Pelosi orders removal of portraits of ex-House speakers who served in Confederacy

[Darkwind]

Why celebrate people who actively were working against democracy? Confederates wanted to overthrow the government and form their own nation.

It isn't a celebration. It is an acknowledgment that they served.

They call that "History". We sometimes learn from it.

I guess your would put up a bust or portrait of Benedict Arnold. He served as well.

Did he serve in Congress?

Not the point. Would you put the best or portrait of Benedict Arnold up at West Point?

It is the point. Benedict Arnold's portrait, if one exists, should be in the historical archives of military service to this country. Until he turned traitor, he served with distinction.

Much like John McCain who also turned traitor.

After receiving a rational answer no matter how many times you repeat the same question will not get you a different one. Break the mind-control of your liberal arts education.

Breaking: US Museums chocked full of slave labor contraband, march on US museums and destroy it. All those Roman antiquities, crush, burn, destroy!! It's so easy to expose the left's faux rage. So get to work libs or admit you are phony BS'ers.

Putting up their portrait in a place of honor is celebrating someone.

Theoretically they represented the people that elected them.
Hmm..., I wonder if the portaits/ statues of Jefferson, Adams, and Hamilton will also be removed?

Pelosi orders removal of portraits of ex-House speakers who served in Confederacy

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Thursday ordered the removal of portraits in the Capitol of previous House speakers who served in the Confederacy as part of an effort to "appropriately observe Juneteenth" on Friday.

She has no authority to erase these people from history on her whim. That's it Nancy, you take down four portraits of "men" who just because they happened to live in the south at the time of the Civil War and got caught up in it on the side of their friends and neighbors, don't deserve to be remembered as House Speaker in the chronology of history!

I'm sure that will go a long way in your efforts to "confront and combat bigotry."

Go Nancy!

Lakhota......Nancy doesn't believe what she is doing though. She has been around for a long time. There are many things that tell you about people and power. She has a good size extended family and she stays 3000 miles from them at 80 years of age.

Notwithstanding your absolutely bizarre comment about McCain, I agree that Benedict Arnold’s bust and portrait should be in basement archives along with the busts and portraits of traitors to the Union gathering dust and cob webs. Not in places that honor them.

No liar, they withdrew from a government they did not like. Does your sorry ape hide ever stop lying?

Go Nancy!

There's going to be a lot of blank walls when all those Democrats are removed by order of Nancy.....

McCain proved himself to be as treasonous as Arnold.

However, regardless of that; Shall we now start taking down portraits of Obama, Clinton, Pelosi, O'Neill, and of course the most famous racist of them all, Byrd?

Nothing like the Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA Democrat Leftists revising history. Then again it's consistent with how Commies do that all the time......

Next year, the new Speaker will order the removal of all portraits of Democrats, seeing as they are essentially the modern Confederacy. Just spelled differently.

I don't really care what political party they were in. They served and as such, deserve to hang (The portraits) next to the rest of them.

This is the peop[les house, not Nancy Pelosi's.
