The main reason she’s controversial at all is because the gop branding machine has apparently been working in the minds of some people with their “party of Pelosi values” bullshit. So that means we should ditch her so we can stop that line of attack? That would be playing right into their hands. That’s what they want. And if that’s what they want, then the opposite must be good. And whoever we replace her with will get the same branding with full propaganda push on faux news.

Do you see republicans clawing for Mcturtle’s destruction? Fuck no, they support their own.

We need to have the guts to do the same. Fight god dammit.

1. The main reason Pelosi is a RW boogie man is that she's female

It’s a PR campaign by the repugnant goons appealing to the sexist/racist repugnant base.

A male Democratic Speaker would be attacked, but it wouldn’t be used as a smear against other candidates.

The hate comes from sexism.

3. Agree. And on a related topic, the boys on Morning Joe all said that it is time for Hillary Clinton

and her husband to go home and stay out of politics (in response to her comments on European immigration). Geist, Barnicle, Deutsch.

Outrageous. She WON the popular vote despite voter suppression, Comey, Russian interference, etc. Where do they get off advising anyone? And when was the last time that they suggested that Kerry, Gore, Dean or any other man get out of politics?

In addition to those three needing some serious training regarding sexism, that show badly needs more gender balance.

Over the weekend. Elijah Cummings officiated.

10. Yes, but what does that have to do with my post? Nt

11. Nothing.

It was just a comment.

13. OK. Thx. Nt

7. You left out the part about Pelosi being a successful woman...

Highly successful. Very strong.

[YessirAtsaFact]

8. A highly successful man wouldn't get as much flack

But I do agree with your point. A highly successful woman is even scarier to privileged white males than a less successful woman would be.

16. She is a female and she is very effective at her job. That scares the shit out of the right. nt

2. There is constant

negativity towards anyone who is not in compliance with GOP's effed up thought process. If you disagree with the GOP's effed up method of pure and unfiltered fear and hatred than you are the enemy. Screw the United States of America and her people, it's all about fake religion, fake government, fake judicial systems, propaganda and fake anything to keep their power.

Nancy Pelosi is in the league of anything negative. The GOP portrays her as evil. They portray anyone who's against their effed up method of ruling, stealing, money hungry and power grab as evil.

Cheers to Nancy! Keep up the good work of scaring the shit out of the GOP.

4. agree, but could you find a less sexist way of saying what we need to have?

"we need to have the courage..."
"we need to have the backbone..."
"we need to have the energy..."

etc.

6. Agreed

Fixed it

14. Thank you! Nt

5. Branding Pelosi

I support Nancy Pelosi. She is the best and any Democrat not supporting her isn't a democrat. We need her savviness, smarts, experience and dedication and any elected Rep claiming to be a Democrat better support her.
As for those fake democrats who claim they'll never support her, well they aren't Democrats, but GOP who need to have a real Democrat primary them. They better snap into line.
We will not donate one red cent to their next campaign and will work hard to see them ousted.

12. Pelosi scares them

Just like AOR scares them. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton scare them as well. They go after people whom are strong/effective leaders but what they do is, in addition to vociferously attacking them by whatever means necessary, they try to instigate us to attack them as well via negative branding.

15. They use our desire for open, inclusive government against us.

And too many on the left take the bait.
