So she took up a spot that a real homeless person might have gotten?

How compassionate!

Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

~Matthew 6, verses 2 and 3

How about trying running a business instead?

You can see how all the BS rules and regs keep you from hiring more people top keep them from being homeless.

Regular people? When Speier and her fellow leaches give up the house gym, the house bank, the special 0bamacare hotline, the hair salon, the special airport parking, the ability to bypass the TSA, the ability to ignore discrimination laws...

Yeah Speier is regular people.

Too bad she couldn’t abort herself too.

I’m actually quite surprised.

MSM articles mentioning the “homeless” have pretty much disappeared since Jan 2009.

Yeah sure, and she probably was sleeping in a $100 sleeping bag, kept warm with an electric blanket, and had her personal armed bodyguard standing a few feet away from her.

And all this after she had a 6-course meal at the taxpayer’s expense.

She is really roughing it.

Any stories of fat cat liberals giving up any of their money, comforts, stuff in order to equalize with the lowly?

The word hypocrite comes from the Greek word hupocrites, the mask-wearing actors of Greek theater.

Since it was a San Francisco article, I was hoping Piglosi.

How many “homeless people “ has she taken into her spacious. Upscale house? I normally wouldn’t ask except that she’s making such a publicity stunt out of this.

Does this dipstick seriously think that "middle class" means sleeping in a homeless shelter?!

Talk about out of touch!

While I commend Rep. Speier for rolling up her sleeves and getting involved, it remains that the states have never delegated to Congress, via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for the homeless.

Note that Founding States had made the 10th Amendment to clarify in general that the Constitution’s silence about things like the homeless means the following. “Government” power to regulate, tax and spend on behalf of the homeless, in this example, is automatically reserved uniquely to the states.

So some state rep. should have been inspired to do this project.

Every member of congress SHOULD be required to follow the constitution.

Now that she’s spent the night in a homeless shelter she can get a job in Hollywood playing a homeless person.

“balancing out the growing economic inequality that has ravaged the middle class for years”

What she is really saying is that she is fine with the poor being poorer, so long as the rich are less rich. That is what “income inequality” means! It is the tacit admission by those who speak the phrase.
