Wally Herger Praises a "Proud Right-Wing Terrorist"

[thetaxmancometh]

The comment by Herger is based upon the statement allegedly made by the Vice President. To present anything else is garbage.

[deepfreezevideo]

Lemme guess..."not intended to be a factual statement"?

[MMACHMP]

wally calls this guy a great American and praises his values and then turns around and votes yes to renew Patriot Act. well if that isn't showing his true colors I don't know what to call it.

[MMACHMP]

Wally recently was one of the politicians who voted yes on the renewal of the patriot act even though it didn't pass by the 2/3 majority vote its for sure showing his true colors the patriot act is not to protect us from terrorist its to be used against us Americans and tramples our 1st and 4th amendments under foot. I'm sorry to all who like him but he needs to go now. and its time for a change in California's 2nd district and I might just throw my hat in the ring.

[repnorcal]

redneck white trash.. i know. i lived in his district for a terrible 7 years..

[loopdawgg]

FUCK OBAMA! fuck all you socialist's potheads living off other people's money.

[repnorcal]

@loopdawgg actually, liberals are wealthier on average then republicans. I personally make six figures, but have no problem paying a tax that supports the health and well being of poor americans (mostly repubs), I actually have a heart, you should look into getting one.

[lago4]

@loopdawgg You better not call 911 when your house catches fire. I don't want my tax dollars paying for the firemen.

[loccomitzu]

Tea party+ White, Racist, people who want their country Back --It is not yours,, you stole it. you know what happens when you try to keep something you stole... you lose it.

[SmoothDemocrat]

You're fed up ... elect another president ..... if you can.

[Hollywoodsteve]

I think he meant to say something else and said terrorist instead. Can't believe how stupid people can be. What he REALLY is is an embarrasing right-wing moron and this video proves it.

[bluesmaster14701]

All I gotta say when I listen to this absolute bullshit is get the hell out of my country. You give Republicans...Americans...prob­ably Christians (assuming you are one) a bad name. If a guy like this wants to be a "right-wing terrorist" take your ass over to Iraq. You know what they call right-wing terrorists over there? Al Qaeda. Go over there where you don't have the freedom to be a fucking retard.

[peach6966]

you people are dense arent you? he proclaims himself as a right wing terrorist because our government declared anyone opposing Obama's policies a terrorist, as well as veterans, if you believe in the second amendment you are a terrorist. if you believe in free speech your a terrorist. THEY RECLASSIFIED HALF OF AMERICANS AS TERRORISTS. If you question our government , you are a terrorist. So whos the idiot this republican, or you people allowing our freedoms be taken away. Open your eyes

[Lethkhar2000]

That would be true, except nobody in the Obama administration has actually called any of these right-week nutjobs a terrorist. They do that themselves, apparently.

[bluesmaster14701]

Dude, you're a fuckin' idiot. That's all I gotta say.

[stoptherightwing]

@peach6966 I do wish your rights of hate and ignorance were restricted, but unfortunately people like you scream how your hatred has to be toned down for when you speak or go to your tea parties, there are people outside of the party that know what you're really about. I don't agree with a lot of what Obama has done or is doing but unlike Bushies and Chenies, you support your idiots regardless for they are christian and love god and forgive those who kill cops like Suckabee. You're morons

[h4KK]

To add some substance to my post: for a list of 75 right-wing terrorist plots since the OKC bombing,

Google "SPLC terror from the right"

[franklinjonesii]

those r my heroes!! God bless the USA!..........dam hippies libirils

[h4KK]

Worthless jackass. Not even fifteen years since the OKC bombing and you have these pricks identifying as proud right-wing terrorists.

Every significant act of terrorism that the younger end of the politically active crowd has seen was committed by conservatives (including 9/11 - those hijackers were conservative fundamentalists). This guy should volunteer for the gitmo treatment if he's so damn proud of his legacy of hate and plans to perpetuate it.

[darkwolf228]

Notice how these people are all 40+. They are NOT the future of America. Every 4 years some more old folks die off, and some more young folks become voting age. You baby boomers and above are becoming obsolete, and there is nothing you can do to stop it.

[leftwingnazi666]

MAN REPUBLICANS ARE IDIOTS

[MikeHuntHurts000]

"Amen, God Bless You." how can a republican congressman say that to a self stated, "TERRORIST" especially after the republicans have called democrats "weak on national security" who's actually weak? Congressman wally herger

[pcfrost232]

Watched the crazies on this video, chuckled at their dysfunction and then donated to the campaign against Mr. Herger.

[SmartHomey]

Fagged you Wally!!

[jnny3000]

txbertie - It's a public option, this mean you can take it or leave it. The government is not forcing to do anything.

[scottn999]

this old man comes from a generation of people who have completely let down their country. their failure to think independently of the television they plop themselves in front of every evening has cost their children and grandchildren their future. congratulations, old man.

[LaborTV]

Self-centered, Selfish, Greedy people, who use "illegal" acts to manipulate society. Look UP the word terrorist. The republicans have crossed from being terrorizers, to terrorists.... NOW homeland secutiy should go after them as domestic terrorists...

[DmurphZ]

We can run car companies ourselves?!? Really? Ya sure buddy?

[geebeebee1]

Hey, at least this guy was honest. Right-wing idiots have ruined our country for years. It's the most effective form of terrorism (as far as ruining our country) I've ever seen.

[nraendowment]

Mr Stead simply took a few of the terms the statists have been using to describe anyone who dares disagree with their socialist agenda and had a little fun mocking it. Don't get that? Look up "sarcasm".

[Txbertie]

It's the White House that accused us of saying "fishy" things. It's the left that called us, among many other things, "terrorists" so how does the left miss the joke when we make fun of the outrageous things they say?

[gripper61]

GOP spent the whole campaign saying Obama palled around with them...you are an idiot.

[xylin3]

Youre forgetting that he goes on to talk about a self appointed King...

He is clearly a Loon.

[Txbertie]

I didn't forget he talked about the "self appointed king." I agree with what he said as do a lot of people. That is the issue. Many of us (you say loons, I say average Americans) do not want the government to "rule" us but rather we think they should "represent" us. Having more and more decisions and control emanating from DC is antithetical to what we believe is the American way. We "loons" still believe in individual freedom and therefore individual responsibility, not government control.

[xylin3]

That comment is so distorted, Im not going to waste the efffort.

think whatever you want.

be unhappy then.

I dont care anymore.

[penguinfreak8]

Universal health care is not about government control, its about the poorer America who needs medical help, like transplants or life support, and other costly treatments....there is no way for them to pay the bill so hospitals have to throw them back on the street to die...

We have some of the best hospitals in the world, and 46 million American citizens (1/6 people) can't come up with the money to continue living. Is this your idea of America??

[franklinjonesii]

Us repubakans luv amerika! If u kant afford hellthkare, its not for u. We dont wont no gov run business. We r proud rt wing terrorist, and good god fearen christian folk here. You libirils dont care about Jesus, and the blessens he has bestoed on us. us meaning U.S.A. Jesus didn't say nothen in the Bible bout payen for somebotty elsis doctor bills, did he? He let the free market work it out!!!! Go team Jesus!!

[penguinfreak8]

wow..."repubakan" Come on...Jesus wasnt even alive when America was made.....how can JESUS bless the USA??? I understand God blessing the USA but jesus???

Also, there weren't effin' Doctor Bills when he was around either!

And you have to know that Librals do care about Jesus...infact we base a whole lot of our principles of of his teachings.

[franklinjonesii]

wut, all that true huggen you guys do? Jesus didn't hug no tree eether. that's y i weir my WWJD bracelet evryday, to remind me that Jesus was a conservative. He said in Mattew that we should drill baby drill, look it up. my preacher say its in the Bible. Jesus loved the free market system. Shoot, anytime sumbotty was tryen to make a buck, he did not complain. u hippie veggie eaters want to overturn the tables of the money changers ie. free markets, and thro hour dimocrisy overboard. cowards

[penguinfreak8]

Democracy?? HA! You do know that Liberals are DEMOCRATS right?? I hope you know too that Conservitive (repubakans..) dont like change...you guys are afraid of Change.

heres a WWJD question for you....

Would Jesus let people die just because they cant pay they have no insurance??

Oh and im not a "veggie eater" i eat as much meat an hunt as much as i can So quit stereotyping me.

[Lethkhar2000]

Well, as least you spelled U.S.A. right!

Seriously, though. Most browsers have fucking spell check. How the hell do you still misspell more than half of the words you type?

[bluesmaster14701]

Because his posts are parodies.

[333333344444]

God is dead.

[VoiceGawd]

BTW, I don't believe Mr. Stead believes himself a "right-wing terrorst"; I genuinely believe he mispoke and that he's very patriotic but terribly ill-informed.

I do, however, stand by my remarks that Wally Herger is a meat-puppet dangling from the purse strings of his corporate donors. Herger, who evaded military service unlike Stead and I, has proven himself to be a worthless anti-veteran, corporate paid front to the detriment of his constituents.

[VoiceGawd]

This video only exposes Herger for what he is - a pandering idiot at the end of his corporate contributor's purse strings. Further to excuse the remarks as sarcasm or humor is desperate. Those of us who served in the military on 9-11 and later, as had I, find such remarks by the right-wing lock-steppers extremely offensive.

As a 22-year veteran I deeply resent this draft-evading, cowardly, anti-veteran weasel who drapes himself in the flag as he proclaims to be a great patriot.

[trojanhippie]

Regardless of whether or not this is sarcasm, it's an incredibly stupid choice of words. People who claim to be supporters of fear and terror, whether true or not, should not be told "Amen, god bless you. There's a great American" by a member of Congress. This is just one more nutjob we get to hear from at town halls.

[DmurphZ]

That man didn't have enough brain power for sarcasm.  That was pure ignorance and stupidity.

[carlgrilliot]

Sarcasm people, look it up. Y'all really are a Singularity of Stooooopid. It's actually painful to think how brain dead you are.

How do you remember to breathe?

[gripper61]

"Irony", my friend.

And I shan't learn from you.

[jimboa20]

Anyone getting worked up over this video is an idiot. He's obviously using the word "terrorist" in a satirical manner, to satirize how democrats like to call anyone who is a committed conservative a "terrorist" or an "extremist."

[gripper61]

The only "terrorist" talk I heard in the past year or so was uttered from the GOP about how Obama like to pal around with them. You got the wrong party, dude.

[jasbigj]

Tim McVeigh was a proud right wing terrorist, too. How'd that work out?

[ezikiel121212]

Wow, people look at the health care issue with massive ignorance. People hear, "nationalized health care will give everyone health care coverage." Sweet, that's awesome, republicans and democrats both agree on that, everyone should have health care. But, is it fair to have hard working people pay for everyones elses lack of coverage? Would the system be abused? Is it safe for government to compete in a free market enterprise? Are you willing to have your life in the hands of the government?

[gripper61]

Unfortunately, it's come to the point where many HARD WORKING PEOPLE can't afford insurance for themselves. You see........that's why there is a problem.

[bfayer]

so we are going to torture him now right?

[MrSinalinaninin]

I sense a FEMA camp in this nutjobs future.  LOL!!

[713davidh42]

An article today (8-28-09) on our local newspaper's web site quoted Herger's spokesman Matt Lavoie saying "that Herger remains with his family and is not available for comment." Yet below on this web site there have been six videos posted within the past two days by RepWallyHerger. What can you say except this guy is a coward!

[TheWayISeeIt1982]

What!!! That guy just said he's a terrorist!!! Shouldn't we go scoop him up and lock him up somewhere?

[GuitarSpeller]

Godless republicans would rather deny health care to a diabetic than put a single control on the insurance companies.

No stupid republican as ever disputed the fact that Jesus would want a diabetic to have affordable health care so a later amputation could be avoided.

[DAVIDAMORSE1701]

Article VI - This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be

bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.

[DAVIDAMORSE1701]

Its strange to hear Republicans defend the constitution now after 8 years of Bush. President Bush violated the constitution everyday and no conservatives complained. Treaties on torture and others are considered equal to our constitution. There is clause VI which states as much, but conservatives never seem to quote it. Bush believed if he did it than it was legal. That is so not true. America is a Nation of laws not men.

[robadonkadonk]

Because two wrongs make a right, don't they? Obama is exponentially expanding everything that Bush did wrong and I didn't support that idiot either. Why is it that the very same things Bush did, Obama is doing, and yet because he's a Democrat that somehow it's morally superior? Stop thinking in terms of left and right and realize both sides are screwing you and this idiotic health plan is a continuation of that excess government imposing on you.

[1kel40b]

read the constitution you assjacks

[xleeca]

haha, these people remind me of the first American colonies who couldn't farm their own food and couldn't make shelter for the winter and started dying off until the indians came to show them how to grow food and survive haha.. and then they started killing off the indians.. oh the irony.. please throw these people onto their own cult island and let them fend for themselves.

[curtrock]

So ironic that a right-wingnut is proud to label himself a terrorist after his own party declared war on terrorists...

The gutless and shameful response from Republican Rep. Wally Herger...proves the continued encouragement of smearing our president...conservatives continue to prove their ineptitude, intolerance and the willingness to accept and spread lies...

[TheNomadicMonad]

Right wingers are such a pest >.>

[SATANSbankers]

Pretty much, and studies have shown that they would fall for an Authoritarian Leader in a heartbeat. Studies also showed Right Wingers can't adapt to Change very well.

[Wrathbone13]

I'm sorry, Mr. "Terrorist," but you don't scare anyone. You look like a pussy. You're the kind of guy who locks his car doors and shrinks in his seat when a black person pulls up next to you at a stoplight. You refuse to set foot in a Wal Mart because the Mexicans scare you. You panic when you can't pay at the pump because the clerk looks Muslim. You and all who applaud you are just cowards, afraid that the world around you is changing and moving forward.

[st4ticblu3]

That a fairly racist statement you made there.

No one fears change when it is done within the laws of the constitution and Bill of Rights. They do get pissed when a president basically denounces the documents that are the basis of our nation.

You need a history lesson.

[Azure807]

You actually and truly have no idea what you are talking about. But that's a given for those on your side.

[st4ticblu3]

What side is that? Prove me wrong since you know everything.

[epicstyle28]

Hey CADEMORG let's break down the HR 3200 bill and see what were working with.

The below listed link will take you to a video that has info on Gov having direct access to your bank account.

Also in the notes of the video & on my page I have 2 links of websites that breakdown the HR 3200 bill plus answer any questions you might have.

Hope this helps,

Video link below

watch?v=v4NN-kHO2Nk

Or the video is on my page

with some of the break down of

HR 3200 aka (Public Option)

[epicstyle28]

Cademorg so you crop the video just to that point and how you try and make it seem like he's confessing to being a right wing terrorist. WOW you never heard of sarcasm, he was using it towards all the DEMS that keep calling anyone that stands against the bill right wing Terroist, and or the "REPORT FISHY EMAILS to GOV website.

But I'm sure your catching it now that 99% of your comments are explaining that to you. And that you sound retarded.

[lenegal77]

You are not only a Right Wing Terrorist, you are a FAT RW whackjob.

[tehgrunt3]

and your a retard

[Azure807]

It's, uh, "you're". If you are going to use this zinger twice, you might want to spell one of the four words correctly.

[alejandra96080]

We don't need government thus we don't need Wally Herger? Actually, he sorts his town hall meetings to make sure only supporters appear to praise him. He represents the poorest counties in Northern California. People have to drive to another town to get health care. Also, very few people actually know who is their congressman in this area and I have been around from Colusa to Shasta County. It's a shame because his constituents are the ones that need health care reform the most.

[MrZabal1]

This is as bad as that republican that said "they don't want government in their medicare". Obama was voted into office not "self appointed". A true American, as any good sport, if they loose accepts it and gets with the program for the betterment of the greater cause. Seems our car companies, Wallstreet and the likes did a really great job running them selves into the ground at the average Americans expense. While the 1% got richer. Spoil Sports w no solutions in hand!!!

[jnmgraham]

Oh, c'monnnnnn, according to the view of the left anyone who values their freedom, their privacy, THEIR FIRST and SECOND amendment rights AND speaks their mind is a right wing terrorist. He's not a terrorist in the real sense of the word - how do you not understand this? Don't want your freedom, your privacy, free speech, guns if you care to have them? Fine, give 'em up, crouch down and begin your sorry ass servitude. Just don't expect me to do the same.

[stoptherightwing]

jnmgraham, Directhought is correct. Right wing talking points of NO GOVERNMENT control, unless it benefits Your RIGHTS! Yes, I agree he didn't mean to say he was a "terrorist" because he's stupid, like most of the audience. Sheep, they follow the leader and clap and pray and say "Amen"! Free speech, fine, hatred then hear me respond! Guns, protect yourself that's fine but loonies taking them to protests? Give up rights, no. Let stupid people loose, NO! Water down trees of freedom?STUPID!

[Tanirocker]

What does retaining constitutional rights have to do with this guy's rant? What does health care have to do with giving up rights? Nobody is asking you to give up your rights, and nobody is calling anyone at terrorist for not giving them up. This guy called HIMSELF a terrorist. People who use guns to instill fear in those who would disagree is a terrorist. How do YOU not understand?

[howtoplanaparty]

People, who use guns to make you agree: I would include the freemasonic police in that category.

[robadonkadonk]

Where is government health care listed as a right in the constitution? There's a bunch of negative rights which dictate the government will not stop you from pursuing life, liberty and happiness, but it is not a right to be promised these things from the government, nor should it be. If the government affords you the right to healthcare, someone else has to pay for it, thereby making them a slave to your wants and desires. This is not complicated, you don't have a right to healthcare.

[Azure807]

But if corporations such as those that run the insurance industry manage to manipulate information and deceive people into acting against their own material interests, this is good for constitutional democracy? Hmmm.

[robadonkadonk]

Insurance companies have to make a profit. Government doesn't. Therefore, with every increasing government presence in health care, setting guidelines and regulations for the industry, it's necessarily going to drive the cost up for the private sector. Why is it I can go to Mexico for a blood test and it costs me $10 and I get the results immediately, but here I have to have a doctor order it, then make another appointment for the results? Gov. Regulations that made a $10 test $200.

[robadonkadonk]

Furthermore, the reason he referred to himself as a terrorist was to poke fun at Janet Napolitano labeling anyone who owned a gun or cared about their constitutional rights or voted libertarian as a terrorist who should be under the watch of the FBI. Not unlike Bush putting lefties on terrorist watch lists for things like anti-war protests.

[st4ticblu3]

Hahaha, you're trying to use reason with these people? Good luck. They only understand insults, lies and half truths.

[robadonkadonk]

Yeah, that's about it. Lenin called liberals "Useful Idiots" for a reason. Those people living in liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us today.

[obambicom]

you people need to wake up and realize there is no Left vs. Right. Its all one big political party.

[RedDawnWolverines]

Rght. One party. Was it both parties that torture? Nope.

Was it both parties that started a war-of-choice that bled our kids and our treasury? Nope.

Was it both parties that support domestic terrorists? Nope.

[RedDawnWolverines]

To continue:

Which party will you NOT find KKK, American Nazis, skinheads, Aryan Nations, etc. having members in? Why - that would be the Democratic Party. Only the Republicans welcome those fine people. Need I say, "David Duke" or "Tom Coburn"? (reformed racists are not worth mentioning).

Yes- they're both alike in a lot of ways, and they're both owned by the corporations, but the Dems - at least - have a heart and a conscience, but you Luddites are unable to see that. (look it up)

[obambicom]

watch?v=FReu_qARAdg

[iamnotdrtran]

This is the kind of guy that supports companies like Enron.

[stoptherightwing]

This is VERY DISTURBING! The GOP is doing nothing to stop or denounce people like this, for this is their party of choice. Ladyeuthanasia, has it right! We have the same type of wacko's that I call the Christian Jihad, they are just as dangerous and would like nothing more than to see Obama killed, that's their mission and anyone who can't see this has their head up their own as*! A self proclaimed terrorist, Tea Bagger and applause? Just hold up KKK signs and make the picture complete!

[723jgp]

"We don't want government run businesses?" OK, pal. Then when your time comes and you need Medicare, don't come running to the government! It's amazing how fools like this forget. Oh, and by the way, "right wing terrorist." That "self-appointed king" you're referring to was elected in majority by the people of the United States, not self-appointed. You are right about one thing though. You do say "things fishy." Now, get a clue, shut up and step aside and let a real American fix what is broken.

[javiciriaco]

I feel like throwing up! I thought Herger was a midwestern Congressman. We need to kick him and his other "terrorist" cronies out of California!

[naturalragman]

Fascist alive and well in CA.. What an idiot!

[silveraguila]

How do you rate this video?

Great coverage!

What it says....really, truly scares me. We did vote Bush out - didn't we? Didn't we?

[ladyeuthanasia]

"God" and "terrorism" in the same breath. Wow. They don't even remember what just happened a few months ago, when "we" screwed up our whole economy, thankyouverymuch. What a bunch of ignoramuses, just a hair away from being Al Quaeda themselves.
