Pelosi muddles Constitution, goes partisan on ‘anti-government’ ideology

Pelosi attempts to cite the Constitution, Video at Breitbart. (Screen snip from video)Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), no doubt aching to get the House speaker gavel back in her hands, often amuses political observers in the same way Vice President Joe Biden does. Pelosi’s presser on Thursday was no exception.

Once again she skewed the U.S. Constitution, the contract all members of Congress vow to uphold. So does the president, but with this administration, that promise has apparently been waived just like ObamaCare Tax Bill requirements for a number of union groups.

Treasury Sec. Geithner’s confession upends Pelosi’s Bush-bashing presser

This video features a young Barack Obama and others confirming banks were forced to make risky loans that came to be called “Ninja Loans”—no income, no job, no assets required. (Video: YouTube)

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) held a presser on Thursday, blaming President George W. Bush for the troubled U.S. economy. Pelosi told media Republicans want to return the country to policies that caused the “trouble in the first place,” and President Barack Obama wants to take the economy “forward.”

Pelosi actually could have blamed President Franklin D. Roosevelt, but what’s interesting in the present is that her Bush-bashing presser is upended by  a confession from Obama’s Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner when he testified before Congress.

For your amusement, some facts that fly in the face of Pelosi’s purely political statements:

Robin Hood’s revenge: How Obama and Democrats helped Scott Walker win 

Video from Scott Walker's campaign site. (Screen snip)There’s a message for President Barack Obama and the Democrats in Gov. Scott Walker’s recall win in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Obama and his party played an indirect role in Walker’s victory.

In fact, Robin Hood extracted revenge on Tuesday, although the thought probably hasn’t occurred to Dems or Republicans.

Big media FAIL: Pelosi’s Fluke fluke

Sandra Fluke was introduced by Pelosi as a "passionate leader for young women, and all women" at the hearing Democrats held.(Screen Snip/C-Span video)The Left went big time crazy when conservative king of satire Rush Limbaugh posed a question asking if Sandra Fluke was a slut (since she wanted public funding for her birth control) and if that made him a pimp (since taxpayers would pay for the funding).

The door to controversy was actually blasted open by Democrats in the House.

Putting Pelosi’s video on South in context

Updated on Monday, March 19, 2012 at 1:00PM by Registered CommenterKay B. Day, Editor

Alexandra Pelosi traveled to Mississippi and talked to some of the state’s male residents for a political video.  Pelosi appears to have concentrated on rural or small-town residents, but no geographic locations are pinpointed other than the state. A scandalized evangelical preacher, the homeless and President George W. Bush have all been subjects of Pelosi’s previous films.

The Daily Caller featured Pelosi’s video after it aired on Bill Maher’s political satire show on HBO. Maher made the predictable jokes about the South—standard fare for political class elitists who on the one hand embrace a philosophy of victimology and on the other despise the very people they profess they want to help.

Obviously, Washington is terrified.

I didn’t even have to look. As I switched on the computer this morning, I knew exactly what the header on Drudge would be.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) phrased her words carefully, but she still set herself up.

Do ObamaCare waivers provide more evidence for lawsuit?

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) vilified anyone who disagreed with ObamaCare. Pelosi especially vilified tea partiers, accusing them of many things that had no basis in reality. (Screen snip)

Democrats are famous for passing legislation without logically assessing the consequences. Of course, with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act known as ObamaCare, Dems couldn’t assess consequences because most of them didn’t even read the bill they voted for.

Any American not outraged by that needs a reality check. Liberals decided to socialize the US healthcare system by shoving a pig in a poke at us.

It’s my opinion the bill was put together based on a wish list from favored lobbyists.
