ABC News' Z. Byron Wolf reports: Don’t mess with Mary Landrieu.

The Democratic Senator from Louisiana has had about enough of people criticizing the clause she helped put into the Senate version of health care reform and she took to the Senate floor today, giving a fiery defense of special funding for Louisiana that Republicans have derisively nicknamed “the Louisiana Purchase” – implying the language was put in to buy Landrieu’s vote.

Today on the Senate floor, Landrieu her naysayers to “keep their mouth shut.”

She pointed out that Republicans in Louisiana, including Governor Bobby Jindal and a good number of Republican Congressmen, have all asked publicly for Louisiana to be given the extra money to meet its Medicaid commitments.

And what the dickens is she referring to anyway. You saying, ma’am, that Jindal asked for the Louisiana Purchase?

Lots of civility there, huh!

Heard she went off on David Vitter recently but of course only a few news sources picked it up and not much came of the incident. She is such a jerk. Hope to be rid of her in 2012

Sweet. I’m going to do that next time. Although, I think that the only ones who will read the cards are the handlers. She could care less what the masses think, at least that is how it appears.

Oooooo feisty little bitch isn't she? Another deranged demoRAT threatening anyone who opposes her. Let's see now....Hmmmmm during Katrina Mary Landrieu threatened to punch GW Bush if he criticized or made any mention of the botched local & state emergency plans (or lack thereof). That should have been investigated as a threat against the president. It would now under the totalitarian regime of 0bozo the commie pig. And now she tells anyone (ie Republicans) who criticizes the Louisiana Purchase to "keep their mouth shut". I hope that any Republicans would actually go head to head with this angry bitch. Typical demoRAT female!
