Rep. Maxine Waters: 'The tea party can go straight to hell'
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Los Angeles) came out swinging against Republicans in Congress on Saturday as she addressed the unemployed during a forum in Inglewood.
The event occurred a day after new statistics were released showing that California's jobless rate last month went up to 12%, from 11.8%. California now has the second-highest rate of unemployment in the nation, trailing only Nevada at 12.9%, and its jobless rate is well above the U.S. average of 9.1%.
Waters vowed to push Congress to focus on creating more jobs. "I'm not afraid of anybody," said Waters. "This is a tough game. You can't be intimidated. You can't be frightened. And as far as I'm concerned, the 'tea party' can go straight to hell."

I wonder if she ever considered that HER party is the source of most of the anti-business legislation that has chased so many US jobs offshore, and has eliminated and prevented so many jobs that could so easily be "created" here. Offshore of Los Angeles is a whole lot of easily accessed oil - but you know, Mother Gaea don't like it if you poke holes in her ocean floors.
The fact that your party has led the charge to raise taxes and the national debt, causing ever more businesses that might hire people to back away out of fear of the future might also be something to think about, Maxine.
CONgress creating jobs - I'm sure they can - but can America afford the kind of jobs they create?
