As the male ousts the female from the Speaker's chair....

... he chivalrously provides all the ladies of the House with  very important seats.

Toilets.

But I'm sure Nancy Pelosi has her own private bathroom and wouldn't stoop (or squat) to use some shared bathroom.

It's the Botox, her bladder is locked up tigher than a drum!

"But I'm sure Nancy Pelosi has her own private bathroom"

Just so she no longer has her own private plane. Oh, the humanity!

So is Boehner going to be flying around in Pelosi's fancy jet? We know how that got you and Right all lathered up. Don't you want to know?

Original Mike said...

She'll have to be scanned and groped with the rest of us proles.

Original Mike said...

garage: He's already said he won't be using her plane (though he is a politician, so we'll have to wait and see).

Pelosi Galore[stolen from Dennis Miller] doesn't shit, that's one reason she's full of it.

While we're at it, let's make all Congressional toilets pay toilets. National debt problem solved!

To be fair, she did soil the seat we gave her in '07.

If the new construction work is being partly done by CIA electricians, then Hillary will be hearing all of the latest talk as soon as they have flushed.

We don't want to be seen as pussies. All congressional restrooms should have urinals, and the ones that go to the floor.

Hey, Pelosi Galore wouldn't squat to use a shared jet liner.

(Thank you. I'm here all week...)

No no no. If unisex bathrooms are good for the military (repeal of DADT) then they are good enough for our congress-critters.

What a swell guy...and I bet he doesn't want any publicity b/c of it.

They should've asked Nancy to pray on it.

MadisonMan said...

Why not just have stalls with floor to ceiling walls and doors, and no urinals?

Men and women can use the same facilities.

So why did ex-Speaker Denny Hastert hate women?

Nancy got enough flak for spending money -- the GOPsters would have had a field day with the expense of any "porcelain palace" she might have requested. Tough it out, be a (wo)man.


But I'm sure Nancy Pelosi has her own private bathroom and wouldn't stoop (or squat) to use some shared bathroom.

Lazy thinking, sloppy thinking, negative halo effect fallacy, tsk tsk. Where would this hypothetical private bathroom be? Next to her office in the Cannon Office Building? A long hike from the House chambers.

True. His office did contact Julie Hirschfeld Davis, who happens to work for the Associated Press, but I'm sure they were just chewing the fat when the bathroom subject came up in the conversation.

I don't recall the GOP making a big deal about the nursing mothers' room that Pelosi did have installed in the House, something that has been mentioned in the more lengthly versions of the same AP article.

garage mahal:

It's already been well-reported that Boehner, who has previously flown commercial, says he's going to continue to do so.

Ah well, I suppose that when you don't have good arguments, pound the table.

the nursing mothers' room that Pelosi did have installed in the House

Are there congresswomen suckling their children? Because at 70, Pelosi sure isn't. Although I could be wrong, the lactation room is not a benefit for Members of Congress.

Boehner, who has previously flown commercial, says he's going to continue to do so.

In this post-9/11 world, the phalanx of Secret Servicemen who would protect the person third in line for the Presidency would disrupt air travel for many Ohioans. I bet he abandons this policy as unworkable.

She's been using the floor of congress as her toilet and the American people to wipe for quite some time.

Nancy Pelosi doesn't piss.

She oozes.

Nancy Pelosi squatting.

Thank you, Althouse, for delaying my dinner.

Why not just have stalls with floor to ceiling walls and doors, and no urinals?
Male barracks heads/latrines do not have stalls, period.

My college went co-ed in the 70's. Allegedly, one girl was discovered washing her hair in a urinal.
