Scary Ohio Rep Jeanne Schmidt screaming at Anti-Abortion Rally in DC

[KoKo]

She's out there shouting about the dark day when abortion was declared Legal at what looks like some big rally. It was on CNN she sounds deranged...She said her parents said the decision "wasn't worth a pound of salt!" :eyes: Like that was supposed to be a profound statement about their anti-abortion views.

I turned it off...but thought I would alert you all.

[FreedomAngel82]

1. Scary

Why scream?

[wtmusic]

2. She's hard to watch

But thanks for the warning...

[BlueEyedSon]

3. "Pro-Abortion"?? No one is pro abortion.

[jackster]

5. Likewise, EVERYONE is pro-life

I HATE these labels

I prefer PRO CHOICE/ ANTI CHOICE

[KoKo]

6. Oops! Edited my post....sorry...I think it's a dupe to. She got to me...

Her evil scrambled my brain....

[wtmusic]

7. Please don't rain on their parade

and get with the program...Democrats live to kill babies and spit on our troops.

[Hubert Flottz]

4. Deranged is puting it mildly!

And Triple ugly. * Looks like a Kathrene Harris Clone.

[tridim]

8. What do average Ohioans think about this?

I ask because I know average Kansans (Republicans included) hate the whack-o religious right takeover of their government. There has to be a backlash, even if Diebold makes sure the "official results" are skewed.

[mongo]

11. Average Ohioans think shes a nutcase.

Diebold decides our elections for us now.

[MercutioATC]

15. Except for the troglodytes in OH-2, that is.

(no offense intended to NON-troglodytes who live in OH-2)

[mod mom]

20. Perhaps if there wasn't high hmidity that fateful election day Hackett

would be the 02 Rep from Ohio.

[MercutioATC]

21. I know there's controversy about the election. I'm not buying it.

I think it's amazing that Hackett did as well as he did in OH-2. Democrats do NOT win there.

[mod mom]

25. If repugs can win legitimately then why the need for all the tricks,

delays (not only in this case Clermont County and in '04 Warren County). He was ahead. Humidity problems. Mean Jean wins. If they have nothing to hide, then there should be no issue to open up their records w/o funny business.

[MercutioATC]

27. What tricks?

The last precincts to be counted (after the humidity issue) were KNOWN to be Schmidt's power base. I don't find it surprising that they put her over the top.

[WCGreen]

30. Amen....

It is so easy to blame our defeats on Diebold....

It's like a safety net....

[MercutioATC]

31. Yet when we WIN, we never question why Diebold didn't stop it.

Funny how that works...

[autorank]

36. Every state is different. If you presume uniformity, you're over simplify

...ing.

First of all, the fact that Republicans don't win every every race where Diebold is involved in no way proves a lack of election fraud. That dog won't hunt. People might notice.

Second, there are some people who really, really matter, like Bush. Diebold delivered.


Third, it's not just Diebold, voting machines are accessible through a number of means. Our votes go in, the vendors capture, manipulate, and report them (non of which we see, none of which we're allowed to examine). We have out sourced our elections.

Too simple, find another excuse to legitimize Bush and Co.

[MercutioATC]

40. My point is that we cry fraud whenever we lose...

...even in races we KNOW we're going to lose. I think it weakens the argument that real fraud may exist at times.

[autorank]

43. No we don't. I don't see that happening at all. I don't do that.

Why generalize so broadly, it dilutes the point.

We don't have to prove fraud.

Elected officials OF ALL PARTIES have to prove that they were really elected (fair elections, processes open to public examination, ballots there to count).

If they can't do that, THEY ARE NOT LEGITIMATE.

It's far broader than one vendor or even technical reliability, it goes to this: can our elected officials prove legitimacy. Right now they cannot.

[MercutioATC]

44. I disagree.

A voting system has been put in place. If we disagree with either the system or the results we have to prove why the system should be changed. Asking a candidate to "prove that they were really elected" is like asking somebody to prove they're innocent. It is our job to prove guilt...

...and I think people listen less when we scream "fraud" every time we lose an election...

[autorank]

48. Wrong...."The election system must be above suspicion..."

The ruler rule based on legitimacy. Legitimacy is based on election. The election process is run by the rulers but it is of and for the people, hence the conflict and suspicion. The election system must be above suspicion, therefor it must be open, transparent, and subject to thorough examination. If it's not, then the rulers lose legitimacy.

[MercutioATC]

50. The majority believe in the legitimacy of the system.

Therefore, the elected have legitimacy. There will always be some who question the legitimacy of elections regardless of the process used. If the majority consider the process to be legitimate, then it's so.

That's why it's a dissenter's responsibility to prove otherwise.

[autorank]

51. The majority wanted to stay an English colony. This is useless. Adieu

:hi:

[mod mom]

37. No one blamed Diebold, if you knew your facts, you would realize that

Diebold wasn't used in any of the 02 District at this time. Also if you bothered to follow the invesitgations, you would be fully aware of the multitude of dirty tricks utilized by the Ohio GOP.

[MercutioATC]

39. I'm aware of them, I just don't see that election as suspect.

When the Dem is barely ahead and Claremont County has yet to be counted, you can pretty much assume that the Repub will come out on top. Humidity or no, Hackett didn't stand a chance in Claremont County.

[liam_laddie]

19. bitsch-midt is challenged

And not just in her mental capacity. Two established repubs in the district, Tom McEwen
and maybe Tom Brinkman, will run against her in the May primary. I don't know much
about McEwen, but Brinkman is a very right-wing case, playing to the no-choice crowd,
a real neanderthal. Experienced and reasonably charming, both have a degree of popular
support among the numbnutz crowd. Both could probably beat schmidt alone but could
split their support if they both run. In any case, it'll be nasty...fun to watch from the left sidelines.
Now if only we can marginalize "Kenny Boy" Blacksoul for guv'nor...
Bitsch-midt has a twin sister; can you imagine the damage done to the gene puddle?
And I am one of the several hundred thousands of non-troglodytes around here. Good term
for the dark side!

[KoKo]

35. It does make one wonder what the hell is wrong with Ohioans...and

living here in North Carolina..I see their license plates all OVER our state and in South Carolina, too.

It seems they want to spread their "Ney THINK" down here in our RED STATES to all the Retirement Communities..where they drive their cars and feel at home for "RETIREMENT" in FUNDIE RED STATES!

I get SICK of seeing FUNDIE OHIO LICENCE PLATES ...Invading MY SOUTH!!!!

[channa18]

9. This is the same miserable drain on the gene pool.....

that called MURTHA a coward and then begrudgingly withdrew her remarks.

I dont believe in violence but i would make an exception in her case.

DID I MENTION HOW MUCH i HATE THAT POS ??

[cantstandbush]

OMG, it is raining on their parade!!! n/t

[stepnw1f]

10. Evil Itself Has No Other Issue to Latch Onto

Seriously... these people are so morally bankrupt they need to inflate this issue, but in reality their issue is a PERSONAL ONE! They should live as they preach and shut the fuck up!

[Cleita]

12. Hmm. I wonder if she ever had one.

Sometimes those who protest the loudest.........

Would there be a way of finding out? My Congresswoman in Idaho, Helen Chenoweth, was one of the loudest of the moral police condemning Bill and Monica for adultery and lack of morals.

It turned out that she had an adulterious affair in her past that was exposed. It was enough to make her retire from Congress.

I think if we want to send these freeper politicians into early retirement, we are going to have to start publicizing their hypocrisies.

Oh, as for Helen, she married a white supremist and moved with him to his compound in the Nevada wilderness.

[channa18]

13. Who the hell would want to have sex with her in the first place ??

Some desparate, lacking emotion,and is a moron.

uh-oh...I smell*.

[Cleita]

22. I thought the same about Helen Chenoweth, but lo and behold

she found a new husband, not the best pick but available and willing, nontheless.

[channa18]

24. Yeah...some things are difficult to explain.

[never_get_over_it]

32. Oh we had one of them in the State Legislature in VA

right wing freak bible thumping anti abortion freak who was "dating" a member of Congress from VA who just so happened to vote for two articles of impeachment against Bill Clinton while he was "dating" the state legislator - oh did I mention that both of them were married to someone else while they were "dating" Now at first we thought this was just a rumor and of course since none of us actually saw them have sex with each other we couldn't prove that they were "dating" while married to someone else - but guess what - they're married to each other now....what a happy ending - freak hypocrits.

[Greeby]

14. Schmidt brings new meaning to the phrase

"Flying Monkey Right"



"I got you, my pretty! And your little Congress too!"

[channa18]

16. AAAAARRRRRGGGGG!!!! ...My eyes...I cant see !!

n/t

[channa18]

17. BTW...How much does she charge to haunt a house ?

.

[EST]

23. Ya' can't afford it!

She's drawing such a huge pile of protection money not to haunt. Probably a tough habit to break and costs her a bundle, emotionally. Mebbe that's the reason she has to "vent" so often.

[Sydnie]

42. Oh my gawd! that is freaking scary! n/t

[Algorem]

18. the humanity.

[Bake]

46. Nope. That ain't human. No way. n/t

Bake

[FreedomAngel82]

26. I noticed some

had the "Justice for all" sign. How hypocritical.

[Vinca]

28. It's a shame Mean Jean's mom didn't have the option of legal

abortion. (Ooooh - Vinca's being snotty today.)

[KingFlorez]

29. Shut up Jean!

No one cares to see your ugly face on the television.

[WI_DEM]

33. She's a witch--of course that is insulting to witches, so lets say she's a

bitch instead.

[northzax]

34. a pound of salt?

I thought we were going back to the days of the founding fathers, back then Salt was almost as expensive as Gold, so to TJ and Co., a pound of salt would be incredibly valuable.

[warrens]

38. If we can't beat this bitch...

Time to turn out the lights and let the troglodytes take over completely. She's not just insane, she's a vicious piece of shit.

[Javaman]

Wow, what an imbecile.

[Javaman]

41. Wow, what an imbecile.

[McCamy Taylor]

45. Some state is already trying to make it illegal to go to another state for

an abortion in anticipation of an overturn of Roe v. Wade.

Stuff like this and pics of Schmidt need to be on TV for America to see.

[dusmcj]

47. is she psychotic ?

she seems to be trying to release some inner daemons which turn her into an eye-bulging harpie from time to time. Ohioans seem to either be nice mellow people, or smoking righty whackjobs from hell. Maybe it's from being too close to Indiana. Maybe she needs to smoke a bowl, get laid and relax. Oh, I guess those don't all quite go together with "righty whackjob from hell". Oh well, I tried.

[Freddie Stubbs]

49. She makes me wonder

about Paul Hackett. Perhaps the reason that he ran such a competitive campaign wasn't because he was a great candidate, but that Schmidt was such an awful one.
