Pelosi serves at the Democrats pleasure

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is tired of being asked when she’ll step aside as Democratic leader, suggesting sexism is at play with such queries.

“When was the day that any of you said to Mitch McConnell when they lost the Senate three times in a row … ‘Aren’t you getting a little old, Mitch? Shouldn’t you step aside?’ ” Pelosi said Thursday to reporters at her weekly briefing. “It is just interesting as a woman how many times that question is asked of a woman and how many times that question is never asked of Mitch McConnell.”

Pelosi, the first woman to serve as House speaker when Democrats were in charge, is expected to once again be chosen as minority leader when her party holds leadership elections next week. She faces no opposition for the post. McConnell was officially chosen Senate majority leader Thursday by the GOP conference, by virtue of the Republican election victories last week. She is 74 years old; he is 72.

Pelosi told reporters that she serves at the pleasure of House Democrats. “I’m here as long as my members want me to be here, as long as there’s a reason to be here,” the California Democrat said. “I’m not here on a schedule.”

It’s not the first time Pelosi has been asked the question about her tenure in House leadership. She criticized NBC’s Luke Russert in 2012 when he specifically asked whether, by remaining in leadership, she prevents Democrats from having “younger leadership.” He noted that Pelosi, Minority Whip Steny Hoyer and Assistant Democratic leader James Clyburn are all in their 70s.

We also called Cook County Sheriff’s Department and they gave us the no comment line.

Senator Durbin was not available for comments.

Senator Richard Durbin Facebook page deleted a true statement

This was emailed to us and I think it is important for the Illinois people to know.

To whom it may concern,
I am a fan of yours and felt I could come to you with my problem.  I was on Senator Dick Durbin ' s page and posted that I called and wrote him to remove obama by impeachment or I was going to arrest him myself.  Mr . Durbin sent the US Secret Service and the Cook County Sheriff’s police to my job then sent the IRS to my home to audit me. I asked all parties who sent them. The IRS wouldn't say but the Cook County Sheriff’s police stated it was Mr. Durbin.  He felt that I threatened him and Obama.  When I posted this to his page he deleted my comments and removed me from his friends list. Can you help.

Well we did we looked at all 74 comments and not one comment was from our reader. So we left a comment. 

Obama is Forcing the Military to Cover Up Berdahl’s Treason Against Amer

After three and a half months of waiting, Americans still have not received any answers from the Pentagon about whether or not Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl actually abandoned his post and aided the Taliban against Americans, and it looks like Obama is doing everything in his power to once again bury the truth about it, only this time he’s abusing the military to carry out his plan.

Many Americans feel that Bergdahl should be put through a court martial for leaving his post and potentially helping terrorists kill American soldiers, but high ranking Army officials say this will not happen, because, despite the massive evidence that points to Bergdahl being a traitor, taking this course of action will make Obama “look bad.”
To go along with this, the investigation into Bergdahl’s disappearance has been delayed, with no deadline attached, meaning this investigation could go well past the November elections, helping Obama and other Democrats minimize the damage and possibly help stop Republicans from taking the Senate.

According to the New York Post, the delay is due to Maj. Gen. Kenneth Dahl’s, failure to turn in findings from the investigation last month. Dahl’s made a request for an extension, which is now currently without a time limit.

This is outrageous. Once again, just like with Benghazi, the president is trying to cover up the truth in order to put himself and the Democratic Party in a more favorable position come election time.

Much of the evidence that’s been uncovered so far proves that Bergdahl was a traitor who helped the Taliban kill Americans, and what’s worse is the president broke the law to help get him back, freeing dangerous high level terrorists to go back out on the battlefield.

What’s even more sick is that president is using the Army, which he has abused and disrespected on many accounts, to do his dirty work and cover up the fact that he broke the law to bring home a traitor.

There’s no doubt that seeing Obama cave to terrorist demands emboldened ISIS, which is now attempting to use kidnapped American hostages for ransom and other purposes.

President Obama has placed the nation in danger and needs to be held accountable for his actions, along with Bowe Bergdahl.

CTA BUS KILLS DOG ON PURPOSE

This is a picture of the bus that blew a stop sign and struck a dog. The driver had enough time to stop and not to hit the dog. The worst thing about it is the owner of the dog did nothing not even try to stop the bus. Both should be charged with cruelty to animals
