During a speech at Inglewood High School, Rep. Waters said the following:
Yeah I know, I loved it too. However the Teabaggers themselves seem to have gotten their panties in a twist over the statement and have responded by complaining to....wait for it.....President Obama!
Courtesy of, who else, Fox News:
Mark Meckler and Jenny Beth Martin, who lead the Tea Party Patriots, suggested President Obama should step in to put a check on the overheated rhetoric.
"We've had Democrats calling American citizens 'terrorists' and 'hostage takers,' and now an elected Democratic representative says that we can 'go straight to hell.' The president and all leaders of the Democratic Party, who have called for civility in the past, are neglecting to censure their own. Is civility only required from their opponents?" they asked in a statement. "Perhaps it's time for a new-NEW era of civility. ... The president's silence on these latest violations of civility has been deafening, but not surprising."
Really?
So let me see if I have this straight.
The Teabaggers have called this President every ugly name in the book, including a Socialist, a Muslim, a Communist, un-American, the Anti-Christ, and stated categorically that he hates this country, all while fanning the flames of racism, and he is supposed to just take it without complaint?
But when a politician who is angry at what she sees these treasonous bastards doing to her country expresses her first amendment rights, they go running to the very same President that they just spent the last three years vilifying to protect them?
Are you fucking kidding me?
