Nancy Pelosi wants the word “hate” banned from political contexts
Examiner ^ | February 8, 2011 | Marc Schenker

Nancy Pelosi wants the word “hate” banned from political contexts. Fired former Speaker of the House and current Minority Leader, Nancy Pelosi, is going on record as saying that she wants to use censorship to ban one, particular word that she does not like. The word? “Hate.” To hear Pelosi tell it, she really hates it when other Americans use the word “hate” in a political context. Pelosi’s overreaction is in response to the Bill O’Reilly Superbowl interview with Barack Obama, in which the host asked the president about the number of people who hate him. Pelosi’s reply to the O’Reilly question was swift and confident: Simply stop using the word, and everything will be fine.

Yes Nancy. Let’s begin by repealing all hate speech laws.

Personally, I’d like to see the words Nancy Pelosi banned from all political context.

But...

If you ban ‘hate’, you can’t have all those ‘hate’ crimes laws.

Nancy, Nancy, Nancy...be careful what you wish for. You might just get it — and it probably has unintended consequences. Sort of like that massive healthcare bill you had to pass to know what is in it.

“Nancy Pelosi wants the word “hate” banned from political contexts.”

How about double-minus unlove?

“Nancy Pelosi wants the word “hate” banned from political contexts.”

Let the old broad wallow in her irrelevancy. If that’s the best she can come up with, we’re headed in a more positive direction - and there is virtually no chance she’ll ever ascend to power again.

Perhaps she can redirect some resources from the shadow “Ministry of Silly Walks” to keep track of words that are allowed to be uttered in pursuit of political discourse.

I guess she’s finding it hard to think having to fly home in mere first class commercial flights.

Banning the word “hate” would eliminate at least 50% of all liberal political discourse. Nancy didn’t think this through.

I am sitting here reading all the Posts and Nancy is catching hell.

Every Post is an attack against Nancy.
and she deserves every one.

But look at facts.

She was just elected to lead the Minority in the House.
She lead the charge for Obamacare, and she won with every Democrats behind her.

If Nancy is stupid, what does that say for the rest of the Democrats in the House.Is she not the most intelligent of the pack? Arent they all just as stuid or even more so?

Seems like “political context” is the ONE place they can’t ban “hate” as a word or context. Something about a First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law... abridging freedom of speech or pf freedom of the press...”

What a sad excuse for a human being Pelosi is. What part of “Congress shall make no law...” can’t she understand?

As usual...
Democrats/Liberals reveal they haven’t read the Declaration of Independence
or the Bill of Rights.

Nice to know that Pelosi has been neutered after the last election.
