    Damnit Nancy!  Why!?!?
    It was a “setup.”

    So I guess we’re supposed to believe that the business owner instructed Madame Speaker that she could only get her (also noncompliant) indoor haircut if she showed up to the salon without a mask. 

    Pelosi wants an apology from the salon owner. 

    “Tambourines and elephants are playin’ in the band.” :lol:
    The owner who “set her up” is now receiving death threats. 
    Ridiculous. And I honestly don’t get the whole setup excuse. 
    1) she tries to schedule an appointment with her at home hair stylist
    2) at home hair stylist isn't available. said hair stylist recommends her old salon. 
    3) nancy contacts salon, they say "sure, come on down, we're allowed one person indoors"
    4) she wears a mask, apparently pulling it down briefly when walking from one room to the next (not verifiable that she wore it the rest of the time)
    5) salon owner claims she was upset that nancy was allowed and no one else was. um, take responsibility for your establishment. 
    6) apparently the new "outdoor" rule came into effect that same day (correct me if I'm wrong)
    7) salon owner was so upset at her own inability to run her own business properly, she sent secret footage to fox news. 

    a setup is certainly plausible in my mind. 
    Not sure I buy it. And really, how tough is it to wash and dry your own damn hair?
    it's not. but people go to the salon to get their hair cut or styled. that's not weird.

  • From what I understand, the salon owner leases the chairs to anyone who needs a place to cut/style hair and that Nabbling Nabob Nancy brought her own hair stylist to use the salon, something the salon owner had been allowing since April. If I were an elected official, I'd put my own stylist/barber shop chair and sink in my house. People put dog washing rooms in their houses now for jiminy crinkets. Too funny the deplorables are all up in arms and yet Sturgis barely gets a mention. Oh the humanity, as someone said.

    Well shit, if I had a sink and chair setup...think of the possibilities! Poor me has had to cut and color her own mop for the past six months 😢

    (My hair guy has offered to come to my home. Cut only; I can’t work goddamn miracles.)

    And fuck Sturgidiots.

    My issue is that she doesn’t own up to said fuckup.

    For me, this has nothing to do with politics. It has to do with hypocrisy and deflection. That does nothing to earn my respect, no matter what party letter follows your name.

    yeah, i think the whole "setup" response is quite strange. i disagree with the hypocrisy. i don't think she intended to "do as i say, not as i do", but i do agree with the deflection part of it. she could have easily said "yes, I am human, and I made a mistake; i still urge you all to wear your masks and be aware of the changing landscape of this pandemic, and i will do my best to do the same".

    The owner who “set her up” is now receiving death threats. 
    Ridiculous. And I honestly don’t get the whole setup excuse. 
    1) she tries to schedule an appointment with her at home hair stylist
    2) at home hair stylist isn't available. said hair stylist recommends her old salon. 
    3) nancy contacts salon, they say "sure, come on down, we're allowed one person indoors"
    4) she wears a mask, apparently pulling it down briefly when walking from one room to the next (not verifiable that she wore it the rest of the time)
    5) salon owner claims she was upset that nancy was allowed and no one else was. um, take responsibility for your establishment. 
    6) apparently the new "outdoor" rule came into effect that same day (correct me if I'm wrong)
    7) salon owner was so upset at her own inability to run her own business properly, she sent secret footage to fox news. 

    a setup is certainly plausible in my mind. 
    You left off #8:

    8. You're Speaker of The House, know the regulations and abide by them.
    i agree. she fucked up. it's just amazing, though, the shit the right gets their feathers ruffled over. trump can obstruct justice and cozy up to dictators. no fucking problem. pelosi gets her hair done inside. HOLY FUCKING HELL THE LEFT IS FULL OF HYPOCRITES. 
    I have no feathers. And I don’t generalize.

    My issue is that she doesn’t own up to said fuckup.

    For me, this has nothing to do with politics. It has to do with hypocrisy and deflection. That does nothing to earn my respect, no matter what party letter follows your name. 
    yeah, i think the whole "setup" response is quite strange. i disagree with the hypocrisy. i don't think she intended to "do as i say, not as i do", but i do agree with the deflection part of it. she could have easily said "yes, I am human, and I made a mistake; i still urge you all to wear your masks and be aware of the changing landscape of this pandemic, and i will do my best to do the same". 
    She apologized. Repeatedly, and took responsibility for fucking up.
    That's considered weak nowadays.

    A real leader would resign.

    It was a “setup.”

    So I guess we’re supposed to believe that the business owner instructed Madame Speaker that she could only get her (also noncompliant) indoor haircut if she showed up to the salon without a mask. 

    Pelosi wants an apology from the salon owner. 

    “Tambourines and elephants are playin’ in the band.” :lol:

    well good. i didn't see that. all i saw was the video of her calling it a setup. on cnn.

    I’m kind of sorry that I brought this up now. Although I’m sure someone else probably would have.

    It’s a new day, folks.

    You guys really harp on things for a while, don’t you?

    In the end, most of us will come to a conclusion that fits our own personal perception of the Speaker.

    None of us were there. And I’m not taking the word of Fox News, Nancy Pelosi, her hairstylist, or a jaded small business owner as anything even approaching the truth. 

    Bigger fish to fry. This, to me, reaches the level of mildly amusing tidbit. If it reaches any further for anyone, in my opinion, that person’s priorities are all kinds of fucked up.

    well good. i didn't see that. all i saw was the video of her calling it a setup. on cnn. 
    The clip I saw, and I don't recall where I saw it or what network it was, she apologized for not wearing her mask as she transited rooms, took responsibility for it and apologized but also spoke about how her stylist made the appointment at the salon who claimed the salon said they could do it, one customer at a time, etc. She should have known better, blah, blah, blah. The WaPo is reporting that the salon owner won't comment for their reporting. Weak. You throw a bomb and don't want to talk about it after? Non-story, except for deplorables, who view it as more malfeasance of the Deep State. Meanwhile, Team Trump Treason is constantly seen without a mask and toured a medical mask manufacturing facility without wearing one. Anyone remember the outrage? Sure you do.

    politics is always about the minutiae, for better or worse. 

    not sure the point of shaming people for talking about a topic that is in the news, especially when it's relevant to the thread. but ok.

    Not shaming. Just pointing out differences between some folks here and myself.

    And I'm far from an exemplary human being.

    Edit: I even made sure to include what should be the unnecessary "to me" and "in my opinion."

    And my opinion should matter to you about as much as yours matters to me -- that is, not at all.
