Watch this through to at least the third minute, by which time a Republican has pulled a parliamentary maneuver to stop Weiner and give him a chance to take back his words, and Weiner substitutes his words for, uh, other words. Comity is not reigning in the U.S. House of Representatives on the eve of the bipartisan summit.

(Ezra Klein)

The parliamentary measure is for use of “inappropriate words.”  Only Republicans consider the (hyperbolic) truth inappropriate… “GENERALLY SPEAKING.”

i like it when parliamentary procedure makes the news, illuminating.
