Maxine Waters is smarter than Sheila Jackson-Lee, but only barely. And Sheila is tied with Cynthia McKinney for the title of World's DUmbest Human. Apparently, Maxine made some statement after the muslim's speech this evening that was not in full agreement with his plan to delay capitulation until 2011.

Original message
anyone think Maxine Waters should have kept her trap shut cause pigeons flew out when she opened it?
Just had the distasteful experience of seeing another Democrat who was clearly unqualified to speak on foreign policy nevertheless holding forth, following Obama's speech at West Point. Every time "we" do this, "we" provide ammunition to the drones who claim that the whole Party is a bunch of pantywaists and incompetent to lead the nation abroad. Rather than that only being true about specific individual members.
Democratic Party members who have the opportunity to make public appearances:
BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH, CHECK WITH YOUR BRAIN WHETHER YOU HAVE SOMETHING WORTHWHILE TO SAY. AND TELL YOUR EGO NOT TO INTERRUPT.

4. Maxine Waters has been on Capitol Hill for almost 20 years.
How many years was Obama on Capitol Hill? Two if you don't count the two years he was running for President.
Ouch!

9. this shit is great. An intellect and knowledge test, leave purity to the drones here.
the fog of war is particularly thick here these days. Sad that we've sunk this low. What a ****ing joke.
Sadly, this DUmmy is 100% right:

10. are you kidding?
Maxine is far more experienced with foreign policy than Obama. That's a fact!
The fact we have a President who is less qualified than Maxine Waters is frightening indeed.

13. What a juvenile OP
And sexist as well. She's just as qualified to speak on foreign policy as any long-term member of Congress.
I'm proud that she hasn't forgotten what our Party stands for. I'm so sick of this 'enemy of the day' mentality, where you people are so willing to shit on anyone who dares disagree with the president.

17. Wow. Maxine Waters, one of the heroines of the left , and certainly qualified
to speak on foriegn policy, is now demeaned on DU. Times certainly have changed and not for the better.
I wonder how it would feel to have Maxine Waters as a heroine.
