Joe Barton WAS RIGHT!!! Obama Shook Down BP for 20 Bil and GOP Too Damn Timed To Call it What It Is

Cowardly Republicans

We are a nation of laws and Rep Joe Barton is absolutely in the right for calling out President Obama who has no legal authority to extort monies from BP the way he did without the benefit of due process.

This is the United States!



I am so sick and tired of these spineless, gutless, pussy-livered Republicans like Rep. Jeff Miller (R-Fla.), and House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) who always, always, ALWAYS at any sign of media-driven criticism, fold each and every time.

They are too fucking PC-conscious to ever be effective against this Stalinist president who wouldn’t hesitate to cut their throats, pull the race card, or call them defenders of the big mean and greedy oil company.

Instead of calling for Barton to step down for what he said, Jeff Miller and John Boehner should just put on a skirt and panties and let Sarah Palin, Jan Brewer, and Michelle Bachmann wear the pants because I see no reason for these guys to continue the pretense of being men!

From The Hill:

Pussy # 1 Rep. Jeff Miller (R-Fla.), said:

"I condemn Mr. Barton’s statement. Mr. Barton’s remarks are out of touch with this tragedy and I feel his comments call into question his judgment and ability to serve in a leadership on the Energy and Commerce Committee,"

Joe Barton said:

“It is a tragedy of the first proportion that a private corporation [BP] can be subjected to what I would characterize as a shakedown, in this case a $20 billion dollar shakedown,”

Jeff Miller additional comments:

“I am shocked by Congressman Joe Barton’s reprehensible comments that the government should apologize for the ‘shakedown’ of BP. BP has caused the greatest ecological and environmental disaster our nation has ever seen. They are the responsible party and they should pay for losses and damages, not the taxpayer. I am optimistic and hopeful that BP acted in good faith by opening the $20 million escrow account, as several of us have requested."

Pussy # 2 John Boehner (R-Ohio) comment:

"I have said since the beginning that BP ought to be held responsible for every dime of this tragedy. And they ought to be held accountable to stop the leak and get it cleaned up as soon as possible.”

BP has said all along that they are responsible for the spill, but that’s not the issue here. If these weak-kneed GOP politicians don’t have the stomach for the fight to point out when the president oversteps his authority, then pack up and GO HOME!

WE NEED FIGHTERS, NOT COWARDS!
