Pelosi: Democrats can't allow 'indecent' Boebert comments to stand
By Mike Lillis - 12/01/21 01:28 PM EST

As Democratic leaders weigh potential punitive action against Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) for her recent Islamophobic remarks, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) suggested Wednesday that one option is off the table: doing nothing.

"These people do not respect the House that they serve in. We have to make sure that the public understands that we do," Pelosi told House Democrats during a closed-door meeting in the basement of the Capitol.

Democratic leaders have been so far cautious in their approach to the uproar over Boebert, who drew widespread criticism in recent days after suggesting to constituents that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), one of three Muslims in Congress, poses a threat of terrorist violence. The publicity surrounding the incident sparked death threats against Omar, a former Somali refugee.


Pelosi and other Democratic leaders quickly issued a statement condemning Boebert's remarks in sharp terms, but they've stopped short of taking the same disciplinary action they applied to Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.), both of whom were stripped of their committee assignments this year for promoting violent rhetoric and imagery against Democratic lawmakers.

Instead, Democrats are pressing House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) to sanction Boebert unilaterally. McCarthy has sought to ease the tensions privately, but has not publicly condemned her bigoted remarks.

The party of Bill Clinton, the squad, and the likes of Maxine Waters is in no position to dictate to others what’s indecent

Do you see what apologizing for nothing gets you, Lauren?  Think how things would have been different if you had just told the Rats to pound sand.

Great point!  I agree.   888high58888

She told the truth.  What is so offensive?  Muslims believe in JIHAD.  They are commanded to do it!

 First item in SHARIA LAW.   We just don't know, who, will get the spark.  There is an M.O.

Omar is a muslim.  What was so offensive?  34 commands in SHARIA LAW.  # 1. JIHAD.
-----------------------------------------------
Imam Feisal Abdel Rauf claims that the U.S. constitution is Sharia compliant. Now let us examine below a few laws of Sharia to see how truthful Imam Rauf is:

1- Jihad, defined as “to war against non-Muslims to establish the religion,” is the duty of every Muslim and Muslim head of state (Caliph). Muslim Caliphs who refuse jihad are in violation of Sharia and unfit to rule.


2- A Caliph can hold office through seizure of power meaning through force.


3- A Caliph is exempt from being charged with serious crimes such as murder, adultery, robbery, theft, drinking and in some cases of rape.

4- A percentage of Zakat (charity money) must go towards jihad.

So where is the anti Muslim islamaphobic insult? Omar didn't have on a backpack so it was a true statement. She could have called Omar a lying hypocritical terrorist and she would have been truthful again.

I thought it was funny. Unfortunately, some people have NO sense of humor.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

If you want respect, be respectful of the country and opinions different than your own.

Seems this is a new concept to dems.

She needs to take a page out of Matt Walsh's book. One fine example:

This tweet has gotten a very angry response and many people have told me that they find it offensive and hurtful. Upon further reflection I just want to say that if a basic observation like this offends you, you’re the problem. I certainly do not remotely apologize.
