"Madam Speaker" couldn't even say anything without being told exactly what to say by that drone in front of her.

What a pathetic waste of oxygen! Talk about a room temperature IQ!

Who in the world is that “madam Speaker”? I hope to goodness that she is one of those who were thrown out! If not, she should be for the action we just saw!

I might have to change my name out of absolute shame. I came up with it a lot of years ago, before everyone productive left and every leech in the country came in.

Nancy is gnashing her teeth.

I’ve no doubt she would have taken this guy out, if she had to arm wrestle him to the floor. She’s in a bad mood lately.

You got that right.

She was way out of her league trying to run the Speaker's chair - and I believe it was the Democrat palimentarian who was using her as a sock puppet (because Rep Laura Richardson didn't know what to do). She obviously was put into the chair because she did what she was told (like a good Nazi).

The woman is a joke. But, get a load of this (from Wikipedia):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laura_Richardson

"Richardson was raised by a single mother after her parents divorced when she was two. Her father belonged to the Teamsters labor union.[1] Her father was black and her mother was white. Richardson has said that racism against their mixed-race family was "what got me since the age of about six of wanting to be a public servant.....Controversies Richardson was accused of receiving preferential treatment by a bank when it rescinded an apparently erroneous foreclosure of her house, but was cleared of wrongdoing by the House Ethics Committee [5], in accordance with the recommendations of the Office of Congressional Ethics [6]. Upon the death of Juanita Millender-McDonald, her predecessor in the 37th Congressional District, Richardson seems to have put all of her funds into winning the resulting special election, and as a result stopped paying her mortgages. Following the special election, she made agreements with Washington Mutual to catch up payments on her 3 properties, but the bank violated this agreement with regard to the Sacramento property when it foreclosed on the house. The bank then rescinded the foreclosure, causing the controversy. After her election to the California Assembly, Richardson purchased a home in Sacramento with no money down[7] and a subprime mortgage. According to county records, Richardson received a default notice and Notice of Trustee's Sale in late 2007. In December 2007, Richardson was behind in payments by more than $18,000.[8] According to the couple that sold the home to Richardson, Richardson was not maintaining the home. Sharon Helmar has stated: "The neighbors are extremely unhappy with her. She didn't mow the lawn or take out the garbage while she was there. We lived there for a long time, 30 years, and we had to hide our heads whenever we came back to the neighborhood."[9] The real estate broker who bought Richardson's Sacramento house at the foreclosure sale accused her of receiving preferential treatment because her lender had issued a notice to rescind the sale. James York, owner of Red Rock Mortgage, said he would file a lawsuit against Richardson and her lender, Washington Mutual, but settled out of court with the terms not disclosed. Richardson had not been making payments on the property for nearly a year, and had also gone into default on her two other houses in Long Beach and San Pedro. Richardson, D-Long Beach, has said that the auction should never have been held, because she had worked out a loan modification agreement with her lender beforehand and had begun making payments.[10] Richardson also initially did not disclose a loan from a strip club owner when on the City Council, public records show.[11]

His body language is delicious, and his powerful words ring true. The political treachery and lack of order is the reason the Americans A) Got horrible law this session, and B) Threw the motherhuggers out of office.

2008

while the foreclosure of the two-story Sacramento home she bought shortly after being elected to the Assembly in 2006 may have been the first time she lost a house, it was not the first time Richardson had fallen behind on her payments. It continued a pattern started eight years ago.

Since then, the homes she still owns in San Pedro, where her mother lives, and Long Beach have fallen into default six times. The amount she owed ranged from $5,742 to almost $20,000, according to documents on file with Los Angeles County.

“She has this habit of missing payments and then trying to catch up instead of doing it monthly,” said Verla Saylor, who sold Richardson the Long Beach house and carried a second mortgage.

The defaults have come at a quick pace lately, five in the last 13 months and the most recent March 28. The five defaults totaled nearly $71,000. During much of that time, Richardson was bankrolling her political career, lending her campaigns for Congress and Assembly a total of $177,500.

Although candidates sometimes use their home equity to help finance campaigns, experts couldn’t remember anyone losing a house over it. “It’s very surprising a member of Congress would allow it to happen,” said Bob Stern, president of the nonpartisan Center for Governmental Studies in Los Angeles. “It’s also very embarrassing. That’s an understatement.”

News of Richardson’s troubles with the Sacramento house was first reported this month by Capitol Weekly.

Not only has Richardson missed house payments, but she is behind on her property taxes, a lien was placed on her Sacramento house because of an unpaid utility bill, and she angered her neighbors by not keeping up her home.

She’s a Hillary superdelegate
By Michelle Malkin • May 21, 2008

California Democrat congresswoman Laura Richardson “walked away from the mortgage on her $535,000 Sacramento home, letting the house slip into foreclosure and disrepair less than two years after she bought it with no money down.”

It’s not her primary residence. According to Capitol Weekly, “[s]he also owns a four-bedroom house in Long Beach, in her Congressional district. Real estate records show she purchased that house in 1999 for $135,000. An estimate from Zillow.com puts the current value of that house at $474,000.”

The city utility department placed a lien on her property in June 2007 for $154 in unpaid bills, according to documents at the Sacramento County recorder’s office. In December, she received a default notice on the mortgage from the collection agency of Washington Mutual Inc., her lender. At that point, she owed $18,356.

County records show the property was sold to a company called Red Rock Mortgage Inc. of Sacramento for $388,000 — although the county assessor’s office continues to list Richardson as the owner. No listing could be found for Red Rock.

Records at a Sacramento County tax office also show Richardson is delinquent in paying $8,950 in property taxes.

I’m seeing this clip everywhere, but no one is saying what the bill was or what was the outcome of Buyer’s protest.
