This Is The Thanks The Dems Get For Treating The Blue Dogs With Kid Gloves

[Me.]

Will they ever learn?

“While it might be politically popular among Republicans to bash House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, one Democrat may have crossed a line.

Alabama Rep. Bobby Bright, a Blue Dog Democrat, was asked whether he would vote for Nancy Pelosi for House Speaker at a political event on Saturday. He replied that a vote for House Speaker was a long way off.

Bright "joked that Pelosi might lose her own election, decide not to run for the speaker's job or otherwise not be available," reported the Montgomery Advertiser.

The Advertiser's reporter, Cosby Woodruff, told The Plum Line's Greg Sargent that Bright said, "heck, she might even get sick and die."

According to Woodruff's original report the remark "drew laughter from the crowd."

17. Its not just "OK", It is ENCOURAGED!

The White House and Democratic Party Leadership throws their full campaign support behind these Conservatives during Democratic Primaries, and recruits and bankrolls conservatives to run as "Democrats" for open seats.
