1. She didn't attack him, she answered a obviously offensive question.

Luke is a little snot who only has his job because of who his father was. Would he have ever asked one of the male congressional members if they are too old for a leadership role? I think not.

[DURHAM D]

2. She did not attack the little punk, she schooled him.

Fuck that little sexist jerk.

[PearliePoo2]

6. Correct..not an attack, school was in session.

I hope young Luke was paying attention in class!

[Schema Thing]

3. I think I'm a pretty smart guy, but I somehow missed the "attack" part of this reply?

[PearliePoo2]

4. Well, I hope young Master Luke is smarting and licking his wounds

after that delicious, resounding smack-down from Ms. Pelosi and the entire group.
He's (IMO) a rather undeserving, no-talent that would never be in attendance at any "presser" if his last name wasn't Russert.
(edit for spelling)

5. Luke Russert is immature

and very undeserving of his job.

[madrchsod]

12. nah...he`s a smart ass prick

[reformist2]

7. "Although it's quite offensive, but you don't realize that I guess." Love the response!

[pipewrench]

8. That was not an attack

But that was offensive to many women.

[DURHAM D]

9. Are you saying that Pelosi's response was offensive?

[PearliePoo2]

10. Pelosi: "Next...next...oh you always ask that question EXCEPT...

to Mitch McConnell".
Very nice Nancy.
(now make note to self never to call on the sexist, ageist, wanna-be, punk again)

[SCVDem]

11. Lil Luke has never heard

of age discrimination it seems.

Being older is tough enough without these little punks putting us out early.

Some of the male members have shirts older than Russert. Ask them if they are too old.

The twitter mentality shines through. Think it, put it out, apologize later.

[Ineeda]

13. If MSNBC tolerates the many gaffes of this tatertot

and doesn't fire him, they should, at the very least, take away his platform. Perhaps copy boy would suit him (or whatever the equivalent is in the TV world) until he actually EARNS his stripes. He's an arrogant, entitled prig, IMO.

[madrchsod]

14. well lukie...the boss isn`t too old is he.

[Mc Mike]

15. Gee Luke, maybe the Dems should adopt the repugs'

'winning' "Young Guns" approach? Dim wit.

[calimary]

16. Lucky Sperm Club. That's the only reason he's covering Capitol Hill for NBC News when he's

barely at the point of needing to shave regularly.

Sounds like the pipsqueak had it coming. GOOD! He should go to Topeka or Temecula or someplace and do a few years covering local news before he steps up the the network level. I guess his only apprenticeship has been sitting at his father's knee.

Watching luke russert PISSES ME OFF! I can think of DOZENS of my own colleagues who've been toiling in the back of the vineyard for years, building sources, credibility, expertise, who would, on their worst days, be better than he is. And some of them are out of work. FAR more deserving than this little princeling. If he can ever get past his own "birthright complex" or sense of entitlement based on who his father was, MAYBE he might develop into something. But I really resent seeing a pipsqueak like him getting one of those big jobs - that you ordinarily would have to spend years building toward, in your own career - when there are others out there who are FAR more experienced, competent, and DESERVING.

[SemperEadem]

17. so the War on Women continues

Pelosi is right: I seriously doubt that russert has the balls to say some shit like that to Mitch McConnell or any of those grey beards in his party.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

18. Holy shit, will NBC just fire this turd now?

Or better yet, make sure he's on a very rickety dock when the next storm hits. Piece of rat shit. Typical Boston College grad.

[MissMarple]

19. I think we are all agreed that it was a civil answer to an impertinent question.

It may have embarrassed little Luke, and he should be embarrassed. They laughed at him.

[amb123]

20. Luke Russert, like all CONservatives, are tiny-brained little insects

And the Ladies STOMPED ON HIM!

[elbloggoZY27]

21. Nancy Pelosi

Age is not a factor but competence and knowledge is. So grand that the President was reelected and questions like age are irrelevant & so is sex.

[MissNostalgia]

22. Nepotism always fails, FIRE Luke

I hate nepotism

[hrmjustin]

24. Welcome to du!

27. Perhaps what Nancy should of asked is why...

Tim never moved over and let some young talent in. In fact, he's still holding the spot for his little brat in a state of unrepentant nepotism.
