Default Pelosi Erases Gingrich's Long-Standing Fairness Rules

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi plans to re-write House rules today to ensure that the Republican minority is unable to have any influence on legislation. Pelosis proposals are so draconian, and will so polarize the Capitol, that any thought President-elect Obama has of bipartisan cooperation will be rendered impossible before he even takes office.

Pelosis rule changes -- which may be voted on today -- will reverse the fairness rules that were written around Newt Gingrichs Contract with America.

Well this should be interesting, heck if she isn't going to allow the other side to introduce anything well they might as well go home. I wonder if this will be the shot that strikes a cord in the American people or those on the right to divide the country even more, this might be far fetched but what wouldn't stop them from convening there own house and senate? Civil War!

This, together with the so-called Fairness doctrine, is yet more proof that with the Democrats, fairness is a knife that cuts only one way.

This, together with the Fairness Doctrine and Senator Reid claiming he can ban anyone from the Senate, is more proof that the Democrats see their authority as absolute. They can't fathom any limits on their powers. Is a military coup too much to ask?

This is only more proof that the Democrats are COMMUNIST by their very nature. Nazi I mean Pelosi will treat Hussein like the school boy he is. What ever we do we must keep Hussein alive otherwise we are in worse trouble than we already are. Imagine Biden (Plugs)at the helm if you think we have things bad now and God forbid something happen to both Hussein and Plugs. As far as Harry "War Bucks" Reid HE MUST GO!! As MUST NAZI I mean Pelosi what a worthless excuse for humanity she is and actually the lot of them are all worthless excuses for humanity.

Meanwhile the true Republicans (not Rhino's) simply need to let the Democrats (COMMUNIST) hang themselves. The best thing that the true Republicans can do is to distance themselves from any piece of legislation that the Communist put forth, then perhaps this will wake up the citizens of what used to be America and the much needed coup will take place.

botox is too stupid to realize that the more garbage she pulls the more likely that is what will happen. it will take that to get them out of control of everything and go back to a two party system.

the more I read about this witch the more I hope that her plane goes down somewhere and she doesn't survive!!!!

Angry Re: Pelosi Erases Gingrich's Long-Standing Fairness Rules

Pelosi is disgusting. How did she get the leadership over many others that is the question. She is by far the most left leaning member in Congress. God help us. I hope Obama puts her in her place but she could be the answer to his prayers by allowing him to set his real agenda. She will not allow the Republicans to even try to cooperate because she feels with these new rules she does not need them. It's full steam ahead for the Democrats now. Hold on to your hat's and your pocket books.
