  1. Math is hard, example #2,794.
    170 million jobs is 36 million more than actually exist in the USA right now according to the US government. Doesn’t she have an aide who can proof-read?

  2. Quite possible if you count work jobs, snow jobs, hand jobs, blow jobs, and nut jobs like her!

  3. The stupid it burns.
    I keep wondering if the California voters decided we are doomed some years ago and just trying to speed up the collapse of our klepto-bureaucracy, so they can get on with their lives.
    For the fastest way to destroy the do-goods and intellectuals, is to let them have a free hand.

  4. Maybe she ment 170 Mill. people who get a Govt cheque every month.
    Or maybe she wants 170 mill. more people on food stamps.
    The problem is how stupid the voters must be to vote for someone that stupid.

  5. Given she keeps getting reelected in California, this story could also led with O, Sweet Saint Of San Andreas
    Tough decisions.

  6. The comment was made that “170 million jobs will be lost” and not one spark of recognition by anyone in the background that something wrong was said. The two in the back that kept on smiling and dodging their heads were very, very scary. Nice to know that members of Congress can scare the hell out of you just by talking………….

  7. This fit’s under the “malfeasance/incompetance” matter.
    She’s not that stupid….
    Since she has been elected she and her hubby have become millianaires on insider trading…escaping SEC penalties because they are DEMONcRATS.

  8. I’ve always found Foghorn Leghorn’s ,”sharp as a sack of wet mice” pretty descriptive of folks like Maxine.
    As said above, who in hell voted for this woman?!

  9. How DARE you notice that a BLACK woman is a drooling imbecile!
    According to the Watcott ruling, one could notice, and speak heartily about this black woman’s shortcomings, but not speak hatefully about black people as a group.

  10. Waters also said she intends to push for “housing finance reform” and a financial system that “facilitates economic opportunity and wealth creation for all.”
    Wasn’t trying to strong arm financial companies into serving as instruments for social justice a major reason for the mortgage crisis of 2008?
    I expect humanity to repeat historic mistakes – just not that quickly,

  11. On Drudge Report yesterday, there was a story that some Republicans planned to cede power to the Democrats and allow them to spend what they wanted. In an evil way, that would be a great idea. Obama and the retards(Democrats) could then spend as they like and they would have to take total responsibility for their mess. I would like to see them try to play the blame game then. The issue is that the USA is screwed already, let the Chimp in Chief own his retardation once and for all!

  12. Obama and the retards(Democrats) could then spend as they like and they would have to take total responsibility for their mess
    Baby Seal, I think you missed a little detail: spend = borrow. None of todays, in your words, “retards” would ever have to take responsibility.

  13. We need to send Maxine and all those math challenged democrats to live in Obama’s town of CHICONGO. … I coin that term here on March 1st 2013. That way they can make their mess in one place.

  14. She’s there because she offers an unmatched array of talents, including stupidity, vindictiveness, and not least her invincible urban self-esteem. She can never be educated out of her stupidity, and in the other aspects she is the highest reaching ghetto mama ever produced by our hilarious Republic. Perfect for the purposes of the party which holds her, and loves her, and keeps her and guides her.
    She only has this position because the Democrats are the minority. She will never, ever, be the Chairman of that committee. My certainty on this matter brings me no comfort whatsoever.

  15. Don’t be too hard on her, because she’s the cream of the crop. Her constituents obviously saw her as intellectually superior or they wouldn’t have voted for her. Remember that we have Libbie Davis in our own Cabinet so we shouldn’t make fun of Maxine. Well….maybe just a little, but stay on the high road.

  16. I never thought I would ever see the day when I would witness the end of the USA as we knew it.
    I’m not sure they can ever pull themselves out of this decline.
    Ancient Rome, anyone?

  17. Back when I was a lad working on the farm, the old man was into mixed farming. When a sow would have a deformed piglet, and she would not feed it. The old man would say, smack that one between the eyes with a hammer and throw it on the sh*tpile for the ravens. Looks like we missed quite a few……

  18. I am sorry, I can’t even listen to that airhead twit from Kalifornia. My brains start running out my ears and my blood pressure goes off the chart. We have another stupid c*nt like her here in Texas representing the barrio in Houston, by the name of Sheila Jackson-Lee. I cannot abide even hearing her voice she is so mentally challenged.
    But, if you realize who their constituency is, you understand that they are probably the smartest ones in that district, and that in of itself is scary.
    Nothing these idiots say surprise me anymore.
    I see America going the way of the Roman Empire. We are on the verge of the separation that Rome did in the 3rd century. Nothing good came of that split, and this one won’t be good either.
    I think I need to go clean my LR308 now, and reload a couple hundred rounds of .45…

  19. Earth to my fellow conservatives… WE ARE ALREADY IN THE DISASTER. Obama has successfully escaped blame for everything.

  20. No, it would still be the Republicans’ fault, since they should have intervened when it became apparent the disater that was being wrought.
    Seriously, that’s my Sister in law’s argument for why my brother is to blame for everything bad in their family. She of course is responsible for all the good he’s done.

  21. So 170 million will lose their jobs due to sequestration? Taking into account children, retirees and those already unemployed…everybody is losing their job?

  22. PeterJ – wash out your keyboard! Libby Davis in the Cabinet???? Pray she is never even on the government side of the House of Commons.
    The middle three characters of my Captcha are ‘dum’ – good fit for Waters.

  23. “Women and children,women and children, women and children ..”. This little term has been used over and over ad nauseum since they began burning bras, even though many of them thought you couldn’t really be a feminist until you had experienced an abortion. The term “men and children” is never heard. When it is spoken quickly, “women and children” crosses the stage apace, and disappears into the wings of platitude. It is basic feminist screed, and is used to retain maximum sympathy, outrage, support, and etc..

  24. Come on there guys, can’t you see she is mistaking sequestration for segregation. trouble is that as far as politicians go, she may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer but she isn’t the dullest either. Cynthia McKinney quickly comes to mind.

  25. Not an Alpha, not a Beta, possibly an Epsilon!
    O wonder!
    How many goodly creatures are there here!
    How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world,
    That has such people in’t.

  26. To think she has a lot of influence in the US government. Sad and pathetic. Even more pathetic are those who would elect such a useless human to power.
    Let us not be too critical, as Canada has similar nutcases in power in many provinces and some just itching to take power again in Canada.
    Someone mentioned Rome. Many public policy issues and trends in the US and Canada are similar to Rome after the fall of the republic in 43 BC.
    Caligula’s senatorial horse was not the first.

  27. Ironic that Rome, the world power of the day was defeated by Germany (Germania) and once again Europe is creeping towards possible domination by the same power. Our threats are intercontinental and our present ally/enemy (China) could well be the Germania we will face in the future. Obama fiddles while Rome burns. History has a ugly way of repeating itself and there are parallels that should not be ignored. Nero and Caligula were both products of a dying Empire. I believe Obama is too.jw7yc4

  28. If you think government spending cuts create hardship, wait ’till you see hyperinflation!

  29. I sense panic on the part of the Dems. Obamas deceitful tactics are coming back to haunt him at last. Now is *not* the times for the Republicans to cave. If they cave this time you might as well turn off the lights on the USA.

  30. …and I can just see some secretary getting fired for not proof reading the info “as you know I’m not good with figures”
