Let's try to force a Censure on Pelosi
Hell, they want to spend all their time doing that and saying their sorry.

Let's make Nancy sorry she ever took Impeachment off the table and make her say it.

On the grounds that she is not the decider on what to follow in the constitution. How dare she. Really, how dare she.

I know we really don't have the votes for that, but by simply taking it off the table isn't she saying that she doesn't follow the constitution. I think thats worse than offending the damned preznit.

1. It's the grand meme
"How dare you insult someone of ROYAL blood"

Everyone should think about that when they criticize Stark for calling Bush out.

Bush is not the King. Bush is not the CEO. Bush isn't even the janitor.

He's a PRETENDER.

Even were he the elected President, the President is not above criticism at any time, and neither is Pelosi.

They are just people who WORK FOR US. Perhaps they need a reminder?

3. Yes. I second the motion:
"Let's make Nancy sorry she ever took Impeachment off the table and make her say it."

5. The only people
that are in a position to do that are the folks voting in her district, a serious Democratic challenger might just be the thing to get her attention.

7. That's not true, we can call our congressmen and women and let
them know we Pelosi censured.

You're not.

14. This is what you want to do after you reached your tipping point?
Play dueling censures?

How about doing something that'll do something?

21. I've done something for six damn years now, time and money

You might try to not be so judgemental.

22. So what will censure do?
And doing something constructive now would include campaigning for her opponent, even if she isn't a Dem. If you're that dissatisfied, vote for Sheehan. Or vote for another Dem you think could beat Pelosi. Do SOMETHING. Calling for her censure isn't doing anything but shaking the official finger at her. BFD.

10. Oh so now I should be tombstoned, because I want to have
democratic policies enforced?

Get real, I am a democrat through and through, always have been and always will be, but when they fuck up its up to us to let them know about it.

That's how it works, ya see.

26. I do. I regularly call Republicans and ask them...
...to stop their war and stop obstructing Congress.

Are you calling Republicans? They are the ones sheltering Bush's policies.

20. Right! You call Boehner and I'll call Hastert and see what we can work up!
If we get all 200 Republicans to vote against her, we only need to peel off 15 or so "blue dogs" (easily doable!)and your dream can come true.
