Impeachment: The Speech Nancy Pelosi Wished She Never Gave
saraacarter ^ | December 18, 1998 | Nancy Pelosi

Posted on 05/08/2020 8:47:18 AM PDT by MarvinStinson

Today the republican majority is not judging the President Clinton with fairness, but impeaching him with the vengeance.

In the investigation of the President, fundamental principles which Americans hold dear, privacy, fairness, checks and balances have been seriously violated.

And why?

As we are here today, because the republicans in the House [of Representatives] are paralyzed with hatred of President Clinton. And until the republicans free themselves of this hatred our country will suffer.

I rise to oppose these unfair motions, which call for removal of the President of the United States from office, and in doing so wish to point out some differences between the investigation of the president and the investigation of Newt Gingrich.

The first principal of the investigation of Newt Gingrich was, that at the moment we found exculpatory information it will be reported immediately to the accused and be made public.

The independent counsel knew that the President was exonerated Travel Gate, White Water and File Gate and he held that information until the hearing, indeed after the election.

This was not fair, indeed it is the responsibility of any prosecutor to immediately release information that is exculpatory.

This is assuming Nancy Pelosi is a normal (decent) human being, apart from her chosen career as a politician.

Trump ripped Pelosi as “third-rate politician”, and Americans are (in general) too well-bred to call her names that she truly deserves as a human being.

Ancient water off a ducks back. The crone regrets nothing but suffers mightily from the insults the President throws her way every day.

The Presidential insults made on world watched tv almost daily carry far more weight than a few words made so long ago most can’t remember and what’s more, don’t care.

Yes.

The open lie by Clinton, the interference in the process (suborning a witness; Lewinsky) done by the top person in government, well, in the eyes of Leftists, that counts for nothing.

Bunch of pukes, especially Pelosi.

I look in her eyes and see Satan looking back. Hillary, too. They have literally given their souls to the Devil. IMO

Lewinsky wasn’t the only witness bribed or threatened or coached to lie. The Clintons interfered in several of the investigations. Fornigate PROVED the tactic by the Clintons.

“...She’s so vapid it won’t phase her...”

Exactly. These CROOKED, LYING Democrats live under the assumption they have NO ACCOUNTABILITY for anything they say and do. So far, they are pretty correct. That is why they keep doing it.

The speech she wished she never gave? The writer assumes some kind of sense of shame which Pelosi probably has never had. Any sense of shame has been burned out of this family generations ago.

A person with no conscience cannot experience regret or shame.

The only thing Nancy Pelosi wishes for is the complete elimination of everyone who does not agree with her.

These phony “reporters” demand Trump and his people address any contradiction, or apparent contraction, from years ago, but Nancy and the rest of the leftie crew get a pass.

He should have been impeached over the Chinese bag men carrying money to the White House and the missile technology transfer to China which jumped them ahead 20 years

The Republicans idiots that they are made a gross tactical error impeaching over the Lewinsky affair and the perjury. As disgusting as all that was oh, it was never going to resonate politically with a good chunk of the American people primarily Democrats of course.

I said that at the time and not changed my mind since.

The one thing that those not in agreement with anything that Nancy Pelosi says or does is her complete elimination of any activity having to do with public office.

Scum. An object example of, if we let them get away with this crap perpetrated by the Obama Administration, we will only see more of it.

These people should be punished. Severely.

Nanzi clearly wears two hats...which is fitting because she’s two-faced.

The fact that America elected Clinton was the true crime. The left says that about Trump but can’t even say he was actually elected. What Clinton did to this country was impeachable as was the BS from Obama. Sometimes I want to play the left’s game and pretend POTUS Trump really is a “Hitler” and an American “dictator”.I then imagine every last treasonous, scum, deep state swamp,#NeverTrump and leftist in our government,media and education rounded up and disappeared.
