Nancy Pelosi Botches Brian Terry's Name While Addressing Congress on Holder Contempt Charges

June 28th, 2012 4:31 PM

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), while speaking on the House floor opposing the contempt charges of Attorney General Eric Holder, actually botched the name of slain border patrol agent Brian Terry.

As she expressed condolences to his family, Pelosi called him "Brian Tay, Tay, Terry" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

NANCY PELOSI: I think we all also agree, I think we all very, very much agree that we are very sad and seek justice for the family of border patrol agent Brian Tay, Tay, Terry. His loss is a tragedy for all who knew him, for all of us who care about him, and we offer our condolences to his family. So sad.

You would think someone would actually know how to pronounce the name of the person you're expressing condolences for.

Shows how on top of this investigation the Minority Leader is, doesn't it?
