Appreciation thread for Chairman Jerry Nadler

He has led the Judiciary Committee with dignity and grace in the face of endless Republican antics. We are fortunate to have him presiding over this very serious process and I’m grateful for his excellent leadership

Sometimes history sees to it the right man, at the right time, is there to see a delicate task through.

Thank you, sir.

The R's had their plan and trap all set. Nadler did a rope-a-dope all evening. Then he yanked the rug out from under them and made Collins, especially, look like a political novice.

I remember when Collins was the Chair and Nadler would tie him up in knots with obscure procedural moves.

You have all of my respect. Your endless patience was inspiring. I would have been too tempted to belt CooCoo Collins in the mouth for his constant interruptions, foolish points of order and needless knuckle-dragging theatrics.

You done good...

I particularly loved your deferring the vote on the Articles until today. You really stuck to Collins et al!

He rose to the challenge as few could. I developed a respect for the guy as I saw him work.

I'm not sure I could have withstood the temptation.

The Chairman has iron.

that calling for the recess was outstanding and it took heap big masculine gender parts.

Thanks and keep up the good work.

to have him representing our interests and the interests of our country. There are so many outstanding Democrats, it makes very proud. Jerry Nadler's decorum and adherence to process is a wonderful example of Democracy in action. I am a very proud Democrat, in no small part, due to our representatives such as Jerry Nadler, Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff.
