Pelosi: "If they're clueless, get a clue. If they need therapy, do it in private."

Pelosi Condemns Weiner and Filner


House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) condemned her former Democratic colleagues, New York City mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner (D) and San Diego Mayor Bob Filner (D), "who have both come under a firestorm of criticism for their behavior toward women," ABC News reports.

Said Pelosi: "The conduct of some of these people that we're talking about here is reprehensible. It is so disrespectful of women, and what's really stunning about it is they don't even realize it. You know, they don't have a clue."

She added: "If they're clueless, get a clue. If they need therapy, do it in private."

for OBVIOUS reasons. As Speaker, she sent so much shit through, over 300 legislative pieces died in the Senate when the GOP took over the House.

rich men have been like this since rich men first existed. They think they can get away with it. The only difference is now the media reports it, unlike the days of JFK.

I agree. Both of them need to go away. And get serious help. Family help for the Weiners.

And here I thought it would soon be over. Sigh. Can't wait to hear the rethugs wail about how immoral Dems are. Actually, that's pretty funny!
