GOP Rep. McMorris-Rodgers Booed Offstage At Spokane MLK Event

[hatrack]

Delicious!

[guillaumeb]

1. Agreed. More GOP liars must be met with this type of response to their lies. eom

[GP6971]

2. K & R

I wish I could Rec this over and over.

[jaxind]

3. Obamacare

They need to be chanting "save our Obamacare" not "save our healthcare!" People need to hear Obama's name so everyone knows that it's something that Obama did that everyone wants to keep!

[a kennedy]

9. Exactly, I think saying Obamacare should be said at ALL times. eom

[Doreen]

12. Oh, heavens no, they are Republicans...can't say that.

Obamacare is a nasty four letter word.

[snort]

4. Delightful!

[coco22]

5. I want ta thank ya!

[tinrobot]

6. Awesome. More of this, please!

[Akamai]

7. Excellent, excellent example of showing differences between Democratic views and Republican views!

[ProudProgressiveNow]

8. K&R nt

[Doreen]

10. How funny.

Those are the Washingtonians that voted for the Dictator. They are the ones who voted for their health care to go away. I do not know how bad I feel for them...I will think about it.

[Dawson Leery]

11. She has blood on her hands.

[bucolic_frolic]

13. WOW!

These early public events in the tRump era may well set the tone for
many encounters in many districts.

Good real old-fashioned grassroot resistance!

[Buns_of_Fire]

28. I'd like to see it reach the point where every one of these republican bastards

winds up persona non grata in their own districts, scared shitless of what they may face there. Let 'em hole up in Washington with their buddies and eat fish head stew from a communal pot, for all I care.

14. Coffman has to slink out of his event and McMorris-Rodgers gets rouundly booed

That's a good start to this legislative session.

Years ago it was Tea Partiers doing this kind of thing. Well, Repukes, Dems were taking notes. Now that you're going too far - it's time to get pushed back hard.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

15. Oooh, it begins with a real bang!

Rodgers: "I know that as your representative and your advocate... your friend, I am up to this challenge."

Loud audience member: "BULLSHIT!"

:::: Applause ::::

[BlancheSplanchnik]

35. That "your friend" line made me GAG.

Apparently I'm not the only one!

Pukes lie sooooooo easily.

Hate 'em.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

16. So how many in that audience voted for her?

She was elected (or re-elected) this past November. Did she not have the R after her name on the ballot?

Yes, I'm rather glad to see what happened here, but how the fuck was she elected (or re-elected) in the first place?

[DFW]

21. Eastern Washington State

Many robotic Republican voters out there who blindly vote R by habit. It will take a number of incidents like this for the mass of right wing oriented locals to ask why it happened. But if it starts and keeps happening, eventually, even the robotic R voters will start to ask how come? And THAT is when the pendulum starts to swing the other way--it all starts with the first question. No question, no doubt, and no change.

[NewJeffCT]

24. Like I keep telling people

you don't need to flip all of these voters. Just 2, 3 or 4 out of every 100 and it will make a huge difference overall.

[rtracey]

31. yes , I agree

But 61 million voted for Fuckump too...so?

[herding cats]

17. I hope this will leave a mark.

Maybe it will. I can hope.

[KT2000]

18. Yay for Spokane!

what kind of drivel was that she was saying?

[Jamaal510]

22. "Something...something...Martin Luther King..." nt

[Tanuki]

27. I found the text. No wonder the crowd was infuriated,

listening to her "God is good" sanctimony and platitudes about being their "advocate and friend" while conniving to steal their affordable health care and colluding with those who will poison their environment and impoverish their old age. I hope her colleagues see this video and take it to heart. As the crowd said, "Save our healthcare!"

[KT2000]

29. thanks for this -

It was a pretty uninspired delivery too.
We need a petition to take away healthcare for federal elected officials if this happens.

[Glimmer of Hope]

19. Oh yeah. I dig this.

[sarcasmo]

20. Save our health care, sounds like a great chant during the Inauguration.

[ffr]

23. I liked that chant too!

[NastyRiffraff]

25. More like this!

Thanks for posting

[Cracklin Charlie]

26. That was beautiful.

Save Our Healthcare!

Cathy found out exactly why all those people turned up at her event.

[grantcart]

30. I knew her father in law and went to school with her sister in law.

Her in laws are much better people, lol. Her father in law was a quiet man who was mayor of Spokane in the Eisenhower wing of the party. Her sister in law was a friend and classmate but I haven't seen her for 30 years.

McMorris-Rogers went to a right wing unaccredited college and is good at PR when no one is really looking at what is being said. She has a special needs children and receives a significant monthly stipend from the government. She wants her federal money but just wants to take it away from others.

[MontanaMama]

32. Love the gal who starts it off yelling "Bullshit"!

That's what this is. That's what they are full of. Call it what it is. Damn straight!

[hatrack]

33. The "LIAR!!!" guy was pretty good, too.

[MontanaMama]

34. You're right, hatrack, the "LIAR!" shout out was kickass!!!

[flying-skeleton]

36. BRAVO
