"This Fast and Furious debacle started under the Bush administration," Jackson Lee declared. "And it is been evidenced by various reports that it started under the ATL office in Arizona unbeknownst to leadership in Washington DC, at least leadership that came in under the Obama administration in this instance, Eric Holder."

This idiot woman obviously wasn't told that (With)Holder had already walked back his accusation that Bush administration was involved.
#2
Jackson's position and statements as an elected official are simply a microcosm of a reparations focused sector of society. She and her coharts lash out at anything that may threaten their boodle or privilege.
#11
Jackson-Lee is not an idiot, uneducated, nor crazy. It's easy to dismiss her as just another politician. But without any sense of remorse she preys on the gullible for her own personal gain. Back in the day people of her caliber were simply called a Crooks.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate is charged with solicitation of a minor and his case has been bound over to a grand jury.
Authorities said the alleged incident occurred in May 2011, when a 7-year-old girl riding her bike in front of the Johnson City apartment of Thomas K. Owens was invited inside.
The 36-year-old then allegedly hugged the girl, unzipped his pants, and asked her to perform a sex act. The girl ran home and told her mother, who notified police.
Owens told investigators the girl had been in his apartment. As for the allegation, he stated: "I have a problem with that," but did not elaborate.

Owens should move to Texas and try this again. Should solve at least two immediate problems.

Seems he already had a lot of the prerequisites for working as a member of Congress.
It is a term more commonly associated with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il, but a Labour-run council in North London was forced to apologise today after staff were ordered to refer to its new head as Dear Leader.
The email was sent to all councillors at Camden Council by a junior administration worker.
The worker has been given a dressing down and told that Councillor Sarah Hayward does not need to be eulogised in such a manner, and that plain old Sarah will do.
The member of staff at Camden Council in north London, sent out a tersely-written email to staff after Miss Hayward took over as the new leader of the council last month.
The email, sent on June 12, stated: Dear All - Any correspondence to Councillor Hayward should be addressed to her as 'Dear Leader or 'Leader
Please inform all your staff.
The operation to keep the identity of the sender under wraps has all the hallmarks of an operation Kim Jong II would be proud of.
Cllr Hayward insisted she had no knowledge of the email at the time it was sent - and said she was quite happy being called Sarah.
She said: It was nothing to do with me and I have no idea what prompted it. I am happy to be called plain old Sarah or anything really as long as its not offensive.
I hope people are not treating it seriously. It was a well-intentioned mistake. Im not going into any naming and shaming though.
There is less here than meets the eye. The "Dear" part is the normal salutation in a letter. I cringe every time I write it, and avoid it when I can, but it's the custom.
The "Leader" bit is strange, though, unless it's some sort of Brit thing. What's wrong with "Councillor"?
[Daily Caller] House Minority Leader Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of politicians. Formerly Speaker of the House, but it's not her fault they lost. Really. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace... attacked House Republicans for pursuing contempt of Congress charges against Attorney General Eric Inaction Jackson Holder on Wednesday.
"I could have tossed in the clink Into the paddy wagon wit' yez! Karl Rove on any given day," Pelosi said on Wednesday, The Huffington Post reports. "I'm not kidding. There's a prison here in the Capitol. If we had spotted him in the Capitol, we could have tossed in the clink Into the paddy wagon wit' yez! him."
"Oh, any number" of charges could have been brought against Rove, Pelosi said. "But there were some specific ones for his being in contempt of Congress."
Pelosi also criticized Republicans pushing for justice for Border Patrol agent Brian Terry -- as House oversight committee ranking Democratic member Rep. Elijah Cummings ...Representative-for-life from Maryland, representing half of Baltimore City, which makes his district ultra-safe, and most of Howard County, which is out-populated by the city. Cummings' politix are so liberal they're tedious... has on numerous occasions -- as "just strictly political."
"It's just the irresponsibility of the Republicans," Pelosi said. "We want jobs. Why are they spending this time doing this?"
Pelosi attacked House oversight committee Chairman Darrell Issa too. "'Loose cannon' would sort of be like such a compliment to Darrell Issa," Pelosi said. "'Loose cannon' would be a moderate phrase. This is an bomb. It doesn't serve our country, and it undermines the true purpose of contempt of Congress."

Someone considered, due to self admission, as having compromised her own principles for personal gain; and the name commonly used to describe such a person is?

Pelosi rips Holder contempt charges: 'I could have arrested Karl Rove on any given day'
Yep, COULD have, But DIDN'T, and that's the charge.

So what you are saying is that arresting Holder is ok.
Are they trying to be deliberately vague and baffling to hide the threats, or am I watching a person at a chess board who takes their king, diagonally jumps three of their own pieces, and yells yahtzee!
#6
Love the picture. I am fairly certain that is what her death mask will look like. Comparing Karl Rove, a mere aide, to someone who was appointed to such a powerful office is ludicrous. Like monkeys in the zoo, these people will continue to fling poo at everything that moves in order to prevent the masses from seeing that the emperor has no clothes.

Pelosi always reminds me of the main character's mother in "Brazil" So utterly clueless and ignoring what happens around her.

The dems are in pure panic, reactionary mode. They just say what comes off the top of their head to defend themselves and don't think about what it means.

delusional partisan b*tch. By what powers does she assume she can arrest a political advisor?

Why on "any number" of charges. That's what she says in the article. But you'll notice that she doesn't get specific. All she has are vague allegations that it's all Bush's fault. Damn it, I know the Republicans have screwed up too. That's no excuse.

'I could have arrested Karl Rove on any given day'
Nancy, no one has been arrested. Now go have another drink.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
