Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Friday, June 26, 2009

Two liberal Democrats launched into a verbal argument that turned physical on the floor of the House Thursday night during a debate over an appropriations earmark one was seeking, according to Roll Call.


Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., and Appropriations Chairman David Obey, D-Wis., split apart from a heated conversation and began yelling at one another.


"You're out of line," Waters shot while walking down toward the well.


"You're out of line," Obey shot back before turning and walking away.


But then Obey stopped, turned back toward Waters, and shouted: "I'm not going to approve that earmark!"

At least she didn't beat him with a gutta percha cane.

(Come on you history buffs)

"The cane that Congressman Preston Brooks used to beat Senator Charles Sumner on the floor of the United States Senate was made out of gutta-percha wood."

We have a winnah!

"We have a winnah!"

Firstly, I'd like to thank the Retort Academy for making all this possible. I'd like to than Corky, for giving me the in I needed to initially get noticed. I'd like to thank Chair and Rob for... well, you know. But mostly I'd like to thank Wikipedia for curing my relative ignorance and making it seem like I already knew things I did not.

Blow kisses Hag!

Damn. We haven't had a good caning on the House floor for far too long.

As a resident of Los Angeles, I have to say that anyone screaming at Maxine Waters, regardless of party, is a good thing.

Obey rejected that earmark as violating policies against so-called "monuments to me."

Good for him. She's as much a narcissist as Barack Hussien, who'll be lucky to have a street named for him in Camden by the time he's done his bankrupting.

The Keystone Kongress

David Obey is a POS. She should have belted that little prick.

She could be mad since Byrd has several federally-sponsored built buildings, hospitals, highways, outhouses--named after him. And he's still alive last check.

But he is in the Senate and she's in the House.


Political Class Envy.
