Poor Maxine Waters seems to be confused. We realize it’s tough to tell the difference between a confused Maxine Waters and the normal Maxine Waters, so let’s just let Maxine be Maxine.
In this case, the California Democrat seems to be confused about who wants to do something to turn the economy around and who wants to continue the policies that got us into this mess. In her confusion she lashed out at the Tea Party.
The Los Angeles Times explains:
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Los Angeles) came out swinging against Republicans in Congress on Saturday as she addressed the unemployed during a forum in Inglewood.
The event occurred a day after new statistics were released showing that California’s jobless rate last month went up to 12%, from 11.8%. California now has the second-highest rate of unemployment in the nation, trailing only Nevada at 12.9%, and its jobless rate is well above the U.S. average of 9.1%.
Waters vowed to push Congress to focus on creating more jobs. “I’m not afraid of anybody,” said Waters. “This is a tough game. You can’t be intimidated. You can’t be frightened. And as far as I’m concerned, the ‘tea party’ can go straight to hell.”
More than 1,000 people attended “Kitchen Table Summit,” which was designed to give the jobless an opportunity to vent to elected officials and share their struggles about finding a job.
Typical liberal concept. “Come on down. We won’t do anything to help you get a job, but we’ll explore your feelings about how tough it is to get a job.

Don't know if you've heard of Larry Elder- He's a talking head out of LA who's written a couple of pretty interesting books and articles about the human condition... and about idiots in politics. Here's the lead and a link:
"Waters' list of insults, vulgarities and blame-whitey scapegoating easily makes her the Al Sharpton of Congress."

The uglier, the angrier
Oh Maxine.....what happened during the two years your party controlled everything, a time when the tea party was nothing more than a paragraph in 5th grade history books.
Yes, that's correct, you can shut the hell up now.
If you will allow me to twist her words much less than Liberals twist our words on a daily basis, I believe she just threatened my life.
Hell vs. Inglewood
Who can tell me the difference?
You can find Inglewood on a US map.
Hell is there, too. They just labeled it Pomona, CA.
Outside of going to The Forum(the old home of the Lakers & Kings), why would anyone go there?
TYPICAL DEMOTARD!
If the Tea Partiers can go straight to hell, Maxine best start immediately trying to get the city limits of Inglewood extended a lot further than they are now because there's going to be a population explosion there. Did she get those glasses out of a Cracker Jack box? I doubt it because she don't like 'crackers'. Obama basically promised all the black folks more wealth and happiness and he hinted to the 3 million illegals here that he would get them amnesty if they voted him in. But,,,,He's done nothing. He LIED (surprisingly.) I have the feeling that he would like to bring on a race war so he'll have an excuse to order martial law and try to take our guns away from us. Then we have our revolution. Dick Cheney had numerous stockades built all over the country just for this purpose, so the government waits silently by.
I'm beginning to get a sneaking suspicion that the Congressional Black Caucus is really a "flash mob" in disguise....
It was reported last night that the African-American Democratic Congresswoman Frederica Wilson said at a townhall in Miami:"Let us remember who the real enemy is. The real enemy is the Tea Party." Is it just me or do a number of liberals talk worse about Americans than terrorists? I've accused Olivia a couple of times in our exchanges of demonizing conservative Christians while at the same time she does backflips defending Islam.
That's because Olivia works for Al-Jazeera.
eek! Hell would be waking up next this old slapper. What a horror!
