Apology to Maxime Waters.
Edited on Tue Feb-24-09 06:13 PM by Mike 03
I'm watching her right now on CSPAN addressing the second panel of today's hearing held by The House Financial Services Subcmte...

She may not be a economist or financial services genius, but she definitely cares about her constituents, and I do definitely give her enormous credit for this, and her sincerity as well.

She's a good person, and I am sorry I ridiculed her for her interview of various witnesses in the past, on this committee.

At least she is trying incredibly hard to equalize the benefits of the stimulus package. She's doing the right thing, and I was being pompous with I criticized her. She deserves my respect, and I give it to her.

My bad.

Go, Maxime, go!

5. Good grief. The M & N are next to one another.
Find something important to rant about.

2. Maxine's da woman.
She has served one of the poorest districts in Los Angeles County with dedication and true progressiveness for many years. She may not be as educated as the other representatives but she's a far better person and legislator than many of them.

3. Love Maxine!
If I was ever in a fight, I'd want her in my corner. She's loyal, gives 110%, and plays hard.

10. She's like Kucinich...
in that many times, she is the lone voice in the wilderness.

11. "I care" should be her middle names.
