GOP Members Shout Down Women Members of Congress
Edited on Sun Nov-08-09 01:34 AM by CreekDog

"The Democratic Women’s Caucus had a series of speakers lined up to talk in favor of the health care bill, and Republicans decided to shut them up by talking over them, endlessly interrupting with spurious parliamentary inquiries:

It’s bizarre behavior. I’m not one to put a ton of stock in the idea that civility is the be-all and end-all of politics, but this kind of thing is really nuts and I think only serves to underscore how hollow complains of insufficient bipartisanship are."

Republicans finally figured out that they had to have women on their side object rather than men in order to not sound like complete and total jackasses, rather than just ordinary ones. :eyes:

I liked how the women just got up there and spoke over the complete immature babies.
