McCaskill says DeMint holding up TSA nominee over unionization is "nuts."

[jkfromcincty]

Mr. DeMint: Thanks for putting politics (and, your racism?) ahead of the safety of American citizens.

[beckisright]

@jkfromcincty I guess everyone knows by now that this man was NOT vetted as dear Claire said. Once again the Obama Admin agenda peeking out. Be weary people.

[GHOSTSHADOW1]

Got dam it!!!!!! they should unionize tsa im all for it...the last time i checked tsa employees are americans like you and me.. come one people think and use your head look up the word american..they deserve a union like everyone else this isnt iran!!!

[anotherfoolonthehlLL]

McCaskill looks like she doesn't get herself really clean... you know... down there. Like... there's probably a rash or fungus going on (in between the folds)... I bet it really stinks, too.  Fuck, man.... I'll never eat tappiocca again.

[whatyathinknow]

The more tits you see in leadership, the less leadership and honor there is! This country is being led to the slaughter by female mentality and men who think like them! TIT WITS!

[MendingMedia]

Republicans want Amercans to die so they can get elected.

Its thier only hope.

This time they will blame it on Obama and not Clinton.

[JayPhilosopher]

Senator MaCaskill correctly suggested that Republicans aren't concerned about the safety of Americans. It doesn't matter how badly things get screwed up as long as Republicans can stop workers from getting their rights, they're happy.

[beckisright]

@JayPhilosopher I guess everyone knows by now that this man was NOT vetted as dear Claire said. Once again the Obama Admin agenda peeking out. Be weary people. BTW McCaskill is nothing but an Obama lapdog.

[JayPhilosopher]

No everybody knows by now that this well qualified man's nomination was held up and the security of every single man, woman and child in America was endangered by Republican Senator Jim Demint because of his hatred for the workers of the United States. Ms. McCaskill simply told the truth about Demint's treachery to the nation, as a courageous and independent woman should.

[alwaysending]

Ohhhh, but think ofl just how FUN it'll be when the TSA members are part of SCIU, and they go on strike demanding preferential treatments!

Think of the no waiting anymore!

[doctender77]

Perfect example of whats wrong with our government. Its adults acting like preschoolers pointing fingers and blaming their peers for everything that goes wrong. Of course they do this because the public doesn't really want adults who take responsiblity in office. We want scapegoats to blame all our problems on. If your a republican it has to be the democrats fault and vice versa. All while Rome burns down around us.

[TekDragon84]

Claiming the TSA can't function without a politically appointed head, a position which fluctuates not only between administrations but during administrations is ridiculous.

The TSA functions through the actions of mid and low level employees and managers using guidelines set down by their stadium full of lawyers and experts - none of whom could give a shit who is the "head" of the TSA.

[TekDragon84]

And I'm all for limiting a figurehead who wants to unionize TSA. Just look at air traffic controllers, another unionized government work force.

An ATC requires EITHER a 4-year degree (with no experience) or 3-years work experience (with no degree). Yet it is not even remotely uncommon for ATCs to make around $160,000 a year. The private sector pay for that level of education is 60k.

That is disgusting and as blatantly anti-capitalist as the fools who support corporate subsidies on the right

[renijohn012270]

And if this was a democrat holding up a republican nominee,,,you and your Konservative Klux Klan members would be OUTRAGED!

[bush1tman]

Southers can be brought up to a vote any time. Why not take a look and debate on a guy who dug into FBI files on an individual illegally? McCaskill wants a rubber stamp confirmation and any thing else is nuts? She's nuts or thinks we are.

[100101100]

To be a racist, you must blindly apply stereotypes to people based on a very small set of criteria.

If someone says they are against the concept of Unions, and you jump to the conclusion that the person is racist, you are a racist.

[Zile77]

Unionize TSA? Two words: General Motors.

[Zile77]

November looms for dems and Oblama, and they know it. That's why they want to rush the H/C bill through and bankrupt America to death for the NWO. It's now the people vs government elites. Even the libs are waking up to this fact.

[DillonX]

Support DeMint - he's determined to bring down the wall between Church & State & even introduced a bill to have signs in front of all public schools saying "GOD BLESS AMERICA".

He will also get the teaching of evolution out of the schools;

And he's determined to oppose almost everything Barack proposes - even things that make perfect sense.

[bigdogsdontbark]

Liberals want everything done behind closed doors or without any debate. If anyone questions it they are racist rednecks and lowlif scumbags. Thats the Hope and Change yall voted for.

[KataVideo]

conservatards want everything done behind corporate boardroom doors with no accountability, and have the decisions inserted directly up our butts. if anyone questions it they are 'socialists' and 'terrorists'. That's conservatards for you.

[bigdogsdontbark]

Liberals want us to wait and hurry up and pass any and everything they throw in our face. They are tearing this country apart.

[KataVideo]

conservatards rammed everything through on reconciliation, turned the microphones off when congressional Democrats started to talk and wasted billions of dollars in a war on a country that didn't and couldn't attack us.

[alwaysending]

and yet we're still there......hhhmmmnnnn, me thinks you believe Dem over Repub or vice versa and you DONT believe your fellow REAL American's (aka Tea Party Protestors) ideals about limiting ALL government, both Dems/Repubs that you're a simpleton, a sheep, a follower of the most blatantly obvious scam in history

[RuflessRecords]

The Democrats were in no hurry to pass this guy's nomination, this is all a political stunt after the near disaster with someone sneaking on explosives on that plane to suddenly rush through their TSA chief so they can't be criticized for still not having one after almost a year. And they shouldn't be trying to unionize another segment of govt. No unions should be allowed in any govt position. We have no leverage in bargaining with them over our tax dollars.

[KataVideo]

why do you hate American workers?

[RuflessRecords]

hahahhahahah, I'm sorry I don't think I can dumb this down to your level

[KataVideo]

no really, why do you hate American workers?

[beckisright]

@KataVideo I guess everyone knows by now that this man was NOT vetted as dear Claire said. Once again the Obama Admin agenda peeking out. Be weary people.

And the great McCaskill knows nothing but defend Obama. LOL

[KataVideo]

why does your girlfriend hate American workers?

why do republicans despise national security?

[DixonRants]

DeMint = Republican Obstructionism

[maximouni]

I say get rid of the TSA altogether. Could you imagine these guys going on strike only to inconvience the air traveler, because of union demands. Its time to fire this government, its time to Burn them out.

[CollateralSandwich]

*facepalm*

[KennBurch]

It will hurt Republicans in the fall if DeMint keeps the TSA position open. The American people want the position filled, and they know having TSA jobs unionized is the only way to get qualified people doing them.

Without unionization, TSA is just a group of glorified mall cops.

The American people do NOT hate unions.

[GHOSTSHADOW1]

@KennBurch  i agree

[realitychckr]

The Grand Obstructionist Party.

They do have an agenda and ARE the terrorists! Can't negotiate with them, can't compromise, won't listen. They are doing this on purpose and have all agreed in their little club house meetings, to do nothing except ensure that this administration fails so they can gain votes this year. "See, the Democrats ideas failed, you should have voted republican." Anyone who didn't vote for the obvious choice in '08 is either really stupid or racist.

[vulrare]

jim demint.....he's not a senator..he just plays one on tv...god what an asshole....the people of sc deserve better than again...they are dumb enough to vote for himm...

[GrinchandMax]

DeMint would trade the lives of a few Americans to kill a union movement.

[ScottfromTexas]

@GrinchandMax - if you want safety END IMMIGRATION. Are you willing to kill Americans for a loose immigration policy?

[GrinchandMax]

I constantly tell my owner to hire Texans. Legal ones. Illegals come to Texas because Texas Republican business owners hire them. Wake up, bro.I see it everyday. All my life I've grown up with Republicans whose businesses rely on immigarnt wages. Even memebers of my own family.

[ScottfromTexas]

@GrinchandMax - rely on low wages, you mean? Rich getting richer.

[GrinchandMax]

Hey man if you take away Rick Perry's friend's access to cheap Mexican labor then you take away his power. Same as everywhere. At some point Republicans are going to have to decide what they want. But what hey will NEVER get is work visas or non-unionized labor. EVER. Not gonna happen.

So back to DeMint. He obstructs for money. Period. He probably feels a little like Reagan, too. A little fantasy he's having with himself.

[ScottfromTexas]

@GrinchandMax - I find it difficult to follow your post. We have work visas and non-unionized labor already. What are you talking about?

[dogstar7]

FKKK U ScottfromTexas

[dogstar7]

Maybe we should have stopped immigration about 120 years early. Your clod-hobbing grandfather would have had his Tubercular ass kicked back to whatever overseas hovel he was tossed out of for lack of wit.

[ScottfromTexas]

@dogstar7 - there is going to be a cost to allowing ever lower standards when it comes to immigration.

[KataVideo]

end immigration, starting with your ancestors

[ScottfromTexas]

@KataVideo - they didn't come here to soak up welfare programs.  They didn't come here to change America. They didn't come here expecting others to speak their language.

[dogstar7]

Who's soaking welfare, you racist piece of shit?

You shifted the conversation from airport security to your filthy race hatred. You're a sick bigot, one-trick-pony. Your daughter probably dates Mexicans.

[jpsoraire]

Demint needs to go. Someone dig up some affair he had. The Republican Party leaders are Notorious for that.

[beckisright]

McCaskill always name calling, Shes the Nut Case. If Obama is so great why does she feel the need to defend him with her lies all the time. She is a partisan hack.

[unapimper]

With a name like "beckisright" you sure know who to call a "partisan hack" while soaking up that label with your blatant hypocrisy-laden tomfoolery. A perfect example of today's "conservatives". A bunch of hacks who puts ideology before the safety, security, and prosperity of America.

[ScottfromTexas]

@beckisright - stay-puff marshmellow woman who hates her own constituents as seen from her town-hall meetings.

[KataVideo]

her constituents were fine, it was those out-of-district teabaggers who were bussed in who tried to cause trouble. poll after poll indicates most people in America disagrees with filthy, stupid, smelly, screechy teabaggers.

[ScottfromTexas]

@KataVideo - it is Democrats who have done that for decades. Only people I see bussed in are Mexicans when it comes to some immigration issue besides the SEIOU or whatever these thug union members are.

[SuperEvilC]

So true!

[KataVideo]

demint doesn't care how many Americans are killed. 

to demented demint, 100 dead Americans are better than 100 American Union members.

[ScottfromTexas]

@KataVideo - Americans are killed? Well, we had 3000 Americans (though in truth many were foreigners, actually) killed due to immigration. I guess you don't care about that?

[KataVideo]

we had 3000 Americans (and some of those nasty, nasty foreigners) killed because asshole bush missed a memo.

everyone knows it. conservatards fail at national security, they failed at the economy, they fucked up everything they touched.

[ScottfromTexas]

@KataVideo - the official story is that the 3000 were killed by immigrants....yet they did little or nothing to stop immigration! End it now - even reverse it. Get rid of all the foreigners in this country - we don't need or want them.

[KataVideo]

who's "we" asshole? America loves immigrants. you had two anti-immigration candidates in the gop primaries last year.. they didn't win ONE primary. America had the chance to embrace your idiocy and we sent tancreepo and the other fatass packing.

America loves Immigrants more than America likes racist fucktards.

[ScottfromTexas]

@KataVideo - nonsense - 70% of Americans want a moratorium on immigration. Anti-immigration groups like ALIPAC have nearly a million active members. NumbersUSA is also up there. If you think the fixed primary process is any reflection on what Americans think then why did the most reviled and hated candidate "win"? McCain? Are you kidding? No one even wanted to admit supporting him and I live in a liberal area.

[KataVideo]

nope. the election is proof. I doubt this group actually has a million members, but even so, that's 1/300th of the population. pretty meaningless.

[GrinchandMax]

"With all due respect?"

See, this is the kind of bipartisan hogwash that hurts America. DeMint is nuts. Period. And he does not deserve repsect.

[IAMtheNewWorldOrder]

DeMint is the epitome of what the republicans have become since losing in 08: first of all he's delusional and thinks the american people will still swallow his bullshit like his party is still in charge, secondly, he's about obstruction and nothing else, and third he's also an ignorant idiot from the south.

But he says things in a very firm, and serious tone.

[dmp079]

Jim DeMitt is nuts! He so content on making anything the president do his Waterloo. SMH!

[BlueSkies360]

DeMint is great!

[ScottfromTexas]

@BlueSkies360 - yeah, DeMint is the only good Senator I know of currently.

[callouschristian]

scott from texas give folk from der bd nm. i lrnt to reed thare.
