Democrat Revolt: Which House Member Said ‘F*** the President’?

ABC News:

An unidentified Democratic lawmaker let slip his frustration at President Obama’s proposed tax compromise, apparently muttering “f**k the president,” during a heated debate this morning.

As Democratic House members met this morning in a closed-door session to determine if they would vote on the compromise tax plan the White House hashed out with GOP leaders, one member forgot the Capitol’s rules of good decorum.

During a speech by Shelley Berkley, D-Nev., one of only a handful of House Democrats to back the President’s plan, a colleague interrupted with his own colorful opinion.

“I don’t think the curse word was directed at me,” Berkley told reporters following the caucus meeting.

Democrat Revolt: Which House Member Said F*** the President?

Roll Call:

“It wasn’t loud,” the Nevada Democrat said. “It was just expressing frustration from a very frustrated Member.”

Rep. Jerrold Nadler (N.Y.) was also overheard saying that “we can’t trust him” not to cave to Republicans and extend the tax cuts again in two years, according to a Democratic source.
The anger aimed at the bill was widespread. As Democrats moved to block the bill from coming up on the floor, chants of “Just say no!” could be heard by reporters outside the room.

More discussion from Fox Business, where FBN contributor Charles Payne says someone owes Rep. Joe Wilson an apology:

And Howard Fineman weighs in on MSNBCsaying that “we had a fairly liberal use of the ‘f word’ inside those closed doors”:

Rep. Joe Sestak asks why they didn’t vote on this before the election:

    it is amazing that the media gets the names right when it is a secret, but not a politician cussing the president, that is way we don’t trust them, they only report what they are paid by george sorros to say, but with that said, i myself have said that about the democratic party in the last 2 years and the gov also, because that is exactly what they have told the American people.

    The problem is the words ‘tax cuts’, as if they were giving us a gift by NOT taking our money! It‘s the money we make and we want to continue to keep it without having to give in on any ’deals’ for the ones who would extend the unemployment benefits, or any other entitlement. When is enough, enough?

      Thing is…With a Republican house they might make the tax cuts permanent or cut an otherwise good bill. But remember the senate is still a democrap majority! And…Even if it passes congress then Obama can simply veto it.

      There is a good chance that if this crappy compromise does fail congress we may not see any tax cuts in the next two years. I do not think that would be the end of the world, remember, the more damage done to our country by these dems the more serious the people will be in Nov. 2012. No matter what happens, to get this country back on its feet we are all going to have to sacrifice in one way or an other. Someone commented on this in another thread, my reply to them is if it means I pay an extra $3000 a year and have to cut the grass myself and maybe not go out to dinner so often then so be it. Until the government gets serious and makes drastic cuts across the board we will only be playing the same old DC game.

    Does anyone else think this whole act by the Liberals in the Democrat Party is part of a grand “rope a dope” plan? I think it is because this will let Obama bring his numbers up by triangulating between the leftists and the Republicans. Obama can’t be this inept. It almost gives me the sense of when an offense uses the overaggressiveness of a defense against itself. (little football refernce there…sorry can’t help it). The Republicans (feeling strong right now) will be portrayed by the left and the media as the shills for the rich while the Dems are trying to protect the “little guys”. Why can’t anyone call it like it is…a tax hike if nothing is changed and current law expires?!?!

The government is robbing people of their inheritance through the death tax, property owners of gains on the sale of the houses etc. And what are they doing with that money. wasting it on perks, for themselves and buying votes so they stay in office for 30/40 years and feather their nest.

      They’re little children. The don’t get their way and they pout. It’s what you would expect from a liberal. Liberalism is a very immature notion. They have zero self confidence, zero confidence in others and couldn’t take care of themselves if they had to. It’s a horribly sad mind set. They problem is when they have power. They are not grown up enough to lead. The simple facts today are; Republicans for first time in two years negotiated with our president. The far left that has taken over the Democratic party threw a temper tantrum. When everyone’s taxes go up, the blame rests solely at the feat of the Democrats in the House of Representatives. Thank god, they are only in control for a few more weeks. I don’t think the country could survive anymore of their incompetence. Good by, good riddance, and don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way. See ya! America see’s the left for what it is and only the profoundly stupid by into their puerility. I have zero respect for a liberal, as only someone juvenile and ignorant could be one.
