Congresswoman exposes hypocrisy of Democrat outrage over dismissal of FBI director
By Edmund Kozak, LifeZette:
After having called for James Comey’s firing as recently as last week, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) now suggests the dismissal of the FBI director by President Donald Trump is proof the White House is up to something nefarious.
The Democratic congresswoman — designated the “Most Corrupt Member of Congress” by the left-leaning Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington organization in 2005, 2006, 2009, 2011 and 2017 — gave a confused, rambling defense of her criticism of President Donald Trump’s firing of James Comey on Wednesday.
“To be clear, you believe it would have been better to keep in place an FBI director who you said had no credibility to oversee this investigation than to find someone who you think would be a better choice?” MSNBC host Peter Alexander asked Waters.
“No, but I believe the president thought that,” she replied.
“But you said he had no credibility!” Alexander shot back.
Eventually Alexander got to the heart of the matter — and to the heart of Waters’ hypocrisy.
“So if Hillary Clinton had won the White House, would you be recommending that she fire FBI director James Comey?” asked Alexander.
“If she had won the White House, I believe that given what he did to her and what he tried to do, she should have fired him, yes,” replied Waters.
“So she should have fired him, but he shouldn’t have fired him? That’s why I’m confused,” Alexander responded.

Publication Releases the Top 5 Reasons Maxine Waters Should Be Our Next President…and it’s Hilarious!
The ultra left publication Salon produced another gem for the world to see this week. An editor at large, D. Watkins, created a video with the Top 5 Reasons that Maxine Waters Should be Our Next President – Lord help us.
In the hilariously off-the-mark video Watkins rants and raves about Waters, who is among the least respected Democratic Congresswomen in the House, citing comical reasons as to why he feels she is the best candidate to lead us forward during these difficult times.
Keep in mind, Maxine Waters is the same candidate, much like fellow Californian Nancy Pelosi, who often seems incapable of coherent speech and appears to be mentally unfit to serve. Some highlights from recent speeches include her condemnation of Russia’s Vladimir Putin for invading Korea – interesting.
In another recent speech, while placating to the growing millennial generation, she stated “I was a millennial once.” No Maxine, sorry dear. You are not and were not a millennial, but I digress.
Here are the five reasons Watkins and Salon think that she is the answer for the US. Enjoy.
Reason Number 5:
Maxine Waters understands the people, because she is the fifth of thirteen children. They further emphasized her work ethic and experience by reminding viewers that she started work at the age of 13 in segregated restaurants.
We have no ill feelings toward those working in restaurants, and we are certainly opposed to the atrocities that occurred during the dark times of segregation – but this has ZERO to do with being a capable leader, and certainly not our next President.
Reason Number 4:
She has a reputation for being a fearless and outspoken leader. She is an advocate for women, children, blacks and pretty much everyone that was left out of the Trump campaign.
We feel like you need more depth and truth to this comment as your charges of President Trump are untrue, but alas we continue…
Reason Number 3:
Maxine Waters was actually one of the few people against the Iraq war (nope), something that Hillary Clinton, George W. Bush, President Trump and John McCain never truly understood.
Just hilarious!
Reason Number 2:
“Maxine loves the millennials and we love her back,” he said. “She’s learning the language and uses the internet.”
Take a break and laugh out loud. YES, Maxine Waters speaks the millennial language and USES THE INTERNET so she is the best candidate for President! Why wait until 2020? Let’s get her into the Oval Office now!
Reason Number 1:
She is not afraid to attack the right.
We know, we were disappointed with the top reason too. Far less hilarious than the previous four, however, her attacks on Republicans ARE funny so there is some silver lining to this reason.
We hope you enjoyed this as much as we did. If you do not believe these absurd statements to be true, watch the video on Salon here, And for the love of God, do not support Maxine Waters for President – or any elected position for that matter.
