Pelosi to Ryan: Don't use hacked documents in campaigns
Associated Press ^ | Sep 6, 2016 5:43 PM EDT | Alan Fram

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi urged Speaker Paul Ryan on Tuesday to keep Republican candidates from using hacked Democratic documents in this year’s election campaigns, the latest political twist in a summer of revelations of digital break-ins believed linked to Russia.

“Russia’s cyber attack is an unprecedented assault on the sanctity of our democratic process,” Pelosi, D-Calif., wrote in a letter to the Wisconsin Republican. “We must come together to say that defending our democracy from Russia’s meddling is more important than any advantage or disadvantage in this election.”

A GOP aide said Ryan cannot control campaign ads by Republican committees that by law are barred from consulting with the party’s candidates. …

Screw that.

Use every weapon at your disposal, and use them ruthlessly.

Democrats are LAW-LESS because Republican "leaders" are BALL-LESS!!!

Pauly Ryan is probably kissing her feet at this moment or else quaking in his boots.

We just know, of course, that if the situation were reversed and it was REPUBLICAN internal documents that had been hacked by the Russians, that paragon of Congressional bipartisanship, Nancy Pelosi, would be issuing the same call for bipartisan unity to support the democratic electoral process and urging her own party’s members and supporters not to use the documents for political advantage.

Yeah, in a pig’s eye. Oink, oink.

LOL…hearing that nasty woman pleading “the sanctity of the electoral process” is a joke. I’m sure if Assange had damning information about Republicans, Pelousy wouldn’t pass up the opportunity to bludgeon them with it. Too bad that the lying- cheating party may finally have their tactics aired in public. But Pelousy need not worry. The moron Democrats will still vote for their food stamps and Obama phones and pull the D lever on Election Day.

There is no Russian cyber attack

Russia is a whipping boy

The DNC must be put down along with the principals. The corruption is criminal

Pelosi is criminal, unfit to breathe American air

1. The Russians aren't the source of these documents. 2. The documents/emails are real - and they were written by democrats who have no one to blame for their behavior but themselves. 3. The democrats have stolen/removed documents from the National Archives, defied court orders and destroyed evidence (e.g. Hillary's devices and hard drives), colluded with the media, colluded with/used the IRS as a weapon against their rivals and enemies, and used sealed court records to smear Republican candidates (e.g. opening the court records of Jack Ryan's divorce to help win Obama his Senate seat).

For them to ask anyone not to use this information from WikiLeaks against them is a joke. Pelosi has no honor. None. She is as partisan and self-serving as they get.

Pelosi to Ryan: Don't use hacked documents in campaigns

You and the horse you rode in on Nazi.

digital break-ins believed linked to Russia.

Believed by whom? And at this point, what difference does it make?

It's the content, and who sent the damning information that matters. Let the public be informed. We need to read them to find out what's in them.

We must come together to say that defending our democracy

Stop it right there, IT'S NOT A DEMOCRACY! It's a republic, and it sure as hell ain't yours.

Russia’s meddling

Never mind Russia, it's your traitorous party's actions that need to be examined and prosecuted. Maybe you and Hillary can hang together.

A GOP aide said Ryan cannot control campaign ads by Republican committees that by law are barred from consulting with the party’s candidates.

Of course the same law would apply to the RATs, but then again, why would she know about obeying the law?
