Dianne Feinstein: "All vets are mentally ill in some way and government should prevent them from owning firearms." Yep, she really said it in a meeting in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. And the quote below from the LA Times is priceless. Sometimes even the LA. Times gets it right.

Kurt Nimmo: "Senator Feinstein insults all U.S. Veterans as she flails about in a vain attempt to save her anti-firearms bill."

Quote of the Day from the Los Angeles Times:



"Frankly, I don't know what it is about California, but we seem to have a strange urge to elect really obnoxious women to high office. I'm not bragging, you understand, but no other state, including Maine, even comes close. When it comes to sending left-wing dingbats to Washington, we're Number One. There's no getting around the fact that the last time anyone saw the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Maxine Waters, Kamala Harris, and Nancy Pelosi, they were stirring a cauldron when the curtain went up on 'Macbeth'. The five of them are like jackasses who happen to possess the gift of blab. You don't know if you should condemn them for their stupidity or simply marvel at their ability to form words."

“. . . the last time anyone saw the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Maxine Waters, Kamala Harris, and Nancy Pelosi, they were stirring a cauldron when the curtain went up on 'Macbeth'. The five of them are like jackasses who happen to possess the gift of blab. You don't know if you should condemn them for their stupidity or simply marvel at their ability to form words." — Columnist Burt Prelutsky.

This sort of blatant stupidity on the parts of liberals elected from Commiefornia is what the entire Nation is accustomed to hearing from the “Left-Coast”.

And Feinstein’s comment before a committee I find personally offensive. Like much of her other mutterings. Her statement should be Immediate grounds for removal from public office.

Nobody voted for them.
They are part of the ballot harvesting that has been growing in strength for decades culminating in the 2020 elections.
Libs hate America and all who believe that the USA should be the syrongest and greatest nation on the planet.

As anyone with a functioning brain realizes, she obviously never said anything like that.

As usual, the Right-wing knows the only way they can get people to listen to him, is by spreading lies about the Left.

It's true enough that this is not a direct quote, but no matter how you and all these 'fact checkers' parse it, the paraphrase perfectly encapsulates what she said. Anyone with a functioning brain would realize that.

JamesCurran Loc: Trenton ,NJ

Please... Provide the exact quote from her which can be paraphrased to that.....

FrumCA

Why bother asking this? You have already demonstrated that you won't accept the answer. I try to waste as little time as I can.

Texcaster Loc: Queensland

Parse away ... not even Trump would try and pass off that nonsense as encapsulating anything other than cynically misrepresenting Feinstein's words.

FrumCA

Whatever suits your fancy Tex. Stick with your music.

JamesCurran Loc: Trenton ,NJ

So, in other words, you admit she never said anything like that, and you just pulled that out of your ass...

And he got away with that in California? Gutsy guy. Maybe there's hope for them yet.

Agreed.

Further checking reveals the quote attributed to Feinstein is indeed UNTRUE (Snopes, Politifact, et. al).

Although that sort of blatant statement regarding mental capabilities of Veterans would be the sort of thing a liberal Californicrap might THINK, Feinstein is likely far too canny (+ crafty and careful) to say such a thing in public.

Apologies to all for passing on unchecked information. —Wyantry
