It's frightening that you fear a 74 yo lady and believe there's something to get away with.

I suppose she should have just yelled "YOU LIE!" Which apparently is the decorum you would prefer.
Good ole VB. He just can't help himself.

The hole in your argument is that he didn't lie.

That is absolutely disgraceful--even for the House. I often wonder if the lack of civility in this country flows from the leadership down to the people or vice-versa.


Yes, both up and down. And yes, pretty obvious that Marino hit a very sore spot with Pelosi and she lost control. But as others have said, the liberal media will give her pass. If a Pub had done this, we would never hear the end of it.

This woman is an embarrasment to our great country.

There are those who believe she is a drug addict, cocaine, and she suffers from dementia.

She needs to be removed from office under whatever House rules there are for this stupid act.

If someone put a gun to your head and asked who is crazier, reid or pelosi, how confident would you be that you could choose?

Some dumbass in some other thread was trying to say that the dems in Congress are not uniformly left wing kooks but these are their selections for their leaders. That means way over half of them are indeed kooks.

The Regressives like Sheila Racerace Lee can get up there and make all kinds of horrible accusations and Luis Guitierrez can call the GOP baby killers in Spanish and make threats and all of that is just fine.

But let someone tell the truth about a Regressive Democrat and all hell breaks loose.

I love Robin Williams' take on Parliament - it's like Congress with a two drink minimum:

In all seriousness, I am beginning to wonder if Pelosi is experiencing some form of early onset dementia. Aka Alzheimer's. It's not just this latest episode, that makes me wonder.

Thats a hard one there. I have a 50/50 chance of getting it right. I would have to think hard and long on that one.

This is what happens when you sincerely believe that not only are your political opponents wrong, they are morally inferior.

And Pelosi is the only one that thinks this way? No Rs do? No one on this board?

Yes because the GOP is constantly accusing the Left of wanting to end Medicaire, SS, causing someone's wife to get cancer and die, making commercials showing a Congressman pushing an elderly lady in a wheelchair off of a cliff, having a "War on Women", hating Hispanic and AA children and accusing anyone who disagrees with the President as being a racist.

There's a phrase that was coined in the 60s, during the Anti-War Movement. It was "The political is the personal". Those who shouted it the loudest are now members of the Democrat Party, and are serving in Congress.

Politicians like Pelosi are more harm than they're good. It's way past time this vindictive lady rides off into the sunset. That's if she really loves America. Many others have been around way to long and have so much hate inside. That it clouds their judgement & ability to do their jobs. There's both Dems & Reps that need to go......
