I’ve been asked to share the details of Minority Leader Pelosi’s father and his involvement with these Confederate statues. Pelosi’s father, Baltimore Mayor Thomas D’Alesandro, Jr., spoke as the mayor at the dedication of a monument to Confederate Generals Robert E. Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson in 1948.



quote:

At the dedication, he said, “Today, with our nation beset by subversive groups and propaganda which seeks to destroy our national unity, we can look for inspiration to the lives of Lee and Jackson to remind us to be resolute and determined in preserving our sacred institutions.”

Not to mention that she called Paul Ryan (and I am no Ryan fan) out for not having statues removed in Washington. In her obvious middle stage of dementia she must have forgotten that she was Speaker not too long ago.

That is my whole issue with monument removal. Don't tag this on the Republicans.

If you want to take down monuments knock yourself out, but when you do so you must acknowledge the party that put them up. It is the same party that enacted Jim Crow Laws and supported the KKK.

Hint: it's not the Republicans.

Whitewashing their own history, and the best part is dems are the one who put the statues up to begin with.

Don't worry, she'll be along shortly to entirely disavow him. Pelosi clealry understands that you're not allowed to be proud of your ancestry if they've ever done something wrong. She'll make this right. For sure.

She won't respond and none of her supporters will give a rat's arse.

Do you really want to compare Pelosi's father to Donald's?

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted RACIST BLOOD you've given
I give you all a DAUGHTER could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Oh tainted RACIST BLOOD
Tainted RACIST BLOOD

Why would you want Senile Nancy to step down or resign? She's the gift that keeps on giving. As long as she and unfunny Amy Schumer's uncle are the leaders of that party, they will continue to fail.

Wasn't D'Alesandro heavily involved in organized crime? Do you really want to go there?

Just saying, I don't think we need to get into judging politicians based on something their parents did, especially if it is as weak as a speech a mayor gave at a dedication in 1948.

A lot of good people had lousy parents.
