Pelosi: No reason for Grayson apology By Mike Soraghan - 10/01/09 11:39 AM ET

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said there's no reason for Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) to apologize for his "Die quickly" remark, since Republicans have made statements just as outrageous as his.

"If anybody's going apologize, everybody should apologize," Pelosi told reporters at her weekly press conference. "We are holding Democrats to a higher standard than their own members."

Republicans like Joe Wilson speak the truth -- and are forced to apologize for it.

Democrats like Grayson spread hateful lies -- and no apology is necessary.

Just the way it is.

I suppose Grayson cannot help being a jackass any more than Pelosi can help being an imbecile.

This Un-American hate talk on the left is going to incite violence.

“We are holding Democrats to a higher standard than their own members.”

I think what she means is the Republicans are holding the Dems to a higher standard. (It would be nice if we didn’t have to translate.) Anyway, whatever she means to say, it’s hilarious. Since when have the dems been held to any standard at all?

What happened to Orlando? The area used to be moderate Republican when I lived there in the late 1990s. Grayson seems like a kook leftist.

OK, Ms. Pelosi. I apologize. But for what, I have no idea.

Same thing that happened to southern New Hampshire - and to Vermont and Maine.

Moving maggots from Massachusetts.

In the last Congress the egregious Pete Stark called President Bush a liar, and Pelosi and the Democrats voted down a motion to censure him.

"Higher standards"!

This is great news comrade. We want the democrats to look so hypocritical that even sheeple can’t deny it.

She is correct. He was just being a Democrat. It looks like that sooner or later our side would realize the extent of their hatered toward us. The law won’t allow them to kills us yet. But that is subject to change.Soon.

Yup. He rode the Obama Craze wave into office in what’s essentially a Disney (family/ conservative) district, 52-47. He’d’ve been unlikely to win ANYway in 2010, even without this boorish behavior. Perhaps he knows this, and therefore is making the most (worst?) of his short stay.

Republicans have wished no such thing on people, either in writing or voice. Their statements have been quite the opposite and FOR life. Grayson was grabbing for wild sound bytes and got them.
