"Elizabeth Warren needs to be neutered!" - GOP Congressman; Her response is epic. Lol.

[UCmeNdc]

Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (R-Mo.) made the comments during a panel discussion at an American Bankers Association conference Wednesday. According to Politico, Luetkemeyer said people needed to “find a way to neuter” Warren, whom he called the "Darth Vader of the financial services world."


Latching on to the Star Wars reference, she responded:


"My first thought was Really? I've always seen myself more as a Princess Leia-type (as a senator and Resistance general who, unlike the guys, is never even remotely tempted by the dark side). Clearly the Force is not strong with Congressman Luetkemeyer
(maybe he's a Trekkie)."

[Thinkingabout]

1. By his thinking we must need to establish a line and this guy could be first in line.

[roamer65]

2. Any Rethug from Missouri has no valid opinion and needs to STFU.

[13Dogs]

37. 100% Agreement

Totally agree...exactly when did Missouri become such a backwards sh*thole full of bought and paid for dunces like this guy?

[chknltl]

3. Resistance was futile for Congressman Luetkemeyer.

Like many of our politicians, he too is a member of the Borg.

[kentauros]

14. Or the Vogons.

Resistance is useLESS!

Don't let him read you any of his poetry, either

[Demoiselle]

4. But, but, if Darth Vader had been neutered, there'd be no Luke Skywalker!

Am I right? And while I'm asking, who the Fuck is Blaine Luetkemeyer?

[TheBlackAdder]

21. What came first, Darth Vader or the conception of Leia and Luke?

[Augiedog]

5. He's not a Trekkie either, he's a dickie

[JHB]

23. He's a Terseran

The Doctor explains how they communicate... (at 10:40)

?t=659

[justiceischeap]

6. Male animals are neutered, females are spayed

Just saying

[dembotoz]

7. uh oh time to check bathrooms....

[Betty Karlson]

32. Cudoes for managing to put two GOP insanities into one thread!

That was admirably quick-witted.

[Scarsdale]

15. Pesky details

Republicans do not deal in FACTS.

[meow2u3]

16. Elizabeth Warren is not an animal; Luetkemeyer is

If anyone needs to be neutered, it's Luetkemeyer. Just sayin'!

[appalachiablue]

18. +1. Also needs his mouth shut. A broken jaw often takes care of that, temporarily.

[meow2u3]

19. We'll have to go to PetSmart and fit him with a muzzle

[appalachiablue]

22. Not a bad idea, a little trip with the Congressman. A public official making

a statement like that in this age is incredible. If he'd said neutralize or muzzle that would been offensive enough, but to sexualize it the way he did is beyond belief...

[appalachiablue]

28. Look at this, Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer, (R-MO) aka Plain Loco,

has a background as a farmer, business owner, banker, insurance agent and Republican politician. Wiki left out sexist, misogynist, homophobe, bigot and more.
- Blaine Luetkemeyer (/ˈluːtkəmaɪər/; born May 7, 1952) is the U.S. Representative for Missouri's 3rd congressional district, a post he has held since 2009. The district, numbered as the 9th district from 2009 to 2013, contains most of east-central Missouri. Luetkemeyer is a member of the Republican Party.
In 1998, Luetkemeyer was elected to the Missouri House of Representatives from the 115th district. During his time as a state representative, Luetkemeyer served as chair of the Financial Services Committee and as House Republican Caucus Chairman. During his time in the state legislature, Luetkemeyer co-sponsored the statewide constitutional amendment defining marriage as being between a man and a woman, which was overwhelmingly approved by Missouri voters statewide in 2004 by a margin of 71-29. He also worked on legislation which allowed Missourians to carry concealed firearms, banned partial-birth abortions, and reformed worker compensation laws. In addition, he has supported the de-regulation of the financial industry—specifically the lending industry.

36. Heh. Another toilet-tongue.

[MidwestTech]

40. It's because her balls are bigger than the entire gop

And sadly most of the dems as well

[Bernardo de La Paz]

8. Republican Congressman advocates sexual violence against a woman. Media yawns. . . nt

[sheshe2]

9. That is my Senator!

[Amimnoch]

10. Love it! I'd have taken a slightly different approach..

Leave it to a Republican to only be thinking about genitalia, and still get it completely wrong.

[malaise]

11. Hilarious - Elizabeth Warren

will tear them to shreds

[liberalnarb]

13. She should have run for Pres.

[Feathery Scout]

27. I tell you...

....I could totally get on board with her being VP or a *major* cabinet position.

She needs to keep making powerful Republicans' lives miserable.

And she needs to be inputting policy on a national level.

[demigoddess]

39. cabinet members usually have to keep their mouths shut

Senators not so much, I would like her to keep putting Trump in his place!

[blackspade]

12. ouch

"Clearly the Force is not strong with Congressman Luetkemeyer"

[Feeling the Bern]

17. Republicans are the fucking Borg.

[MrModerate]

20. One of the things I like about Warren . . .

Is the genial mercilessness of her laser-like attention.

[LiberalLovinLug]

24. Society has changed

I don't know if its for the better, but in this age of instant response, no response is weakness. Trump knows this.

The Democrats have played this other game for way too long. You know the one...If we just walk away, shake our heads, roll our eyes, maybe a little "tsk tsk", then everyone will understand that we are not going to sully ourselves by stooping to the same level, and we will come out looking like the better, smarter, mature ones, and that will work eventually in our favor. That the great unwashed public will take a step back with a sober second look and conclude the obvious...that the opposition is just desperate and acting like children and we are right...again...obviously.

But instead, all that does is solidify the "martini sipping limousine liberal" that is so arrogant that they either cannot be bothered to respond or they cannot respond because they are afraid they are wrong.

[Eleanors38]

35. Agree. Quit belly-aching about bullies. Hit back, early and often.

[Chicago1980]

25. Well...

At least she has balls unlike Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (R-Mo.).

[Feathery Scout]

26. Translation:

Translation: Senator Warren is an animal. Not even human. And she needs to have painful degrading physical acts done to her. To put her in her place.

[BlueStreak]

31. Didn't he really mean "spayed"?

What was he talking about anyway? That metaphor doesn't even make sense, nor does the Darth Vader one.

[libodem]

29. Capitalistic Vultures

Seriously believe regulations and taxes are the ruination of the American economy. They want unfettered, unrestrained, merciless, power to vampirize, literally suck the blood of the consumers dry, and not pay a dime for it.

We are their chattel.

Look how even, DWS, wants payday lenders to be able to entrap, people, with no way out of the debt, it causes. So predatory and unwholesome. Interest so high and fees and late charges so steep, it can never be repaid.

[ThoughtCriminal]

30. Red Shirt vs Blue Shirt

Rep. Luetkemeyer? Is he that ensign that nobody knows or has even seen before?

[eShirl]

33. jeez, what did Trekkies ever do to her?

grumble grumble

[Eleanors38]

34. If male-order gynecologists from the Grand Old Potty wanna talk crotch...

...they ought to get the expressions correct; otherwise, they might be accused of getting into the wong wabbit hole.

[lsewpershad]

38. Really

Maybe he's talking about himself.
