You are saying then that Nancy Pelosi would...
make a better President than Sarah Palin. Are YOU kidding ME???
Nancy Pelosi should have been
thrown out a long time ago. 
Nancy Pelosi
With her election as Speaker, Nancy Pelosi is the first female Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. She is also the first Italian-American and first Californian to serve as Speaker. As Speaker of the House, Pelosi ranks second in the line of presidential succession, following Vice President Joe Biden, which makes her the highest-ranking female politician in United States history.
Nancy Pelosi has 5 kids....
maybe she should have aborted a couple? Geez.
I love Nancy Pelosi!
I think she is doing a wonderful job and hope she continues to do so for years to come. We need more people like Nancy Pelosi in government. In case you are not aware of what she has accomplished during her career, here is a link that you may find very educational.

Nancy Pelosi would cuddle

these types of people in this story below.  We need to secure our borders instead of cuddling illegal aliens. Please read. 


 


Houston Police Officer Richard Salter was shot in the face last week while serving a drug warrant and is in critical condition. Doctors are optimistic because recently Salter, a 27 year vet and the top narcotics officer in Houston, moved two of his fingers. It has now been released that Wilfido Joel Alfaro, 29, a drug smuggler with multiple run-ins with the law in both the US and Mexico, was an illegal alien from El Salvador and had deportation orders. He was arrested multiple times after being ordered to leave the United States, but remained here due to sanctuary city policies.


Mayor Bill White of the sanctuary city of Houston, Texas was quick to point the finger at the federal government rather than taking responsibility for his actions in making Houston a haven for illegal aliens and drug smugglers. It is really sickening that these "leaders" are quick to wash their hands of any responsibility.


It took the Mayor nearly a week to release details that Alfaro - who was killed during the incident - was an illegal alien and that there were multiple times that Alfaro could have been removed from this country. Of course Bill White didn't acknowledge that if Houston actually actively worked with the feds instead of harboring illegal aliens this police officer would not have been shot. Mayor Bill White is a disgrace to the whole of the United States of America.







In an interview I saw on TV tonight (Update: I added the interview video at the end of this entry) Michael Berry of KTRH said that Alfaro's "residence" was basically a $40,000 home that was frequented by gang members and was a known drug haven that was defended by a $50,000 security system fully equipped with multiple cameras, sensors and burglar bars on all the windows. Basically a fortress. It was also revealed that the wife of Alfaro is part of the Avila crime cartel and that her cousin Bruno Avila shot and killed the first female Hispanic cop in Houston last year.


There can be no greater disrespect for law enforcement than knowingly putting them in harms way by allowing a criminal element to reside in your city unchallenged and then being arrogant enough to shrug when one is shot in the face. Mayor White's response to this tragedy is the equivalent of a shrug and every American should be outraged!


They should waterboard Nancy Pelosi. All she does

I just saw Nancy Pelosi in a press conference...
and I was reminded of the interviews I have seen her in...and frankly...Palin does a HECK of a better job than she does....and nobody seems to mind that.  Bear in mind, if, God forbid, something happened to both Pres and VP guess who we get:  NANCY PELOSI.  She is TWO heartbeats away from the Presidency no matter who gets elected.  Good grief, no wonder they send the VP to an undisclosed location and don't let Pres and VP travel together.  lol. 
Obama's Nancy Pelosi Problem

Only 2 excerpts posted here. Read the whole article. Interesting. This may have been posted before and if so, I'm sorry to repeat it.


"...Pelosi has also embraced—even encouraged—her role as Republican enemy No. 1. GOP leaders know better than to go after Obama, whose approval ratings still float around 70 percent. According to Rasmussen, Pelosi is at about 35 percent. "She believes in the president and is willing to take any punches she needs to for him," says a Democratic leadership aide.


But Pelosi isn't taking those shots without getting something in return. In ways that have not always pleased the White House, the Speaker has made it clear to the president that when it comes to House business, he has to go through her. "We are an independent branch of government," she has said repeatedly. Though Pelosi's office denies it, an administration official tells NEWSWEEK that the Speaker asked to be informed whenever the White House contacts a Democratic House member. She also wants to know what the conversation was about...."

Thanks for Nancy Pelosi's e-mail address.
I just sent Nancy Pelosi a note telling her to keep up the good work!
Nancy Pelosi is just plain disgusting. How did she

Nancy Pelosi wouldn't know the truth if it jumped out and bit her....
Nancy is spinning like a top to keep herself out of trouble. Every time she opens her mouth she puts her foot in it again. How many times has she told this story? How many times has it changed?

The fact that this woman is 3rd in line to be president should scare the living daylights out of every single one of us.
Clean Energy Fuels and Nancy Pelosi

My, must be nice. Trying to pass a bill for clean energy and who is going to profit from this? T. Boone Pickens owns Clean Energy Fuels. Nancy and her husband bought #50K-$100K worth of stock in May 2007. No wonder she's pushing it. It means a fortune for her.


Another site states her husband bought the shares alone, but she lives in CA where it's share and share alike.

You are right on, but Nancy Pelosi is so darned MILITANT about her leftist views, (registered Dem he
I think some of those mice are running amok in her head. I used to respect her as a strong female role model in politics, but lately she has become just another aggressive, abrasive, cultish Demobot that I am totally sick of her. The more I get into politics, the more I am convinced we need a new system, this two-party system is antiquated and has become just sorry, elitist clubs, us versus them, as America's heart and soul deteriorates, we have become the new Roman Empire, writing our own end...starting with the wrong stimulus bill in this depression. Shame on them all. Sorry for venting, watching C-Span while I work all week!

Yup....Nancy is one of a kind...
let us sincerely HOPE.
They are quoting Nancy Pulosi from her

and when Ronald Reagan was prez, NANCY was

And Nancy Palosi hand picked more

Wonder if Nancy Grace will make an effort to
to bring this to light and declare how sick and cruel this was. And then question on and on and on why this would have happened. She works for CNN....doubt it.
Obama apolgizes to Nancy Reagan

We all know Obama has a sense of humor.  He's likeable and funny and I enjoy hearing him speak.  But he really should think before he speaks, and not try to make jokes.  Americans are needing issues to be solved, not seeing how funny our President elect is.  This is a very serious and grave time for America and we need some reassurance that he will do what he promised on his campaign trail.  He spoke of Hope through his campaign.  Now we need to see the hope turn into reality.  I had read a lot of articles from both liberal and conservative sources that he doesn't do well with "off the cuff" comments and I think he should stick to the speeches that are written for him. 


Like I said - I like Obama.  He's a good speaker.  But his comment about Nancy Reagan whether you like her or not was indeed making fun of her and unecessary.  He should have just said, "I've talked to the past presidents" and left it at that.  By him having to state they were alive??? The public is not so stup!d that we wouldn't know he didn't mean the "dead" Presidents.  I hope that's not what he thought.  I'm just glad he called her to apologize.


On another note I watched the press conference he gave and I would have like to have heard a little more about what he's going to do once he gets in the white house, who he is picking for his cabinet, and what are the first things he is going to do to help Americans and what promises he gave to us that he will be able to keep and work on first.  Not what kind of dog he is going to get or where his kids go to school.  That does not affect American and I like many of my friends don't care.  We care about issues that affect us.


Yes, Ronnie and Nancy, and George and Laura...
for one another.


Anyone know why Pelosi is so against this?
It seems every other day we're getting new information that needs to be investigated. I don't understand what the problem is with impeachment?

I guess Clinton should have learned his lesson - it was wrong to lie about who you had sex with, you should've just claimed executive privilege instead!
Think what you want about Pelosi
The facts are the facts no matter your opinion of Pelosi.
More like what was up with Pelosi
I'm trying to concentrate on what Mr. Obama was saying and she kept getting up and down and up and down and up and down. I was getting nauseous and dizzy watching her. She detracted from him, and his speech was important, but I couldn't focus because every other second she kept jumping up and clapping her hands and moving around like a child with that stupid grin on her face. I don't know if anyone else noticed it but it was very distracting. DH and I kept saying we wished Biden would have grabbed her arm and told her to sit still. Either that or if Mr. Obama would have turned around and told her to sit still and quit acting like a child. This is one of those times I would have loved to see him turn around and slap her and told her to behave like an adult not a child. I really wanted to listen to him but instead all I could focus on was her. At one point I closed my eyes to focus on what he was saying but I ended up falling asleep. I wish they'd move their chairs off to the side and not right behind the president's podium. I want to look at the one who is speaking, not the two behind him.

What I would have really have loved to hear Mr. Obama say is - Every senator and person in congress starting with myself, the VP, and Pelosi is that everyone is taking a 25% pay cut and we're putting it back into the economy. No, instead they can all grin up there because none of what happens to us affects them.

Anyway...that was off the topic. Just wondered if anyone else noted the Jack-n-the-box behind him.
Pelosi wants another
"stimulus package."  However, since people have gotten wind of this, a lot have been complaining and I think congress has backed off a little on this.  However, it wouldn't surprise me if this happens.  Obama needs to reign her in before she makes a huge stain on his presidency.
Some of Pelosi's new rules sm

This is from an article before the elections.  This sure would be a good start in the right direction. 


The act is a tough document, authored by Nancy Pelosi, the San Francisco-area congresswomen who has been the Democratic House leader since 2002. She will likely be the House Speaker if the Democrats win next Tuesday.


Here are some of the new rules Pelosi wants:


No House member may accept any gift of any value from lobbyists, or any firm or association that hires lobbyists.


No free travel, which means an end to the corporate jet line every Friday at Reagan National Airport.


No free tickets to Redskins games; or no meals of any value, even at a McDonalds; no front-row seats at entertainment venues. No, no and no.


Temptations resisted


To reduce temptations to cheat, Pelosi's bill attacks the usefulness of members to richly endowed lobbyists.


House members will no longer be able to slip in special-interest projects on unrelated legislation. Such measures will no longer be allowed on a bill once negotiations between the Senate and House are complete.


Further, all bills will be made available to the public a full 24 hours before a final vote; presumably this gives watchdog groups a chance to flag any skullduggery.


Under the Pelosi rules, lobbyists will no longer be able to use the House gym (you'd be surprised how much gets negotiated in a sauna). Lobbyists will no longer be allowed onto the House floor or to use the cloakrooms just off the floor, preventing last-minute arm-twisting.


What's more, no member or staffer will be able to negotiate for employment in the public sector without disclosing such contacts to the House Ethics Committee, and within three days of such contact being made.


Finally, all of this will be audited and investigated by a new Office of Public Integrity, and that office reports, directly and only, to the U.S. Attorneys Office.


At this point, you'd be entitled to ask, heard this before, what makes you think it will be accepted by Congress?


Can it work?


No doubt there will be attempts to water down some of these new regulations. In fact, many of these proposals have been in other bills that have been defeated in the recent past.


But several key congressional experts tell CBC News that Pelosi means business and might just be able to push this through. They put it this way.


Pelosi and the congressional Democratic leadership are not likely to get much credit simply for gaining control of the House.


Conventional wisdom already sees such a victory, should it happen, first and foremost as a repudiation of the Bush administration and the Republicans.


This Honest Leadership and Open Government Act is a way of hitting the bricks running. Plus, it could be enormously popular with voters of all persuasions.


They point out Pelosi herself has little national profile and wants quickly to paint some bold strokes. She promises the act will be the first legislation tackled if she leads a new Congress.


Also, Pelosi can and will extract promises of support from those getting leadership positions and plush committee chairmanships and the like.


These new rules will apply in the House as soon as they are passed by simple majority.


The Senate has different rules, but for Republicans and Democrats there, the pressure to comply with the Pelosi standards will be huge.


Pelosi - NO impeachment.
See video link.
Defying Pelosi...
Good for them. It bears out the notion that most of the seats the Democrats gained were taken by the more conservative Democrats...not the far left like Ms. Pelosi and Mr. Murtha. There is a new wind blowing in America...yes indeed.
Pelosi and Palin

Nancy Pelosi has NO charisma but she is both knowledgeabe and competent. Both parties agree. Even the diehard Republlicans in both houses are embarrassed by John McCain's choice of Sarah Palin and many are  now calling for her to be replaced. I genuinely feel badly for her.........she was chosen only to prove he is a "maverick" and did not strictly follow party lines.She was not given much time to prepare before being thrust in the spotlight. This will probably destroy what could have been a bright future for her.


Seriously, did anyone see her interview with Katie Couric? She has to get "her head arount Putin's"??? I was genuinely embarrassed for her.


I also wondered can't she just look in his eyes like George Bushi did and see his soul?


Are you kidding me? I don't like Pelosi
either but to say Palin does a better job is comical. Let's see how SP does after a few days of stress like Pelosi and the senate have been in, and then give an interview. Palin can't give an interview without days notice to rehearse every possible question.
Pelosi and Palin

I will NEVER post again to this board. Such vitriol from some of the posters and it is not worth it. I  do not like the  feeling of being attacked for a simple statement.



We all have our own personal beliefs and opinions.I am just wondering, though, how many people running for a powerful office  are routinely filmed being blessed by their pastors for "protection against witches".


 


I also wonder how many "Christians" would slash their state's Special Olympic budget and then objectify their own special-needs child for political gain.

I can't stand Pelosi
but don't ya recall who's been in the White House for the past 8 years, well make that 20 of the last 28 years.  Obviously the Republican trickle down wealth hasn't worked so well.  And don't give me the Democrats for the past 2 years.  Obviously they haven't done anything either but for the previous 6 years, as I seem to recall Republicans had total control of the government and look where we are? 
Pelosi is in a hurry because....(sm)
just like with every other election, the sooner you can pass stuff the easier it is.  The government is under more scrutiny from the public at the very beginning of a term because they expect to see some changes immediately.  Americans aren't exactly a patient people.  As far as the stimulus plan goes, she needs to be in a hurry because the sooner something is done, the sooner people can get back to work.  We don't have the luxury on this one to sit around and wait to see what kind of bait needs to be there for pubs to sign on like we did with the first bailout.  Two words --- wooden arrows.

Pelosi Bungling Democratic Win With Hastings Appointment


Sunday, November 26, 2006




The first time I met Rep. Jane Harman, D-Calif., in 1984, she announced that she was the new counsel to the Democratic Platform Committee and henceforth would be advising its chairwoman, Geraldine Ferraro, and since she was older and more experienced than I was, she wasn’t looking for direction from me, even if I had put the whole thing together.


Sort of like a truck going 90 miles an hour—and she proceeded to tell Geri exactly the opposite of what I’d agreed to for the first vote with my friends on the Mondale campaign, who controlled a majority of the delegates. I explained the problem to the late Paul Tully, one of the greats in politics, Mondale’s representative, who ambled over to Geri and said it would be a good idea if she listened to me.


Jane insisted. Geri ruled. The chair promptly got overruled. From then on, I told Jane what to tell Geri, and we got along just fine, and have ever since.


Clearly, Nancy and Jane never worked it out.


But that is still no reason to appoint Alcee Hastings to chair the Intelligence Committee, and effectively sacrifice the corruption issue before you’ve begun.


That was the conclusion at my Thanksgiving table, where virtually everyone was friends or fans of Nancy Pelosi, the incoming Speaker, and Jane Harman, who should be the incoming chair of Intelligence, were it not for what everyone seems to concede is a personal problem between the two women.


Now, we all know that when two men hate each other, what do we say? Do we walk around looking for animals to compare their disagreement to?


Do we say these two are caught in a dog fight, and belittle them for it?


The fact is that the fight between Pelosi and Harman reflects badly on Pelosi herself. She is inevitably one of the “cats” in the catfight. It hardly elevates her as a leader to be thought of as a petty woman counting and comparing her Sunday television appearances with the other prominent woman in the delegation.


After all, she is about to be in the line of succession for the presidency. If she is still worried about having other women in the room, then the women who are supporting her have reason to worry about her.


There is also, of course, the question of Harman herself. Yes, she is aggressive, as I found out, and everyone has. But she is also smart, tough and realistic, exactly the sort of person Democrats need to put out front— and yes, a woman in a world in which they are few and far between.


Since Pelosi is not going outside the system to appoint women, the least you might expect is that she would appoint the women who are rightfully in line according to the traditional seniority system.


But perhaps most important, there is the question of corruption and Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Fla.. Corruption was the number two issue mentioned by voters as a reason for not returning the Republicans to control of Congress. Democrats have an opportunity to do something significant about ethics reform. It doesn’t cost money. Why blow it before you start?


When you go back and reread the history on Hastings—who, prior to his election to Congress, was impeached and removed from office as a U.S. District Court judge— it just doesn’t sit well. The vote to impeach him in 1988 was 413-4, with not a single member of the House standing to defend him. While he had been acquitted of bribery charges at trial, a post-trial investigation by the U.S. Court of Appeals concluded that he lied at his trial and faked evidence, and he had in fact plotted with a lawyer to take a payoff for reducing the sentence of a supposed racketeer.


In his Senate trial, John Conyers, a leading black liberal, was one of the prosecutors.


He said: “We argue that he must be removed from office so that he does not teach others that justice may be sold. In 1989, he was convicted by the Senate and removed from the bench.


Is this who Pelosi is going to pass over Jane Harman to put in charge of the Intelligence Committee?


The fact is that whatever rivalry Pelosi and Harman have had over the years is over. Nancy won. She can afford to act like a winner, and appoint Jane. Alcee Hastings is more of a threat to her than Jane.

They took a trip to the UK for partridge hunting and it cost us $88K. Aren't we so kind to them. Yeah, go ahead AIG, take all the trips you want. We don't mind. You all need that time to think up another trip.


Pelosi wants another $300B from the bailout. Don'cha just love her? She's so wonderful.
