Queen Pelosi inventing powers for Speaker position.

[Recliner Pilot 61]

Pelosi claims part of her duties is "to bring the concerns of the American people to foreign leaders?"

 

Where does she get that from? The position has no foreign policy responsibilities, biotch.

 

 

 

Here is the role of the Speaker of The House:

 

The Speaker of the House

 

House Officer, Party Leader, and Representative

 

The Speaker of the House of Representatives is widely viewed as symbolizing the power and authority of the House. The Speaker’s most prominent role is that of presiding officer of the House. In this capacity he is empowered by House rules to administer proceedings on the House floor, including the power to recognize Members on the floor to speak or make motions and the power to appoint Members to conference committees. The Speaker also oversees much of the non-legislative business of the House, such as general control over the Hall of the House and the House side of the Capitol and service as the chairman of the House Office Building Commission. His role as “elect of the elect” in the House also places the Speaker in a highly visible position with the public.

 

The Speaker also serves not only as titular leader of the House but also as leader of the majority party conference. The Speaker is often responsible for airing and defending the majority party’s legislative agenda in the House.

 

The Speaker’s third distinct role is that of an elected Member of the House. Although he is elected as an officer of the House, the Speaker continues to be a Member as well. As such he enjoys the same rights, responsibilities, and privileges of all Representatives. However, he traditionally refrains from debating or voting in most circumstances, and does not sit on any standing committee of the House.

This is an outrage.

 

So she thinks she's part of the Executive branch now? If so, that makes GWB her boss. He should fire her.

Is this the same Pelosi that is responsible for the lowest congressional approval rating ever? She really is magic. I'll concede that the Rupubs will fock a few things up along the way but they get sh!t done, Dems just phuck everything up.

....as predictable as the sun risng in the East. It's Bush's fault.

 

Get a new schtick, it didn't work in '04. I don't think it is gonna play in '08 either.

 

 

ETA: She definitely needs to be "apart of it", she just isn't authorized to be "a part" of it.

 

HTH

you're confusing a power with an ability.

 

Nice try attempting to divert people's attention from the latest absurd, dangerous interpretation of the Constitution by the Vice President and president. Who do you think is dumber--them for coming up with it, you for believing it, or us for trying to make us believe it? Your choice.

Just curious, do you wear your tin foil hat at home or only in public as thats where the real threat from the government run mind manipulation machines are all strategically placed?

Not sure what you're talking about. It just seems that nobody is apart of the executive branch these days.

[Guest Angrier White Male]

Cheney should cut her head off and stick it on the White House gate to send a message to liberal traitors.

No one is a bigger traitor than Cheney. Not only has he betrayed his party, but he has betrayed the country. Not only is Cheney a Traitor but he thinks that the Vice President's office is not part of the Executive Branch, what a dillusional ######. Cheney & Bush should go shack up with their buddy Bandar Bush in Saudia Arabia, OR they could go to Dubai and live with the rest of Cheney's Halliburton buddies.

Most would say you are the dumb one since this thread is about Pelosi and not Bush.

Hey Dummy,

 

We're about PELOSI here, stay on topic!!!

Could Pelosi possibly be any worse at representing the United States?

What Constitution? I thought that was a 'Presidential signing' or whatever it was that they are called?????

[hoytdwow 202]

How is it any different from John McCain going to Iraq, or groups of Senators traveling around meeting with World Leaders?

Lots of congressmen do this. It's not a "power."

[itsjjw 1]

She is horrible. As a Dem and a woman, I am extremely disappointed in her on both counts.

I'm not a fan of her personal style but I haven't seen enough of her in office to have a real strong opinion either way on her job performance. Overall though, I don't see how Pelosi could be any worse at international diplomacy then what we have right now.

They tow the party line.

See, there's the problem right there - she cannot possibly fulfill the duties of her office because she's the wrong gender.

I'm not confusing anything. Pelosi claims foreign policy is part of the Speaker's job, which it clearly isn't. Foreign policy is left to the Executive Branch and the Dept of State.

 

"And why would anyone think it is responsible to restrict the ability of the Speaker of the House to bring the concerns of the American people to foreign leaders? It is part of the Speaker’s job,” said spokesman Nadeam Elshami, a spokesman for Pelosi.

 

Oh, and quit hiding behind Fervid's skirt, Turban. You really should just stay away from this board. You had your ass handed to you on a daily basis and you come back hiding behind your wife's handle only to have it handed to you one more time.

That hasn't stopped you from coming back day after day.

This response was as predictable as the sun rising in the East. To borrow a phrase from another thread: It is ironic coming from one who has yet to hand me my ass, and has his ass handed to him by multiple posters on a daily basis.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Countdown until Snoopy links to something where he claims to make a point and it somehow owned me.

[Recliner Pilot 61]

From Newt Gingrich.

 

Really?

 

Link to Newt flying to a terrorist state, conducting foriegn policy regarding the terrorist state and another country, and getting the whole thing completely bass-ackwards?

So is your complaint based on Pelosi visiting Syria or the one you posted earlier?

My complaint is that she thinks part of the Speaker's job description is foreign policy. Are you that thick?

 

Got that link of Newt conducting foriegn policy against the wishes of those who are supposed to be conducting foriegn policy?

As a matter of fact this time I'm going to let you do the leg work. Do a search on his trips to Israel and China as Speaker Of The House.

 

Hint #1: Israel trip....Secretary Of State Allbright

 

Hint #2: China trip....Taiwan

 

In both cases he professed an agenda different than the administration.

 

Do some reading of your own this time, and get back to me when you realize your comments about Pelosi should be held in no different light than those of Gingrich. She learned from him.

I don't jump through hoops for losers like you. If you have something bring it.

 

ETA: Include the part where he spoke for one foriegn leader (without consent) to another foriegn leader and got every detail totally ass-backward.

Not sure how you want me to do it, but it seems you are waiting for me to hold your hand through this.

 

I don't go that way, and if you are too dense to figure it out on your own I suggest you use that internet thingy to help you out.
