The Call For Nancy Pelosi To Resign From A Democrat!

Will she? Why, no. Why should she? The Leftinistra NEVER do any wrong-doings…just ask them.

“Nancy Pelosi has persistently violated her duty to exercise her speaker powers in accordance with the Constitution and the current “106th Congress House Rules Manual” (House Document 106-320).

In short, she has fostered what is known as “tyranny by the majority” — and violated House Rules that give her the duty to maintain order, civility, and decorum, and to foster “comity” (a word rarely used these days, meaning “mutual respect”).

The “House Rules Manual” includes Jefferson’s “Manual of Parliamentary Procedures,” originally drafted by the founder of the Democratic Party when, as vice president, he presided over the Senate from 1797 to 1801.

In 1837 the House, provided that the provisions of Jefferson’s Manual should “govern the House in all cases to which they are applicable and in which they are not inconsistent with [subsequently adopted rules].”

Jefferson’s manual, which is still in effect, was a codification of 18th century “common law” and re-affirms that House Rules are “the only weapons by which the minority can defend itself . . . and by a strict adherence to which the weaker party can only be protected from those irregularities and abuses which these forms were intended to check, and which the wantonness of power is but too often apt to suggest to large and successful majorities.”

Currently, Pelosi, who is second in line to the president, often describes herself as a partner in his power — a higher role than the Constitution grants to the vice president, who is first in the line of secession — and whose only official duties are confined to presiding over the Senate.

Pelosi Oversteps the Electorate

In closing the recent debate on the $125 billion Emergency Defense Appropriations bill’s provision to bring our troops home from Iraq next year, Pelosi — purporting to speak for the entire electorate — proclaimed “The American people have lost faith in the president’s conduct of this war . . . The American people see the reality of the war; the president does not.”..”
