At Pelosi’s weekly press conference this morning, she made the point several times that there was a huge difference between George W. Bush asserting Executive Privilege over the firing of US Attorneys and Obama using it yesterday. When asked what the differences were she deferred to Elijah Cummings on the issue. But then she took a moment to tell the press what this contempt vote was really about, to stop Holder from fighting voter suppression in this country:
Contempt of Congress? Contempt of Congress? To frivolously use that really important vehicle to undermine the person who’s assigned to stop the voter suppression in our country? I’m telling you this is connected. It is no accident. It is a decision and it is as clear as can be – not only to monopolize his time, it’s to undermine his name, to undermine his name, undermine his name as he goes forward to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

yes, F&F surpressed votes, the votes of the people the DOJ got killed in F&F.
obody who has attained the position of Speaker of the House, and has the nerve to tell the American people that “we have to pass the bill so you can find out what’s in it,” should EVER be taken seriously about anything.

Yeah, Nance. Tell that to Brian Terry’s family.
Is Pelosi senile or just a corrupt, lying, elitist witch?
She’s both but this is beyond despicable for even her.
Supressing votes, that is what she thinks the inquiry is about.
I’m sickened to my stomach.
I see they thought of a brand new excuse/talking point. Senile old witch.
Then they lied about it repeatedly under oath, as you continue to do.
In a way, it is about voter suppression, in that all those convicted of federal crimes in this scandal will lose the right to excercise their voting priviledges.
Pelosi continues to prove that no matter how low they go, the left can always go lower...
“Is Pelosi senile or just a corrupt, lying, elitist witch?”
I’ll go with answer C: Both
There is no reason she can't be all of those. They are not mutually exclusive.
LOL that’s a photoshop idea worth consideration.
I think she stays up at night just dreaming up this stuff so she keeps her name in the news. She’s a fools fool.
This twit claims she could have arrested Karl Rove for contempt of congress when he didn’t even do anything, then this guy actually engages in a conspiracy to steal my rights under color of authority and contempt is too strong a reaction??? Too weak, I say.
Yes.
This is the one of the most contemptible statements I have ever heard. These Democrats apparently think they can make any outrageous lie and get away with it. This stupid woman wants to inflame blacks for her and her party’s political advantage.
(I know, I know)
She does sound even less sane than usual. If SCOTUS guts her proudest accomplishment, the Capitol security office may need to call in the guys with the tranquilizer guns.
If so, I hope someone captures the scene on video.
