Somehow the group of lesser jerky-jerks perceives they will gain a political advantage. Meanwhile, in the real world, actual things happen while they argue over which strongly worded letter should be sent to whom. None of this charade has a basis in anyone giving a crap about the actual content of a tweet or the rhetoric from the other side that preceded it. It's all about them and their own maneuvering for power as usual. They can get bent. Edited July 16, 2019 by 4merper4mer 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Collins wants her words stricken from the record. She left, then the guy who was chairing left in a huff. Just mentioned a Speakers words have not been taken down since 1984. they should be recorded and should have always been recorded. what are they afraid of, being held to task? disingenuous *****. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) So... Hoyer ruled Pelosi's words were out of order -- which required a vote of whether or not to... follow the rule? Now, if enough people vote against it, the words will stand. If it gets voted for, Pelosi wouldn't be allowed to speak on the floor for a full day. Like an adult time-out. No wonder people hate Congress. Babies. All of 'em. (With 5 min left in the vote, how many GOP congressmen are being screamed at to haul ass to the floor to vote. ) Edited July 16, 2019 by Deranged Rhino 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works great for them as is. They're not even serious people at this point. You’re looking at it the wrong way. The mistake you’re making is that you’re proceeding as if their goals are to solve problems, and conduct the business of the People. That’s not why they’re there. They’re there to create fiefdoms, and inter generational political legacies that essentially install them as royalty, enrich themselves and their progeny, and place them and those close to them above the law. Towards those ends a look of bumbling, and the action of providing their constituents with pork much better secure their end goals. They are incredibly serious people.
