I can't recall another speaker whose weirdo husband hired a weirdo to pound him on the head with a hammer.
There may have been several, but I can't think of one.

Can anybody name another Speaker in recent memory, who has been more divisive, engaged in more political blackmail or who has ridden roughshod more over the minority than Pelosi?

Can we agree that she was the worst in 100 weeks?

I'm with Mik - where's the justification? I realize she's been the boogeyman of the right since Hilary was out of the picture, but how different has she been than other recent speakers?

I thought it was quite inappropriate for her to tear up Trump's speech and make stink faces while he gave it.

Well, not all politicians can be as classy and unifying as Teh Donald.
Seems to me like there’s a double standard here. If Pelosi is so awful, what does that say about Trump?

That’s just locker room nonsense. Nothing like tearing up a speech.

He might have raped children in his free time but made the legislation run on time. Is that what you’re suggesting?

Somebody once said take no notice of what politicians say, but focus on what they do. Presumably we’re only focusing on what they do at work.

Oh no, not by any means.
I suppose my comment came off as "other than that, Mrs. Lincoln..."
As a politician, was he capapble?

Stink faces are never appropriate.

I don't think Donald has ever been Speaker.

@jon-nyc I was going to comment on (as you called him) Cardinal Hastert's sexual...indiscretions?
That alone makes him a horrible person.
But does it make him one of the worst speakers?
