Once upon a time, a Republican member of Congress shouted "you lie" during the SOTU and was censured

[question everything]

Unlike other fairly tale, this has not ended with "happily ever after."

[no_hypocrisy]

1. And at another SOTU address, Associate Justice Samuel Alito

mouthed "Not true".

2. MTG should be censured.

"Once upon a time" conservatives claimed to stand for tradition. That sure went flying out the window.
It is the Democrats that maintain tradition and decorum, as well as out democracy.

3. MTG has McCarthy's nuts in the palm of her hand.

I am certain in her pitbull manner, she has reminded him WHO the actual Speaker is. Talk about House behavior standards going down the tubes in just a few short years.

MTG needs to be muzzled. Though it will not happen.

4. Another DUer called her Shrieker

which is perfect

[Lars39]

5. Shrieker of the House, Leader of the Zoo...

sung to Master of the House”. I wish someone clever would finish the lyrics.

6. How did this crass, common uncultured rube become...

…so powerful after a single term in the House, during which she basically got paid to do nothing as she was removed from her committee assignments?

7. That was before Trump.

At least 10 House Democrats are boycotting President Trump’s State of the Union address on Tuesday night on the eve of the expected Senate vote to acquit him in his impeachment trial.

We can’t really complain..

[bluesbassman]

8. I've seen this attempt at equivalence a few other times today.

Do you really want to compare ANY Trump public utterances, much less that hot mess of a SOTU "speech" he gave, and Nancy P's rather measured response to it, or ten Democrats boycotting an impeached criminal, with the hooliganism displayed by the GOP?

I'm not "complaining" about these boorish louts, I'm disgusted by them. They are agents of chaos and obstruction, nothing more. They abuse the position afforded them by the Constitution and dare to call themselves "patriots". They stand for nothing that will improve the lives of average Americans, seek glory and power above all else, and they're wasting time and resources while producing nothing of value.

Nancy Pelosi and her peers have served this Nation and all of it's citizens for decades. Their contributions will be remembered and many of those contributions will continue to serve the common good for years to come. Green, Gaetz, Boebert, Jordan, McCarthy and their ilk? They will be nothing but disturbing footnotes in the annuls of history. They will accomplish nothing.

10. Bravo, I've seen this we did it too crap

regarding Madam Speaker and it's comparing apples and hot lava rocks. Complete malarkey.

[W_HAMILTON]

9. Yes, fuck, we can.

Stop trying to equivocate personally interrupting a president while he is giving his speech before a Joint Session of Congress with what Pelosi did (lol) or, even more of a reach, boycotting the entire event (LOL).

Hell, even applause vs. boos/jeers is fine and has been tradition. Interrupting the president giving his speech by outright screaming at him like you are in some fucking debate hall or something is not, no matter how much right-wingers, the """both sides""" media, or you want to try to make it seem otherwise.

[niyad]

11. BS. Not going to an event is nowhere near the same as being a rude, no class

asshole AT the event. And Speaker Emerita Pelosi did NOTHING, not even a smirk, during that insane word salad that was the TRAITOR**.

This kind of bothsiderism on this board is disheartening, to say the least.

[FakeNoose]

12. 'Memba this? The fake "mommy" clap

It's a classic! This is the closest she ever got to actually trolling Chump.

[niyad]

13. And clueless ego donnie dimwit never caught on.
