Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Piggy Snout) Calls Republicans “Terrorists”…

New tone.

(NBC News) — A senior Democratic congressman likened Republican lawmakers to terrorists on Thursday for their insistence on tying approval of construction of a new oil pipeline to must-pass legislation.

California Rep. Henry Waxman, the top Democrat on the House Energy and Commerce Committee and the coauthor of the 2009 cap-and-trade climate change bill, decried efforts by the GOP to force the Obama administration into approving a permit for the Keystone XL Pipeline.

“They want to use legislation as a way to act like terrorists. They hold things as hostage,” Waxman said. “We almost couldn’t fund the government because Republicans wanted to hold that idea hostage, we almost couldn’t pay our debts because the Republicans wanted to hold that legislation hostage to their extreme agenda, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they scuttled this conference by trying to hold us hostage.”

Waxman was referring specifically to rumblings from Republicans that they might attach the provision to legislation extending a payroll tax cut through the end of 2012. Waxman is one of the 20 bipartisan negotiators who are working to reach an agreement on that extension by Feb. 29, when the current extension is set to expire.

    Well of course the Republicans are terrorists.

    They’re terrorizing the ability of the liberals to hold oppressive power over the people of the United States of America.

    …So, they called it correctly. Terrorist.

    Since it’s you Dems who are trying to destroy this country and enslave the next 5 generations by a mountain of debt, I would suggest that it is you Waxman, and your cohorts, who are the terrorists.

    Last time I checked, the actual terrorists have pretty much moved on from simple hostage-taking.

This coming from this nasty , little worm that has nothing but caused trouble for the United States is passed laughable.

    Isn’t “holding hostage” what the Dems pulled when Pelosi was speaker by ramming Obamacare down our throats?

    Yet another poster child for term limits. Couldn’t make it as a lawyer, so at age 30 (39 years ago) he entered political life in California on the uber-liberal side. His brain is as small as his 5’5″ stature.

    Henry “the evil elf” Waxman, and the rest of the Dems seek to make the word “terrorist” as meaningless and benign as the word “racist”.

    Man, Democrats are UGLY.

    I would love for Henry to encounter some real terrorists. Where are those Somali Pirates when you need one? Hell, they probably would expel him, even they would have a hard time looking at him.

    The abuse of such words is really getting old.

    You mean like Bill Ayers, Waxman? Like the Weather Underground? Or like how Obama is using our tax dollars to support Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood?
    Those kinds of terrorists?

    These are the kids who got teased in school. Never learned to compete. Always resented the kids who did well on merit or talent. The losers are now grown up and looking to settle the score by leveling the playing field.

    He just mocked the modern day Holocaust. Piggy-snout needs to apologize to families of all the innocent, man, woman, children and Jews killed by actual terrorists. How dare he besmirch and belittle their deaths for political propaganda.

    Looking at his picture, I say Porky Waxdick grinds his pig teeth a lot. Mayhaps, his should start on some xanax and he then could keep his snout closed more. Everything this porkine oinker says makes him out to be a blowhard liberal gasbag. Oink!

    Waxman’s head will explode when he hears about this …

    TransCanada Corp. may shorten the initial path for its rejected Keystone XL project, bringing oil from Montana’s Bakken Shale to refiners in the Gulf of Mexico and removing the need for federal approval. ‘There certainly is a potential opportunity to connect the Bakken to the Gulf Coast,’ Alex Pourbaix, TransCanada’s president of energy and oil pipelines, said in a telephone interview today. ‘That is obviously something we’ll be looking into over the next few weeks.’ TransCanada’s $7 billion Keystone XL proposal to bring crude from Canada’s oil sands to the Gulf was rejected yesterday by the Obama administration. The project required U.S. approval because it crossed the border with Canada. The company may seek that approval after it builds the segment from Montana to the Gulf, Pourbaix said.

    Canada owns rights to oil shale in Utah as well, and has identified and proved large resources there, and they are going after other properties ‘within’ the USA.

    So I think Canada really is a friend who realizes Obama and the liberals are on a ‘destroy America’ campaign, and lying nonstop to attempt to complete their deception of the American government and economy, and steal the election. But everything the liberals are doing is based on lies.

    Canada knows this… they will bide their time to see how the election comes out, and if Obama is ousted, the deal will be brought back.

    Let’s stay focused on getting the liars exposed, and kicking them out!!

    By the way HOGNOSE Waxman could only succeed in government, he could not succeed in a business where he had to compete on merit.

    Hognose!

    As for Sheila “Silverback” J Lee, she looks like a gorilla in a dress.

    Hognose is a hog!
