Pelosi-buster: House Democratic leader speaking non-stop for 6 hours demanding immigration vote

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has been holding the floor of the House of Representatives for more than six hours and counting Wednesday, in a marathon speech protesting a budget deal reached by Senate leaders.

In her remarks, Pelosi announced that she and many fellow House Democrats would oppose the package unless House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., promised to allow a vote on a plan to shield from deportation hundreds of thousands of immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally.

It is awful watching anyone with a death wish execute herself, much less on the House floor.

It’s like she wants to keep going til she collapses. I’m no fan, but someone get her some water. Is this some attempt to hide her being ousted by making her into a martyr for the dreamers as she’s pulled out on a stretcher?

At some point she is bound to be really funny . . . should provide us with memes and sound bites for decades.

Since the House pharmacy needs to get her anti-senility meds to her about every 4 hours, she may be running on fumes.....

Actually, I think it’s disgusting that she gets to pull this stunt.

After this, I hope Trump withdraws his “dreamer” offer entirely and announces that, since the democrats have rejected his deal, he’s begun deporting the illegals immediately.

It would also be nice if Paul Ryan retaliates (yeah, I know, THAT’LL be the day), by pulling his OWN stunt tomorrow, though instead of whining about illegal immigrants, he goes through the corruption in the F.B.I., media and the rest of the Obama government step-by-step until the liberals heads explode.

C-Span says this is the longest house speech since 1909. I thought Senator Byrd spoke for like 25 hours back in 1964?

So they focused on Obama care and still suffered the biggest shellacking in history.

Ooops
