On Day Two, Tlaib's Colleagues Are Already Furious With Her

Rep. Rashida Tlaib's (D-MI) had not even clocked in a full 24 hours as a congresswoman before making enemies in Washington, including several in her own party. On Thursday night, hours after being sworn in to the 116th Congress, Tlaib grabbed a microphone and pledged to impeach President Trump, whom she referred to as a "mother f***er."
Veterans Democrats in the House noted how...unhelpful her little speech was.
"You can't accomplish very much of anything unless you have civility and show respect for your colleagues," Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) said. "Those kind of comments do not take us in the right direction."
Cummings, who takes over as new chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, added that Tlaib's comments were "inappropriate."
"We need to be patient," he said, whatever that means.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) had some of the same complaints.

Do the old hands have what it takes to integrate this new crowd?
-
It is because they know that she hates the last century Old Democrats as much as she hates Trump. For all these new young Democrats, it is a very small step to go from F**k Trump! to F**k Pelosi/Schumer/Cummings! That little anti-gun kid and even the dancing Congresswoman have both said this already. The Old Guard Dems are facing a real actual youth mutiny.

And just as this Democratic party is taking an unwelcome turn to the left, Republicans should make a u turn right. Is a perfect time to set the party apart from this lunacy. Conservative party now!

They have stitched a political party out of classless 'diversity' and it looks like they have created a monster.
The Frankenparty...

Unfortunately, it the past is any guide, the GOP will veer Left in pursuit of the "moderates" who are by now rabid left-wingers.
which leaves Conservatives as 'homeless' as ever, politically.

I disagree. This Muslim woman only won because she ran unopposed. People are tired of politics. Our government is self serving and corrupt. With the right candidates I think we can turn it around. We need sanity.

Have never spoken to him except thru texts.
And it's only to let me know what he thinks of the President and people who voted for him. :laugh:

Sounds like he is in good health! Thanks for letting me know.

Must have been a very poignant and short dialog.

Fake deacon. Fake conservative. Confessed Hillary voter.
Can't get much lower.

Have to get past that, IMO. There's a lot more there. Take Donald Trump out of the equation and we're more alike.
But it is hard to argue with you on 'conservatism'.

Yep, especially since most that claim to be conservative will vote for anyone on the ticket without a "D" beside their name. It makes conservatives unworthy of even persuading. Why bother, if conservatives are too simple minded to understand that if they don't stand for something, neither will their politicians.

aw...let her talk. The more she rambles it lowers the standards of the whole leftist mussie Dem party and the lunacy of san fran nan.

I know Democrat Taqqiya when I see it, and this is it. The Democrats love the brashness of the newbies, at least until the polls start biting them in their rears. Flyover country is generally appalled by such coarseness, and I expect the American people as a whole don't want to see Trump impeached. The memories of Clinton's impeachment come to mind, and how little was accomplished during that period.

The Democrats embrace their bomb throwers, and use them to make their ordinarily ridiculous demands seem more 'reasonable'.
Unfortunately, the GOP throws its Constitutionalists and Originalists (who once weres simply considered "conservatives") under the bus and proceeds to negotiate from a position of weakness, instead of using them to make their (starting) position seem less extreme (which it isn't, unless you're a Leftist). This is the formula for sliding the nation leftward for 50 years, and it has been adhered to religiously.
