drilling and exploration for 30 years. It would be much simpler, helpful and economically sound for the citizens to just fire the democrats before they turn us into another Zimbabwe.

He proved he was a horses behind a LONG time ago to me, before the factor. He was sitting in on radio in New York, subbing for someone on WABC. He basically only knows the talking points about any given subject and then just “bloviates”, he’s an actor. Once he takes a position, even if it’s dead wrong or he doesn’t even understand it fully, he will just go balls out with the theatrics.

He hasn’t changed, he figured out being a “personality” works, forget about any depth of thought or critical thinking from that clown.

Yes they have. And McCain tossed his hat in that arena when is came to Anwar. Hang in because we are in for a rough ride.

It’s starting to seem like more Americans agree with her unfortunately. BOR is one of them!

Watchit fella. There's a lot of FReepers that love Bill O'Reilly.

I'm not one of them. The man is a bore. Stooopid too.

Quite often the electorate is a lot dumber than the crooks they elect. In Hugo and Maxine’s cases I think they win.

It isn't often the case it is always the case. You get what you pay for.

“Hey Maxine, Venezuela is 2,000 miles to the south.”

What’re they paying for gas?

No, it isn’t always the case. Some people elect good politicians.
