Hey, Nancy, how about a light?

By Michelle Malkin  •  August 1, 2008 05:44 PM


Madame Speaker, can you spare a light?

Democrat House speaker Nancy Pelosi controls the cameras in the House chamber.

C-SPAN sends a reminder:

Media Advisory Concerning C-SPAN and GOP House Members’ Post-adjournment Protest on House Floor Friday Afternoon

Washington, D.C. (August 1, 2008) - A number of media organizations have incorrectly referred to “C-SPAN cameras” being turned off and not providing televised coverage of the GOP House members’ post-adjournment protest on energy policy being held on the House floor on Friday afternoon. Please note that cameras in the House chamber are under the control of the Speaker of the House and that all media organizations, including C-SPAN, wishing to cover events in the chamber must use the official House TV feed. No private media cameras are permitted in the House (or Senate) chambers.

So, to recap: The “most open and ethical House ever” went dark– and C-SPAN and every other media outlet were powerless to broadcast the proceedings of the GOP revolt–because Nancy Pelosi and the Dems didn’t want the public to see and hear the voices of GOP lawmakers on the House floor talking about their energy proposals.

Nancy, is this how you advise America’s daughters to use their power?

What are you afraid of?

Tell Nancy to keep the cameras rolling when our representatives are on the floor. Here’s her blog.

I left her a detailed phone message. I also spoke to a nice young man answering the phone at the CSPAN office. And I spoke with someone at the House Minority Leadership office. And for good measure I called Rep. Kevin McCarthy's office, just to make sure he was staying in Washington, although I did not get a definitive answer from his receptionist.

I do think the Lavender Mafia has completely taken over Washington DC. Every receptionist I spoke with was a man, except for one rather masculine sounding black female.

lefties tend to be activists, while righties tend to be productive workers.

btw, according to a poster on MM, Nancy's blog is closed to comments. Figures.

Don't even want to think of that.

(did you know there's a 'Doctors warn against 'designer vagina' craze' thread?)

remember when Newt was blamed for shutting down government? Why isn’t Bela Pelosi getting the same treatment? She’s done worse, because when Newt shut government down, he was SAVING the American people money. Nancy is COSTING us money every day she won’t let a vote go through on drilling!!!!

C-Span has an update - the upstairs galleries ARE FULL! Pretty historic stuff.

“Right at the stroke of five Georgia Rep. Tom Price announced that House Republicans were ending their impromptu protest on the floor of the chamber, ending a five-plus hour rebellion with a round of “God Bless America.””

This woman is first woman bitch speaker of the House. We are totally behind every Republican who stayed ( and I think they all did) and will continue to let America know that the Democrats are responsible for the prices we pay at the pump. Uncapped sources of oil could be put in working order in less than a year. We have Pelosi to thank for the no vote.

This COMMUNIST RADICAL LEFTIST WITCH is really playing her oppressive ruler role. She should be impeached and thrown out of a job the stupid voters of this country set her up for in 2006.

They've closed shop and are heading home.

I think I hear Belapelosi's laugh in the distance.

I did not know that. It looks likes it’s been deemed “inappropriate”.

“Lefty loosie, Righty tighty”

Anyway, Pelosi’s gone strawberry fields. Next, she’ll be clacking ball bearings in one hand and muttering “Mutiny, sir, this is mutiny!”

;^)

They simply need to get a camcorder and release it all on youtube. And I would not let up on any of this.

Naturally. It didn’t go on long enough. Republicans have no clue as to what they are facing or how to handle it. That explains the suicide the party has committed here in 08.
