Pelosi: If Boehner were a woman he'd be considered weakest speaker in history By Daniel Strauss - 05/14/13 07:32 AM ET
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) would be considered a weak speaker if he were a woman, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said. "Well, I will say this about John Boehner —and I have a good relationship— if he were a woman, they would be calling him the weakest speaker in history," Pelosi said during an interview with MSNBC's Chris Hayes.
Hayes then asked Pelosi to elaborate.
"Well because they never get anything done," Pelosi said. "Where are the results? They've never been able to pass anything without our coming to the rescue except their very and, in my view, unprincipled budgets."
Pelosi added that she's tired of the double standard.
"So when people ask me I think: you know what, if a woman were speaker and nothing was happening in this way, they'd say 'oh my gosh,'" Pelosi said. "I'm just getting a little, shall we say, tired of the way they take a pass on some but not on others. We get a criticized for accomplishing things. They don't get criticized for not accomplishing things."
Crying cause his daughter married a soetoro voter with skin in the game. Bohner needs to step down and let a real conservative take his place.
Boehner makes Denny Hastert and Bob Michel look like profiles in courage.
I have no doubt that he’s been shown his FBI file.
hear, hear!
Mark Levin called out Boehner last night on Sean Hannity. Maybe Boehner will find his ‘courage’ today but I seriously doubt it........
Boehner already is a weak speaker, Miss Idiot
Thought about this a minute and I think what she is saying...is that Boehner agrees with her behind closed doors and is too weak to go full blown democrat on us and fight for the democrat agenda.
Boehner is a democrat but just too wussified to embrace it.
If Miz Pelosi didn’t have breasts one of the members would mop up the floor with her.
I'm gonna splash some cold water on my face & reread this to be sure.........
Damn, I still agree with her.
John Boehner AKA "The No Nutz Putz"
Judging from the latest pix of Pelosi, those dugs unleashed could mop the floor themselves.
Pardon my nasty mood.
Even pe-LOUSE-i rags on boner. boner truly is limp, vapid and feckless.
Even as an alleged man, Boehner is among the weakest Speakers in history.
When Nancy Pelosi holds you in contempt for your ineptness you’ve got to know you have problems.
If Nancy is disparaging him, maybe he’s doing something right.
When you are right you are right.
“Well because they never get anything done,” Pelosi said. “Where are the results? They’ve never been able to pass anything without our coming to the rescue except their very and, in my view, unprincipled budgets.”
Clear evidence of her illness. I detest this evil woman.
Chihuahua girl speaks the truth
Boehner makes Denny Hastert look like Chuck Norris, but there aren’t a lot of guys in the Republican leadership who could step up and do better. And reps like Trey Gowdy aren’t going to be allowed anywhere near the Speaker’s chair unless they learn to play nice with K Street.
If Pelosi were a man she would have been working a counter at a coffee shop somewhere rather than marrying a corrupt husband and gaining enough fear factor to be elected to office.
