"They won't compromise or capitulate." Goper tantrum about his Democratic governor.

[MissMarple]

I've been having some technical difficulties...argh.

I posted this on Archae's thread in GD. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x761326

But later the last line of this snip caught my attention. I think it needs wider viewing. Archae has the video link in GD. It's sad for this guy. The GOP, especially at the state level, believe the myths they have been told, aren't used to compromise and bipartisanship. The whole thing is a foul mouthed meltdown, contrived or not.

"HELENA - The House Republican majority leader, Michael Lange, unleashed a profanity-laced tirade at Gov. Brian Schweitzer Wednesday, saying the Democratic governor "can go straight to hell."

Lange, of Billings, exploded during a meeting of House Republicans Wednesday morning and repeatedly attacked Schweitzer, who was not present.

The GOP leader called Schweitzer an "SOB on the second floor that thinks he's going to run this state like a dictator."

He later apologized to fellow House members on the floor.
Rep. Bill Wilson, D-Great Falls, then rose on a "point of personal privilege" to respond, saying he had never heard anything as "vile and as insulting as I heard today."

"Mark my word," said Wilson, a 14-year veteran of the Legislature. "This is a very low point in the history of this body."

Lange's blow-up came about 90 minutes after he had met with Schweitzer to talk about an offer that Democrats considered a tax and budget compromise to end the session.

He told House Republicans he considered the offer a "bribe" and that he was standing up for his caucus and what it believes in.

"So my message to the governor is to stick it up your ass," Lange shouted angrily. "That's my message to him. Stick it up your ass."

Many of the House Republicans applauded this comment. Some, however, sat stone-faced listening to the ranting by Lange, who has expressed interest in challenging Democratic U.S. Sen. Max Baucus next year.

At one point, Lange accused Democrats of negotiating like "radical socialists" like those in the Soviet Union, North Korea and "Red China." They won't compromise or capitulate, he said."

3. He would not have said that to the Governor's face

Brian Schweitzer has no truck with these types; these scumbag Repukes in the mold of Conrad Burns - they are a dying breed in Montana and are in their death throes; what a joke, he is considering running against Max Baucus! Glory, go for it scumbag!

5. Capitulate, huh?

ca·pit·u·late –verb
1. to surrender unconditionally or on stipulated terms.
2. to give up resistance: He finally capitulated and agreed to do the job my way.

6. After 12 years of virtual dictatorship, these sacks of excrement have

a lot of nerve calling anyone a dictator.

Ya know, you can't always get your way you frickin cry baby. You can't always buy someone off. You can't always bully people around. Grow the fuck up and just help run the country.

Whining republic rich brat bastards.

7. That should take care of his bid to unseat Baucus. If so, then it is

a rant worth the idiocy.
