I think “holding seats” was the problem to begin with. (Sorry, I just couldn’t resist.)

It seems it sure was good politics to lie about the whole mess, trash Foley, and separate gullible conservatives from the the GOP leadership so Gay San Francisco could control the Speaker’s gavel for the next 4 years.

Barney really hates the idea of a Democrat getting kicked out for being gay. That’s only supposed to happen to REpublicans.

Thank you.

And may I add John Boehner has kicked a lot of Rat butt this year and I think we all ought to give him credit for that.

So, who’s going to bring a hearing? The botox company? Are they deemed evil yet? They’re big pharma, I suppose...... Oops, the dems support them, they’re ‘little’ pharma until nancy crokes.

"The House voted 402-1"

It is a non confrontal vote that they can all get away with. Simply shows what they truly think of her.
Hmmmm, wonder what she is thinking tonight?

In politics, perception is everything.
And yet politicians never seem to learn that.
Republicans should have backed away from everyone involved in the matter, and that includes Boehner.
Now they have no moral authority to go after Nanzi Pelozi because Boehner is still the top Republicam in the House.
Mike Pence would have had the moral authrity to go after Pelousy if he was the Republican Leader.
But instead, Republicans just open themselves up to charges of hypocrisy.
Yet another casualty of keeping the ineffective Boehner on as Republican leader, even after all the damage they've incurred since he took over from Tom DeLay back when the GOP was still the majority.

Of course, that’s why Massa is angry, he knows they would have kept him in power if they had his vote. They only pushed him out when he stood in their way.

"Mark Foley had to be broken by the press."

On orders of the Democrats, and maybe specifically by Nancy Pelosi?

Hmmmm. Speaking of one's own petard --

Speaker Pelosi's Ethics (2007):

Ethics in politics is not the same as ethics in real life. Ethics in politics is a martial art. The biggest mistake you can make is thinking that the ethics package proposed by new Speaker Nancy Pelosi is mainly about "cleaning up" politics. Maybe. But it's first of all about cleaning the clocks of the Republicans.

We're out here debunking this crap daily. We are the revolution! And normal people are finding us! Keep it up, the government hates us because we're the TRUTH! We are exposing them.

Pass it on.

Conservativism is truth.
