Please let me be the first to say it….. LIAR!

DRAIN THE SWAMP …

Some times your words come back to bite you, especially when a politician gleefully states that another is guilty, guilty, guilty of violating House rules. One never knows when that ethics things comes back to bite you.

Maxine Waters (D-CA) stated back in 1995 that the American people do not appreciate double standards and what is good for the goose is good for the gander. She also stated that no one should be able to break House rules or be above the law without suffering consequences.

CatOnGlue   August 13th, 2010 - 3:45 pm

She doesn't read very well. Maybe that should be a standardized test to become a Congressman.

BTW, did you see that hand come up at the end. I thought I was watching an Addams Family rerun for a second. Of course Waters fit right in with the script.

freedom rocks   August 13th, 2010 - 3:47 pm

This conservative would be all about, incarcerating, uh I mean putting in jail, Congresswoman Waters.

CatOnGlue   August 13th, 2010 - 3:50 pm

Of course she is. She didn't even write that crap. All the words with three or more syllables she stumpled over.

Capt_Knuckles   August 13th, 2010 - 3:50 pm

Just a ko-inkydink that your husband had $360,000+ invested in this bank that was tanking and you got it federal money…Hmmm

How many death row convicts proclaim to be innocent? She may be mostly guilty of being ignorant of the law. An offence many could be guilty of, BUT Maxine Waters is a representitive of the People and MUST be held to a higher standard.

Wow! thats one horrendously ugly swamp thing.

Two previous trials ended in hung juries. It took three trials to find him guilty. Too bad the socialist regime's DOJ does not pursue terrorists and criminals so aggressively. Toke on that. And, by the way, Maxine Waters is a dirt bag, communist loving crook.

'LAME DUCK' PRESIDENCY FOR THANKSGIVING…GUARANTEED!

America…did Maxine just say "socialist"…oh I'm sorry…that was another meeting when she was supposed to give the 'talking points' of the Democratzi 'loons' and stupidly expressed what their real intent was!

Maxine Waters if happy to muddy the
waters with more lies and misinformation
and she hopes you will believe
her now because somebody was stupid
enough to believe her before.

skipper99   August 13th, 2010 - 4:37 pm

Waters, Rangel, Obama, Schumer, Dodd, Franks, Pelosi, these are the BEST that the imbeciles who voted for them could muster. These idiots never should have been elected to begin with, let alone re-elected. At some point those who voted for and support these dirt bags got to wake up and realize they are lower than scum. In the private sector these crooks would be arrested and charges and trial date set. Congress is a charade for the morally unfit.

You can't make this stuff up… Now Maxine Waters (D-CA), IS BLAMING BUSH for her own lack of morals, lack of ethics and corruption!

Maxine Waters (D-CA) Blames Bush! http://usataxpayer.org/htm/vids.asp?A=32085108

Maxine Waters (D-CA) – By using her position as a member of Congress to assist a bank in which her husband was a stockholder, Rep. Waters violated House conflict-of-interest rules and engaged in conduct that does not reflect creditably upon the House. Waters did not disclose her financial ties to OneUnited Bank to Treasury officials in her letters requesting meetings between regulators and bank officials. Treasury officials claimed that although OneUnited also requested a meeting with regulators regarding Fannie and Freddie Mac losses, it wasn't until Waters intervened that the Treasury approved a meeting.

A Democrat lies about everything (Obama), cheats on his taxes (Rangle), sells influence (Waters), lies about his military service (Blumenthal), sells his vote (Stupak), has an extramarital affair (Clinton), accepts bribes (Murtha RIP), takes bribes (Jefferson), buys a Senate seat (Jackson), backs underage sex-trafficking (Cleaver), lives with a pimp (Frank), lies about racism (Carnahan), gropes a masseuse (Gore), and on and on and on…

THEY ARE DEMOCRATS and IT IS EXPECTED OF THEM! They have no morals, there is no God, praise homosexuals, be politically correct, kill your baby, tax global warming, embrace illegals, bigger government is the answer to everything. THE MOST CORRUPT DEMOCRAT IS THE MOST EXALTED.

This doosh may not have violated House rules, but she certainly has violated US law. Apparently, moral character is not a prerequisite to serve in congress. If congress serves no function, except to confiscate and redistribute our income, then what exactly is their function?? They are certainly not listening to the people.

Ahhh! She is just delighful, isn't Affirmative Action a great thing?

BHO_UMM_UMM_UMM   August 13th, 2010 - 5:49 pm

Using your Democrat Congressional office to steer tax dollars to cover private investment losses and to protect your spouse's job is perfectly okay in an Obama administration and Democrat Congress with their carefully crafted tiered justice system. If you want these perks, turn Democrat, dump morality and ethics and get your own ass a Democrat seat in Congress.

Waters, Rangel, Jefferson, these people are forking pirates looting the booty of the good ship America. Jefferson buried his deep in his freezer.

Why is her District still impoverished and with high crimes? This alone should be a major ethics offense in itself …and so many other Congress members should be brought up on this same charge.

Actually, I did see that on this Breitbart site, from the steady stream of articles from the wire services. You are just confusing Breitbart op-ed with news stories. Stupid people like you who don't know the difference are the reason the prince of fools is in the white house.

H2K   August 13th, 2010 - 7:21 pm

Why do these loudmouth urban politicians lie, cheat, and do other unethical things, then pound their fist on the table at the outrage they have for those that bring this to light? They couldn't possibly think that if they show fierce indignation, that their constituents will continue to re-elect them?

…oh…nevermind.

Maxine and the (Jewish) Bloomberg: “I Don’t Care Where Mosque money Comes From!” Do these political pundits like the Jewish Bolsheviks, who thought they had superior intelligence too, by aiding and abetting leaders and political factions, gain favor?
Joe Stalin played them for perfect fools too, as did Adolph Hitler, killing every one of them after gaining power. These are suicidal Jewish demigods, who Muslims and Obama use as ponds in an ocean death, Allah released to convert to Islam.
Now history will add B. Obama a Muslim to the list mass killers, for abortion on demand for anyone to abort (kill) a child at any age, one day to nine months old, with no survival right, a double murder at tax payer’s expense, because he knows no Muslim will ever have an abortion. And if you’re over 60 you best “take the pill” and die Obama said, his legal infidel genocide Health Care Plan, that’s what he has put that into law, this devil Imam with his mumbo jumbo of Muslim indoctrination and beliefs of back stabbing and his lying over and over, he uses as his Muslim right of passage to Mecca.

The L.A. riots will pale in comparison to what the Muslim Obama and Muslim brotherhood have planned for the infidel nation of the United States of America. So vote every Demoncrap out of office before it is to late.

But at least she will see where Barry stands. Obama,like Rush has said from the beginning, is out for himself. Obama does not stand behind anyone, if it adversely affects him. If we thought Nixon had an enemy's list, Obama's list must be really long and growing.

"I have not violated any House rules" and I'm not guilty.

Our prisons are full of those with the same story.

The fact that you read a prepared and vetted statement makes we wonder whose words were your reading. Certainly not yours. Please resign.
