Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) on Thursday defended her decision to vote present during the Houses impeachment vote, saying she does not believe in good consciences she could vote either yes or no.
First of all, throughout my life whether it was through serving in the military and in the different decisions Ive made in Congress, I always think about whats in the best interest of the country. People will agree sometimes with those decisions, may disagree with those decisions, but my motivation is always coming from a deep love of country, she said in an interview with The Hill TVs Rising.

Pfffttttt! If princess kama nawannaleiya really was sincere, she could have made the statement more pertinent with a NO vote. A present vote is not a vote. It's an attendance note.

Pelosi in March: "impeachment must be "compelling and overwhelmingly bipartisan."
Nancy yesterday: "Frankly, I don't care what the Republicans say."
Such a freaking hypocrite

Exactly. She’s trying to have it both ways. At least AOC is true to her beliefs, as warped as they are. Gabbard is all over the road map wanting to please everybody. A fraud and a fake!

I look forward to seeing every president impeached for obstruction of congress. Obama got lucky. Today with Eric holder refusing to testify, Obama would have been impeached under the new articles of impeachment. Way to go liberals.

Yeah, but according to nanzi, no matter what the senate does, he will always be impeached. What a fookin’ idjit. If the “indictment” in never presented to the “court”, it’s moot. So, you just hang on to it nanzi. Maybe use it for some sort of sanitary something or other.

She tried to have both ways and now she looks weak and indecisive. By standing alone and condemning both sides in the impeachment process?
Try again...

Welp, you didn’t vote against it Tulsi, so you are not a leader.

I don’t know how she got away with calling President Trump a “pimp” with her being an active military member. Pretty much anyone else would have at least got a reprimand.
