I guess the American public are a "cult fringe" eh Comrade Tom?? Poll after poll shows majorities want no tax increases. Those wanting them are the minority, the true cult fringe. Sorry, but the GOP isn't falling for it this time--or they better not--raising taxes like the tax obsessed Marxist left is obsessed with in return for spending cuts that will never happen. Come on Iowa, wise up and get rid of this Marxist clown. A sorry old Marxist hack like this calling anyone part of a fringe would be like Casey Anthony calling someone a bad mother.

The cult fringe that respects that peoples’ earnings are presumptively theirs and not Tom Harkin’s to buy votes.

They’re down to name calling. We’re facing opposition from a bunch of mutating lemmings, that refuse to follow the rest of us normal lemmings to safety. It’s this way. We’re all going this way, so it must be right. Forward!

"Democrats are willing to do whatever is necessary to raise the debt ceiling"
---------------------------------------------------------

Anything? Really? Anything? How about cutting spending, Obamacare, tremendously overgrown bueracracy, entitlement reform etc...

This is an artists rendition of my response upon reading this quote: Photobucket

Harkin will be signing copies of his Viet Nam autobiography, “Wings Over Hanoi,” which details how he went toe to toe with North Viet Migs and live to tell about it...

Those awful “cult fringers”, oh the horror. We need to bring back some of Harkin’s “mainstream” buddies in like Nicaraguan Sandinista Daniel Ortega, Grenada's ex dictator Maurice Bishop or Venezuela's Hugo Chavez. Harkin thinks those dudes rock.

“Cult fringe?” Meaning commies like Harkin?

How in hell a Bolshevik like that gets himself elected from a state like Iowa is one of America’s great mysteries.

Let us see who is the lunatic fringe and who doesn’t pay the bills they run up ...

Harkin has been in Washington since 1969...

In 1969, Harkin moved to Washington, D.C., and began work as an aide to Democratic Congressman Neal Smith

junior Senator from Iowa since 1985...

He previously served in the United States House of Representatives (1975–1985).

Harkin came out in favor of the Fairness Doctrine during an interview with Bill Press. (February 11, 2009)

Harkin has been influential in increasing research into alternative medicine. He was instrumental in the creation of the U.S. Office of Alternative Medicine in 1992, which later became the NCCAM. His influence and results, however, have been criticized.

Harkin supported President Barack Obama’s health reform legislation; he voted for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act in December 2009, and he voted for the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010.

He introduced the Americans with Disabilities Act into the Senate. Harkin delivered part of a speech in sign language so his deaf brother could understand

He has opposed most efforts to place legal restrictions on Roe v Wade, including voting against a ban on late term abortion.

As of 2003, Harkin received a 100 percent rating from NARAL, the pro-choice advocacy organization. He was very critical of the Stupak-Pitts Amendment, which places limits on taxpayer-funded abortions.

allow long-time illegal immigrants to gain citizenship with some restrictions, and increase the number of guest workers over and above those already present in the U.S. through a new “blue card” visa program

claiming that he had flown combat missions over North Vietnam, Harkin clarified that he had been stationed in Japan and sometimes flew recently repaired aircraft on test missions over Vietnam

Along with California Senator Barbara Boxer, Harkin is one of only two Senate Democrats to come out in favor of Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold’s resolution to censure President George W. Bush.

His wife Ruth joined a Washington lobbying firm of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, LLP, in 1983

In 2002, Mrs. Harkin became a director of ConocoPhillips

Their daughter Amy appeared on the NBC daytime reality series Starting Over from 2003 to 2004

Hey Tom.. just in case you hadn’t noticed, the “cult fringe” resides firmly and rather comfortably in your party. The GOP House passed CC&B last night, you old fool. You marxists GOT your precious tax when you instituted the mandate portion of Obamacare... after all, your party insisted it was a “tax”... or did you miss that one, too.

And finally, how about chiding your fellow dems about the inconsistence of voting against lifting the debt ceiling back in 2006... dems who include your One.

Probably the only “cult” in the history of mankind worth joining.

It seems to me that these communist democraps are rocketing farther and farther to the left, at light speed, every single day.
When they look back over their shoulder and see mainstream Americans, their individual perspective gives them a view that makes them think that we are fringe kooks but in fact THEY are the FRINGE KOOKS.

THE COMMUNIST PARTY (I quit calling it the democrat party after they passed obamacare) IS DESTROYING AMERICA AND THEY ACTUALLY THINK THEY ARE DOING SOMETHING GOOD. WE ARE IN DANGER AND NEED TO START ACTING LIKE WE ARE AT WAR.

"Democrats are willing to do whatever is necessary to raise the debt ceiling, not for future borrowing but to pay the debts that we racked up in the past. Which, mostly was racked up by a Republican House, a Republican Senate and a Republican President in the last 8 years."

LOL! I wonder if he really believes this?
