Committee chairmanship
will be time for paybacks

If Democrats
take over the House in the midterm elections, Maxine Waters has some scores to
settle.
The
California congresswoman told a group of constituents what’s in store for her
enemies, should she gain the chairmanship of the Financial Services Committee.
“We have an
election November 6th,” Waters said. “This is big. This may be the most
important one that you’ve ever had to experience.
“This is the
midterm election and often times people only vote in the presidential election
because they don’t think this is important enough. But this is absolutely
important,” she lectured.
“First of
all, if we take back the House, most of the members of the Congressional Black
Caucus will be chairs of the committees of the Congress of the United States of
America,” Waters said, waving her fingers as the audience applauded.
“I will be
the first African-American, the first woman to chair the powerful Financial Services
Committee.
“That’s all
of Wall Street. That’s all the insurance companies, that’s all the banks. And
so, of course, the CEOs of the banks now are saying, ‘What can we do to stop
Maxine Waters because if she gets in she’s going to give us a bad time?'” she
said.
“I have not
forgotten you foreclosed on our houses,” she warned.
“I have not
forgotten that you undermined our communities,” she continued with the tone of
a preacher.
“I have not
forgotten that you sold us those exotic products, had us sign on the dotted
line for junk,” she yelled, “and for mess that we could not afford.”
“I have
people who are homeless who have never gotten back into a home. What am I going
to do to you?
“What I am
going to do to you is fair. I’m going to do to you what you did to us,” she
vowed.
Governance
by retribution. What could go wrong?
Maxine’s mob
loved it, bursting into cheers.
