She is awesome!

K&R

Fucking incredible.

Pelosi is bought, sold, and tied up in a bow.

SHe is ready on day one! I didn't know she was pro-life.....but I could live with that as she doesn't seem the type to cram it down others throats. I just can't see her sneaaking arond appointing conservative judges to the SC just to get HER belief set in cement.

This lady got spunk, and she calls it like she sees it. She doesn't seem to hold back any punches. We need more people like her in our government. :thumbsup:

for national office but she is a great person and would have been tremendous on the ticket with Obama.

How does she feel about a young woman who may get pregnant during rape or incest?
Just curious. But I certainly admire anyone who speaks out against this administration.

I prefer anti-choice.

I think it is an important part of tolerance to allow people to determine their own labels. Pro-life people want to call pro-choice folk "pro-abortion"... Pro-choice folk want to call them "anti-choice." Neither manipulation is appropriate in my opinion.

If average people heard this they might actually think...

And you know how dangerous it can be when people think.

...the scoundrels/criminals in Washington want to drain us of any chance for a national health policy, retirement, education and future jobs and more.....

Yes...they do owe back to the pot after all those years. I am close to retiring like many of us "boomers" and she has just made me realize we can retire without compromising our childrens future! Bring on our dignity!

Thank you very much Representative Kapture!!!

Thank you very much Representative Kapture!!!

POW!

I worked with her during the NAFTA debate. She understood what NAFTA would do to this country and the Mexican people. She went to Mexico on her own and met in secrecy with people working in the maquilladoras who took home $15 for a 50-hour workweek (she showed me the paycheck stubs).

She's right-on regarding farm policy.

She's right-on with this bailout plan.

As far as I'm concerned, they should confiscate every penny in the name of the people responsible for this disaster and throw them out on the streets. If they have to scrape bugs off of windshields and sidewalks for their supper, then so be it.

This unfettered greed has gone too far. It's time for paybacks!

I know she is a dem but the pukes got to have at least one.

Oh, I wrote my congressman and asked him to talk to Marcy Kaptur of Toledos 9th district. She presents the American taxpayers concerns quite well. Our congress people need to oversee and regulate this thing before we get taken to the cleaners.

...it might help them make a decision.

That's the correct answer. She's engaging and compelling and lays it out clearly in 5 minutes time. This is an easy email to write to our reps.

Let's not get intimidated!

Hey Repugs, don't get that "Mission Accomplished" banner out again too soon.

K&R!

Watch it several times. This is one mighty righteous, open hearted, clear headed rant. This is the most on-point 5 minute summary I heard/seen to date. Thnx, Wetzelbill, for the link; I'm sending it on.

Agreed on the summary, it's great! :hi:

we need to fight these SOB's ENOUGH.

If I could.

She's right on, awesome!

Thanks for posting this.

Always loved Marcy. Too bad she's not Speaker of the House.

I hope this speech gains as much traction in Congress as it has here.

I LOVE this woman!!! Makes me want to move out of Georgia up to Ohio. :)

I called her Toledo, Ohio office today to let them know how proud I was of her for standing up for all of us & wished more would do the same. I'm not in her state but lived right across the border in Michigan, 9 mile's from Toledo, Ohio. Go Marcy!

Wooooo Hoooooo! I love her!

She makes some excellent points -- but I could never trust a woman who is anti-choice.

:toast:

Amazing to hear a politician make such a bold and understandable speech. That was great! The amount of communication she got in there was greater than one full year of all MSM!

What utter clarity!

-90% Jimmy

Fantastic. A congresscritter who is not bought off. We need a hall of fame for the few that are left

then my voice was taken away by gerrymandering. Now I'm stuck with Bob Latta, a career GOP cheerleader.

Dirty Darth must be fuming and thinking "How can I send a message of 'death' without my fingerprints on it?" Crap that was great!

stance on this bailout bs.

I can't help myself, I'm going to send her a nice note of support and appreciation!

:rofl:

Paulson. Pay attention, we are talking to you. You are not going to get away with it asshole.

I love what she said!!! :applause: :applause: :applause:

She is so on!

and Barney Frank talking to Olberman? Who's idea was that brilliant move?

SHE ROCKED IT.

Marcy, :yourock: :loveya:

The biggest theft in history... right before our eyes. She definitely has a pair.

The economic crisis we are witnessing is a game strategy.

Zugzwang (German for compulsion to move) occurs when a player is forced to make an undesirable move. The player is put at a disadvantage because he would prefer to pass and make no move, but a move has to be made, all of which weaken his position. Situations involving zugzwang occur uncommonly, but when they do occur, it is almost always in the endgame, where there are fewer choices of available moves.

It's now being reported that the Paulson Plan is several months old. The plan was intentionally withheld from Congress until exactly one week before the election recess. It was held back to force the Democrats to make a move under intense time pressure. Think about it! Bush has used disaster after disaster to force concessions and grab power. This is a classic Bush/Cheney tactic and political extortion of the highest order.

When you are in zugzwang, any move you make is bad.

If the Democrats support the plan and win the election, they are left with no money for any social programs and effectively have their hands tied for four years. If they don't support the plan and allow more failures, they risk losing the election.

Marcy Kaptur's two minute speech before Congress needs to be seen by every American voter.

Even though I'm in California. Encouragement to all who stand up to these evil sons of bitches is necessary imho.

...Congressional speech I've ever seen.

She really knows how to lay it down.!!!

and contributed to Henry Gonzalez's investigation into BNL and exposed the oil profiteering. This is leadership. She is so damn sincere you just can't ignore her.

Phenomenol speech.

:kick:

Every American needs to watch this.
