Rep. Maxine Waters: 'The tea party can go straight to hell' - latimes.com

Well that certainly gets to the point, doesn't it...

I'm not crazy about that type of language, but on the other hand, if Allen West said something like, "Debbie Wasserman-Schultz can go straight to hell", I have no doubt that conservatives and Republicans would be cheering him on and calling him a hero.

That's fine as long as she goes straight to the courts to explain her transgressions.

A lot of them don't seem to walk the talk, so if the talk turns out to be true, well .....

Maxine Waters should join them on the express route. She is a worthless piece of trash that simply spews rhetoric and does nothing to help this country.

No one's ever accused Maxine Waters of beating around the bush, that's for sure. In any case, comments like that don't help. They only pour gasoline on the fire.
