Nancy Pelosi takes swipe at President Obama's campaign promises

By PATRICK O'CONNOR & GLENN THRUSH | 1/5/10 7:04 PM EST


House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, piqued with White House pressure to accept the Senate health reform bill, threw a rare rhetorical elbow Tuesday at President Barack Obama, questioning his commitment to his 2008 campaign promises.

A leadership aide said it was no accident.

Pelosi emerged from a meeting with her leadership team and committee chairs in the Capitol to face an aggressive throng of reporters who immediately hit her with C-SPAN’s request that she permit closed-door final talks on the bill to be televised.

A reporter reminded the San Francisco Democrat that in 2008, then-candidate Obama opined that all such negotiations be open to C-SPAN cameras.

“There are a number of things he was for on the campaign trail,” quipped Pelosi, who has no intention of making the deliberations public.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

This looks promising...

Maybe (I'm probably hoping against hope here, but who knows; stranger things have happened) Nancy is feeling a little dispondent and depressed.  Next thing you know she's going to be found dead - double taps to the back of the head - in Ft. Marcy Park. An obvious case of suicide if ever there was one.

We can only hope!
"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."


~ Dr. William Pierce

I am suprised she is acting like that with her beloved leader

Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it, misdiagnosing it and then misapplying the wrong remedies.

If she refuses to accept the senate bill as is that means whatever comes out of the ping-pong has to be re-clotured and if she decides to get into a dick-measuring contest with Obambi their egos may yet sink this thing.
