House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi applauded Rep. Bobby Rush, D-Ill., who was admonished Wednesday for wearing a "hoodie" sweatshirt during a speech in memory of Trayvon Martin, a teenager who was killed in February.
"I think that Bobby Rush deserves a great deal of credit for the courage he had to go to the floor in a hoodie, knowing that he would be told he was out of order," Pelosi told reporters Thursday. "He quickly left the floor, he wasn't contentious about it. But he made his point. He called attention to a situation in this country that needs to be addressed in a way a man in a suit and tie might not be able to do."

I was thinking something similar too.
How much more of their crap in congress are we going to take? It’s been proven that you can’t VOTE the POS’s out, so it may be time for a Plan B.
and being told he was Out of Order!!!!
But what about Alice Cooper telling people You Can Go To Hell? “Being a brat, refusing to act your age.”?
Oh, that’s wearing a Hoodie on the congressional floor
Nancy-Lower-Than-Sh*t-Pelosi speaks yet again.
Not even Hillary can crawl around in the filth like her Chief Bootlicker.
I think Nancy Pelosi needs to get some courage herself and show up on the House floor in full burqa, in solidarity with her Muslim sisters.
Anyone who willingly violates house rules should be fired.
I don’t think so, Hell doesn’t let you out on Day-Passes.
He probably hasn’t read the rules, either because he feels entitled to be ignorant, or he is just to damned stupid to understand the content.
After watching the tape of this moron on the House floor last night I was ashamed of our nation. to think that this jerk, who could not even put a sentence together, is actually a member of the House.
...(too) damned stupid, is what I meant.
More spew from that effin’ whack job.
When Ross Perot was talking about the ‘crazy aunt in the attic’, he had no idea it would be manifested by the cunning runt from ‘Frisco years later.
There has never before in the long, proud history of FReeRepublic.com a better description of SanFranNan as the one you posted. It captures her essence beautifully.
I heartily concur.
John, it looks like you’ve got some competition.
Remember that nitwit Jim Wright who used to carry on a virtual state department function from the speaker’s rostrum in the house back in the 80’s? That was the beginning of the end of any vestage of a pro america dummocrat party in the Congress.
Now then, this jerk Rush shows up with a hoodie. Is there not a Sergeant at Arms for the House? Bonehead should have had him removed.
Nancy and several other congresscritters would look nice in jailhouse orange.
All about sucking up to loony minorities many of whom are racist and have zero aptitude for logical thinking. They thrive on emotion and misinformation. They refuse to exert themselves to be better informed because it’s more fun to go batshit over alleged racial slights
I wish I could push this woman off the Sunshine Skyway Bridge here in Florida.
The Florida media is beating this story to death.
I cannot watch the news anymore.
