I really think she's just gotten too old and tired to do the job with clarity anymore.
Quote:
Nancy Pelosi took her dazed and confused act to prime-time TV on Monday night, joining CNN's Chris Cuomo for a town hall.
She did her same old tired schtick (more on that later), but the highlight of the night was when Jake Lee, a small business owner from West Hollywood, Calif., stood up to ask a question.
"Good evening, madam leader. Before the election on November 8, your side of the aisle were asking for the former head of the FBI to resign," said Lee. "Now that he has been let go, why the sudden and selective outrage from your side of the aisle?"
Pelosi is immediately befuddled. "Some people were asking to be let go," she said inexplicably (presumably she meant asking that former FBI Director James Comey be let go). But she went on, her hands flailing about wildly and her eyes growing wide as saucers.
"I said I thought that it wasn't a good -- well suit -- he wasn’t well-suited to the heat that comes with the job, but I never said that he should be fired," Pelosi said.
(Perhaps technically true, but you'd have to give her comments back on Nov. 2 a liberal reading. On CNN that day, she suggested Comey might soon be out. "Maybe he's not in the right job," Pelosi said. "I think that we have to just get through this election and just see what the casualties are along the way." Now if that's not a veiled threat, I don't know what is. And many people in her party were calling for him to be canned).
With Pelosi in mid-gesticulation. "And for the president of the United States to fire with his own self-admission that he didn't like -- he was tired of the Russia-Trump probe, is, uh, is, uh, uh, distressing. It's distressing. We believe in the FBI as being an independent law enforcement agency, to be respected, and not to be fired by president because he's tired of an investigation they're doing."
That's up to her constituents, not any of us. That is, unless the OP claims to live in her district.
9/10ths of you posters have some lame idiot representing you in Congress. Focus on him/her and let San Franciscans worry about their own representation.
Strom Thurmond served 48 years in Congress. He died while serving as a Senator at age 100.
Goes to show just how strong the bond between a Congressman and his constituents can be. If Thurmond's voters wanted him gone, he would have gone. Same goes with Pelosi. She'll go when she's good and ready, but not a minute before then.

So you think she should be heading commissions and voting on issues important to the whole country given her rather obvious mental issues?
You have one thing correct, as an escapee from CA (who still cares about my home state) I'm now stuck with John McCain who is the Republican Party's equivalent of Liz Warren. McCain is someone else who's past time to toddle off into the sunset, maybe arm in arm with Pelosi?
