I hope most Americans are FINALLY getting to where I have been for 3 yrs.

MAD AS HELL!

Oh, anyone who doesnt GLADLY SUPPORT

VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO

is on the side of the lawless traitor criminals.

I realize this looks like I am blaming the Democrats, no I am not they and we are just in a no-win situation when an entire political party admits openly the law and constitution means absolutely nothing to them

Because of the Speech and Debate Clause, nobody's getting arrested. onenote Oct 2019 #2

What is the Speech and Debate Clause? smirkymonkey Oct 2019 #4

US Constitutution Article I, Section 6. onenote Oct 2019 #7

So if the Democrats did the same thing in the future, they would be treated the same way? smirkymonkey Oct 2019 #22

Would you want it to be interpreted to allow a GOP majority to order the arrest of Democrats? onenote Oct 2019 #23

If Democrats broke the law, I would expect them to be arrested, but Democrats don't pull smirkymonkey Oct 2019 #25

Agreed. Putting aside legalistic gymnastics as used by some, MarcA Oct 2019 #28

Maybe you've forgotten about the sit-in by Democrats in 2016 onenote Oct 2019 #29

Memories around here are short jberryhill Oct 2019 #33

I don't think these two situations are exactly comparable. smirkymonkey Oct 2019 #37

No two things are exactly comparable jberryhill Oct 2019 #38

Of course they weren't. Kingofalldems Oct 2019 #40

Just isn't going to happen. onenote Oct 2019 #31

O.K. But what will a censure actually accomplish with regards to MarcA Oct 2019 #34

Yep, memories are short around these parts jberryhill Oct 2019 #35

No comparison at all. Kingofalldems Oct 2019 #41

I'm sorry that the Democratic leadership did not take the bait and over-react as some here advocate jberryhill Oct 2019 #43

I wonder if they would have pulled this crap if Pelosi wasn't dewsgirl Oct 2019 #9

Hadnt thought of that. Eliot Rosewater Oct 2019 #10

Very true. dewsgirl Oct 2019 #11

They handled this right StarfishSaver Oct 2019 #12

It is all part of the bigger picture. We play fair, they dont. They have literally ignored ALL law Eliot Rosewater Oct 2019 #18

They can be removed. Guards can be posted to restrain them from entering. MarcA Oct 2019 #14

but they do not have the right to intimidate witnesses... Peacetrain Oct 2019 #17

Hmm maybe so. triron Oct 2019 #21
