NRCC Going After Dems on Whether They Support Pelosi as Speaker

(heh) The Chickens are coming home to roost on Pelosi. I so hate her misquotes of Martin Luther King for her own purposes. She is a Sexist Bigot, and Drunk on power. She needs to step down for the good of the country and her own as well…

Concern trollery and projection. “[S]trong-arm… divisive and radical policies through Congress and onto the American people,” “wasted over a trillion dollars,” “radical, irresponsible,” “[s]omeone that divisive and that polarizing cannot bring us together…” Geez, why do they hate Bush/Cheney/Rove politics and governance now?

What you see as waste and others (maybe like Pelosi) are often different. I would say you made your point if Bush was actually *able* to strong arm Congress. He was not. That he might have tried, I'll grant you that he did a few times. He even may have succeeded right after 9-11 with the fear that gripped the country. But in the end, he could do little but sit back and watch,

That Democrats are more easily strongarmed by Pelosi than Bush is pretty much the thrust here. She does it 'because she can' and that is the pure and simple truth. I am no lover of extreme left policies, and encouraging illegal immigration (read her commentaries when you google that in as well for an eye-popper) just puts this waste of space way over the edge in my book. That she has become so beligerant with people in her own party to open up *this* door speaks volumes. You have to really have twisted hard enough to hurt to get here, and I suspect she has angered as high a percentage of Congressmen and Congresswomen as she has Americans at large. Her approval rating is like how negative?

Defend something defensible. She is beyond that. Although every kook who does try makes the left leaners look just a little more extreme, so your rants really actually make me happy. Either way is good for me!!!

;'{P~~~~

Patriot Act, Bankruptcy “reform,” Iraq, FISA violations and subsequent “reform” and immunity for telco's, MCA, Medicare “reform,” politicizing DOJ to the point of incredibility…

What was that you were saying, “[d]efend something defensible,” and “wast of space”…? Indeed.

Heck…I'm stuck in the middle on this one. I can't stand Pelosi, but I hate to give the sleazy hacks that constitute todays GOP even the slightest bit of credit. Generally, you can depend on the GOP to hysterically shriek about the splinters in the democrat's eyes even as they stumble blindly because of the redwood sized tree in their own…but

…I can't bring myself to entirely disagree. They may play her up as 'radical' and 'irresponsible'…which is hypocrisy of a level only the GOP is capable of (considering the last 8 years of near retardation and violent partisanship)…

…but that doesn't make Pelosi any less of a hack. Her 'leadership' has been a black abyss of cronyism that has led the DNC and congress into pathetic gridlock even at their moment of greatest advantage. People too readily forget that the Democrats have their own partisan thugs that must be dealt with…and Pelosi is very much one of those.

I won't respond to strangely_enough. Obviously, Pelsoi is their girl, and to hell with the tactics she'll use. But you seem reasonable enough to actually talk to. A breath of fresh air!

I'd actually vote for a “Blue Dog” truely conservative Democrat. My brother may become a congressman of just that sort. I voted for Salazar over Coors for Senate. And yes, the GOP is really a good ole boys club that needs to be shaken up and get new blood. Despite the fact taht I think Palin was not the best choice, I think she may have scared teh boys a wee bit…

I'd be Libertarian, even though I agree with them less than Republicans on what I consider smaller matters. But most line and core Democrats seem bent on the “enthrallment” of the masses. If you depend upon the Government for your very survival, who are you going to kick out? They seem to be going for that. The problem is that any really productive people are likely to leave, and the whole thing will deservedly collapse anyways. If I see that coming, don't expect me to hang around to try and prop that house of cards up! I'll be in another country, pronto paying taxes to *their* Governement and maybe even *their* Mafia, which might be cheaper, BTW…

Likewise!

I'm a terrible cynic, so no matter how mad I am at one party, I still don't trust the other…ever. The GOP has booted all the moderate voices out of the party for years now, resulting in a kind of brain drain on the RNC. At least the DNC is a big enough house to accept moderates, liberals and a few conservatives in their ranks (despite Pelosi and cronies best efforts).

I'd fall into the 'blue dog' definition too, since I lean left on issues of personal liberties and privacy rights, church and state seperation, issues of transparency and accountability etc…but I take a sharp curve to the right and get awfully stodgy when it comes to sound fiscal decisions and the maintenance of our military and intelligence services.

I can't even say I hate ALL big government programs, since the government (be it federal state or local) is the best provider of those things which we cannot manage and maintain on a small/local/personal scale…PROVIDED that said government service is held to strict standards of accountability. But even so, the health care reform bill has been whittled into a boondoggle of epic proportions.

Mostly, I expect we'll get a bill that subsidizes insurance through private agencies and basically does what we already have…overcharging for minimal/insufficient coverage, but with average taxpayers footing the bloated bill for it all. (Trust the DNC to assume a complete majority and then argue their own way out of power and relevance…Heckuva Job, Nancy!) ;-)

You need to start reading The Wall Street Journal. Your tired little sound bites are exactly what ignorant liberals throw out–without really understanding the rationale behind them. You also conveniently ignore that the Democrats had the majority in Congress for the last two years of the Bush presidency. If Bush's foreign policy was so bad, why is Obama basically following most of it? If you actually read something non-biased–I'm guessing you get your info from Bill Maher, Jon Stewart and Janeane Garafalo and maybe Keith Olberman at best (yikes–I wouldn't call any of these people journalists). The TARP program that Bush enacted and I disagreed with is actually showing success. Bankrupting our nation by expanding government is not a worthy cause–and you shouldn't be supporting ANY politician who is doing that–Democrat or Republican–if you care about your rights. Nancy Pelosi isn't interested in you, she is interested in NANCY PELOSI. She cares about keeping her butt in office so she can fly around the country and be a big shot–at your expense. Sorry Virginia, but the pols aren't flying on unicorns and pooping butterflies. Obama came from the most corrupt political machine in the country. I like him, disagree with his politics, and I'm guessing he owes many favors to many people. Sadly, we are becoming too much a nation of politicians interested in expanding their personal power and influence, instead of bringing FRESH ideas, unencumbered by lobbyists and special interests, to Washington. Instead, we have career politicians–who will say anything to a bunch of naive voters–just to get their vote. They know their programs will be inefficient and will run in the red forever, and they know they will raise taxes–as much as they think we can bear. We need to shrink the power of the government–that is why I dislike Nancy Pelosi. You can defend her all you want, but just know that you are absolutely nothing to her but a vote.
