Interesting to hear Maxine Waters slip, realize how bad she f'd up, then try to cover it up.

Sigh.

Edited - here's the unedited clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUaY3LhJ-IQ

...as opposed to the Republican solution of having the oil companies control the government.

I didn't see her try to cover anything up. She was quite clear about her threat to back oil industry nationalization if she believes they are price gouging us. She stumbled trying to find the proper word, 'nationalize'. Those crazy Californians. The oil companies will have priced themselves out of the market long before nationalization becomes anything other than idle talk.

If you think nationalization of our oil industries is a "Good thing," then that is disturbing.

I'm not happy the Republicans make the oil industry part of the US government whenever they're in power. Why would I want anyone else to do it?

The clip is nearly two years old.

I love it when these idiots post these meaningless clips like they're some kind of smoking gun. I've learned that anything posted by one of these right-wing wackos that's accompanied by a triumphant "AHA!"-type post is usually comedy fodder and not much else.

Yeah, she's a real piece of work.
