Nancy Pelosi's Revenge. (1)>>The California Democrat has been in Congress for three decades, spending half of that time as party's top House official. To Republicans, she is a useful bogeyman, the wealthy San Francisco liberal forever plotting to raise your taxes. More recently, her own party's ascendant left has taken aim. She’s the Republicans’ whipping gal — but President Trump said Saturday that he endorses Nancy Pelosi wholeheartedly as House speaker.“I can get Nancy Pelosi as many votes as she wants in order for her to be Speaker of the House,” Trump tweeted. “She deserves this victory, she has earned it,” he tweeted. “But there are those in her party who are trying to take it away. She will win!”He later called her “tough” and “smart,” gushing to reporters, “I like her, can you believe it?” IS THAT JUST CRAZY OR NO ??? But the President's curious tactics, and perishing thirst for some deal, any deal, shouldn't obscure the quietly efficient work of his partisan opponents. (1.1)>>AS SPEAKER of the HOUSE it puts Nancy 3rd to the succession to the Presidency of the United States . She had the votes to make history in 2007 when she became speaker of the House, not only becoming the first woman to hold that title but in the process, rising higher in U.S. electoral politics—and closer in the line of presidential succession—than any woman before or since. She beat Hillary Clinton to the highest position in the nation , even if she is back. Regardless of how many reputable pollsters and number crunchers project the speaker of the House’s gavel is going to Nancy Pelosi and Democrats gaining seats in the Senate, perhaps even enough to gain the majority there. We all know the Democrats won back the majority in the House of Representatives so now they've got a real opportunity to infuse the house with some bold new leadership that is relentlessly determined to champion progressive ideals and obstruct Trump's decimation its (2)>>Deja Vu again ! Ssixteen House Democrats have signed their names to a letter released Monday opposing House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi in her bid to become the next speaker of the House. The letter from Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-NY) and (3)>>15 other Democratic members was released on Monday, after a week of intense speculation about whether it would come out.“We promised to change the status quo and we intend to deliver on that promise,” the group wrote. “Therefore, we are committed to voting for new leadership in both our Caucus meeting and on the House floor.” However remember Deja Vu in action. If it seems like we’ve been here before, it’s because we have. Keep in mind with Pelosi there packs some nasty politics that are ahead . She is one of those & The problem for Democratic strategists -- of which Pelosi is at the top of the heap --For the base, their hatred of Trump is so pure that there is nothing negative for or about him that they wouldn't be willing to countenance. For Democratic leaders, talk of impeachment hands Republicans a ready-made issue -- a way to caricature Pelosi and her caucus as radical leftists blinded by partisan hatred. Yes Government shutdowns will return .
Midterm election FRAUD !
Midterm election FRAUD !
a day before the election MSNBC gave way to suspicions that our elections are indeed a fraud . |
comedian George Carlin had a lot to say about the current political system, that we call “democracy” and how it really works, when he was still alive.
….I have solved this political dilemma in a very direct way: I don’t vote. On Election Day, I stay home. I firmly believe that if you vote, you have no right to complain.
Now, some people like to twist that around. They say, “If you don’t vote, you have no right to complain”, but where’s the logic in that? If you vote, and you elect dishonest, incompetent politicians, and they get into office and screw everything up, you are responsible for what they have done. You voted them in. You caused the problem. You have no right to complain.
I, on the other hand, who did not vote — who did not even leave the house on Election Day — am in no way responsible for that these politicians have done and have every right to complain about the mess that you created.
NOTES AND COMMENTS:
(1)>>The California Democrat has been in Congress for three decades . She has said that if Hillary Clinton had won the presidency, she was prepared to retire—knowing both that the legislative legacy she shared with Barack Obama would be safe and that a woman would have not just a seat at the leadership table, but the most powerful one. (1.1)>>AS SPEAKER of the HOUSE. IN the 3 decades of Pelosi the position of the Speaker of the House has been a roller coster ride four different Republicans have served as speaker of the House: the kooky Newt Gingrich, now an unofficial Trump adviser; the disgraced Dennis Hastert, who admitted to child molestation and pleaded guilty to bank fraud charges three years ago; the furious John Boehner, who recently resurfaced as an advocate for marijuana legalization; and, currently, the young wonk Paul Ryan, who will retire from Congress at the end of this term. These four men all represent different priorities within the GOP agenda. They share credit and blame for the party’s recent legislative record. In their differing priorities and temperaments, they represent various characterizations of the Republican agenda.There’s only one Democrat who, as House speaker, has embodied the liberal agenda. That’s Pelosi,her first time as Speaker was nothing but a failure . (2)>>Deja Vu again ! Donald Trump is not so stupid why he congratulated Pelosi , he knows that she brought the house down for Obama , was ousted by Paul Ryan in 2010. As the House Democratic leader since 2005, Pelosi is unpopular (her approval rating was 29% in a national Quinnipiac University poll in February) and extremely well known (83% of voters in the Quinnipiac survey knew who she was). That twofer of familiarity and voter fatigue is why the demonization of Pelosi remains a staple of Republican attack ads. In 2009, Pelosi persuaded deficit-wary Blue Dog Democrats to back Barack Obama’s stimulus package, and it passed without a single Republican vote. The following year, when Rahm Emanuel, then the White House chief of staff, suggested scaling back health-care reform after the Democrats’ surprise Senate loss in Massachusetts, Pelosi insisted that Obama maintain his goal of universal coverage. She enraged her pro-choice allies by allowing a vote on an amendment prohibiting women insured through the law’s health-care exchanges from receiving government-subsidized abortions. But that gave antiabortion Democrats cover to support the bill, which passed with nary a Republican vote.(3)>>15 other Democratic members was released on Monday. Still, Pelosi, who made history as the first female speaker of the House, is facing an open rebellion from a bloc of 16 Democratic lawmakers who signed a letter calling for a change in the “status quo” of the party’s leadership. And at least one Democrat – Ohio Rep. Marcia Fudge, a former chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus – was mulling a challenge for the top spot.(4)>>POLLS AREN’T EVEN NEAR BEING CLOSED YET. Like I have BEEN saying . ITs not possible that on a single NIGHT THAT EVERY BALLOT IS COUNTED . Its IMPOSSIBLE when your dealing with MILLIONS of voters [ estimates vary on how many people voted , in 2016 While election officials are still tabulating ballots, the 126 million votes already counted means about 55% of voting age citizens cast ballots . The MARGIN of ERROR is vary high. ] Many of these mail-in ballots were ether dropped off at polling places on Tuesday or, if they were postmarked by Election Day, are still making their way through the U.S. Postal Service. Of the 202,000 mail-in ballots sent to voters, only 96,622 mail-in ballots were returned early enough to be counted on Election Day. Now suppose we had perfect vote counting systems, with zero measurement error, and the election comes down to a single vote. Now, surely, your vote matters, right? Well, which one of the millions of votes on the winning side gets credit for the win? Every single person cast a vote, so the credit perhaps should be shared across all of the millions of voters.
