"The Witness May Not Refer to a Member of the Committee as Stupid"

House Democrats running a hearing on racism on social media was bound to be an embarrassing disaster. And that was before Rep. Ted Lieu, the most embarrassing House Dem not to be a CBC member, decided to run a gotcha routine on Candace Owens.

And before Rep. Nadler, trying to figure out how to monetize the post-Mueller landscape, decided to step in and defend him. That resulted in Nadler delivering a line that just begs for the Mark Twain treatment. "The witness may not refer to a member of the committee as stupid."

Of course she didn’t say it. And of course, it wouldn’t be factually incorrect if she had.

[G Larry]

Dems are providing the fodder for their own defeat with all of this public stupidity.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

. . . even if you have categorical proof that they are.

[DoughtyOne]

Mr. Chairman, is it okay for a member to make statements that leave no doubt that they are stupid?

[jalisco555]

Sorry, she took an oath to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

[DoughtyOne]

Exactly...

[TLI]

But she would have been repeating herself, had she actually said it.

As Forrest said, “ stupid is as stupid does”.

[fungoking]

It is “The honorable” stupid congressman from Hawaii...

[Leep]

Is God scrambling up their brains?

[a fool in paradise]

Lieu is a liar and a despot.

[RinaseaofDs]

Mr. Chairman, is it OK if other people looking on these proceedings come to their own conclusions about the stupidity of the Congressman, or is that off-limits too?

[BitWielder1]

Lieu quoted Owens out of context, misrepresented what she meant and Nadler failed to parse what Owens said and latched on to a trigger word instead.
Some intellectual giants we have in congress.

The witness may not refer to a member of the committee as stupid.

Sure thing, dimwit.

[Mr Rogers]

She didn’t say it. She THOUGHT it, but didn’t say it.

[DoodleDawg]

But the witness is under oath. Is he supposed to lie?

[hal ogen]

I would use “nitwit” to describe these LIB lunatics. Is that OK???

[longfellow]

She shut down Tokyo rose.

[euram]

She didn’t call him stupid, but she did call him dishonest. But, she would have been well within her right to call him stupid. Wadler is a pathetic waste of skin.
