Pelosi's wealth grows by 62 percent
By Kevin Bogardus - 06/15/11 12:46 PM ET
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) saw her net worth rise 62 percent last year, cementing her status as one of the wealthiest members of Congress.

Pelosi was worth at least $35.2 million in the 2010 calendar year, according to a financial disclosure report released Wednesday. She reported a minimum of $43.4 million in assets and about $8.2 milion in liabilities.

For 2009, Pelosi reported a minimum net worth of $21.7 million.

Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) also remained a multimillionaire. He reported that his minimum net worth in 2010 was close to $2.1 million, with zero liabilities. His 2009 minimum net worth was more than $1.8 million.

1. On Boehner, 2.1 million does not a multimillionaire make.
   
Goes to show you though, Pelosi is willing to raise her own taxes and she has a lot more than he does.

 :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:

Oh please she doesn't pay the tax rate for her level income now, what makes you morons think when she raises taxes she will pay them? High taxes are for other people.

16. Her husband is wealthy and an investor.
   
Is there something wrong with that?

Get out the guillotine since you hate wealthy people.

Wish I could say this is a new development for the primtives, but it's the same as they've always been.  If it's someone they like, that individual gets a pass, it doesn't matter what the issue is.

14. Unrec for an attack on a loyal Democrat

What party they are affiliated with makes all the difference.

52. Rich = Evil.
   
And everyone that has one nickel more than I do is evil.

Matters not that they may have worked like dogs their entire lives to accumulate that wealth, having money makes one evil.

Matters not that they have devoted huge sums of money to further progressive causes, that money was probably stolen from the poor to begin with.

You just know every wealthy politician is a crook, you know, like every Kennedy that ever held office.



I learned that on the DU.

Freeper troll.

Uh-huh, one of the principal characteristics of a primitive.

Yes, and instead of reflecting on that aspect of themselves, they immediately started squabbling about how the stockmarket works and how rich Darryl Issa is. 


Yay for Boehner for being debt-free, BTW.

According to democrat party policy, it means he's insufficiently taxed.

I wonder what Michael Moore thinks of Nancy Lugosi's vast heap of loot?

Well, Mikie? Nobodies biniss? Of course unless we are talking about republicans in which case their wealth is filthy lucre and subject to being redistributed to the unwashed masses for the greater good of the collective, nyet?
