In what ABC News is calling “an unusual breach of decorum, even for the divided Congress, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi chased local Rep. Tom Marino across the House floor…”
What most media reports are overlooking is that she not only chased him, she further violated protocol by addressing him directly and without being recognized by the chair.
Although the audio isn’t clear, it would appear from his response that she was accusing him of not being truthful…
…He didn’t back down. ABC News reports:
“Yes it is true,” Marino replied directly to Pelosi, who was House speaker in those years. “I did the research on it. You might want to try it. You might want to try it, Madam Leader. Do the research on it. Do the research. I did it. That’s one thing that you don’t do.”…
…The most offensive aspect of the interchange occurred when Former Speaker Pelosi came back across the aisle wagging her finger at him. During the second incident, according to The Hill, Democrat Charlie Rangle reported that the former Speaker told Mr. Marino “You’re insignificant.”
…revealing what she thinks about the Americans Marino represents…
The complete article, with video and some tweets from Rep. Marino, is at The David Madeira Show.
From the article below:
…What Marino said is, of course, absolutely true, a matter of documented fact, but that’s another thing Democrats are really uncomfortable with these days. Democrat voters aren’t supposed to remember anything that happened last week, let alone what their political leaders said and did in 2009…
…the way Republicans can win the long game is by following Rep. Merino’s lead. Pelosi’s fuses blew for a good reason – she knows her party cannot withstand arguments based on American interest, the rule of law, and an accurate history of the Democrat Congress, which rather pointedly illustrates just how seriously they took “immigration reform” until they saw an opportunity for political profit…

With the Senate gone to recess, a confusing string of announcements and legislative maneuvers is pouring out of the House, as an immigration reform bill is debated. Few other issues so clearly spotlight the absurd theater Congress becomes when the political class is dragged into doing something it really doesn’t want to do, or wants to do something the public strongly opposes.
That’s one of the conflicts few people in Washington are willing to discuss plainly, for obvious reasons. The American people don’t want amnesty for illegal aliens, or huge invasions pouring across their southern border, with the attendant costs and crime. They didn’t think of immigration as a very important issue at all, until Barack Obama deliberately provoked a crisis with his illegal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals amnesty orders. The humanitarian crisis that rolled to the border in response to Obama’s summons is front-page news everywhere, and since the new arrivals are being shipped all over the country at taxpayer expense (including Hawaii!) Presto – suddenly immigration is the top issue in polls, and everyone agrees Something Must Be Done, so the political steamroller is moving through Congress…
It’s a powerful article. RTWT.
