After a gentle rebuke from the president, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-CA, said today she regrets using the term ‘un-American’ in Monday’s USA Today op-ed to describe protesters at health care reform townhall meetings held by Democrat lawmakers.
“The president is right,” said Rep. Pelosi, “They’re not un-American. The proper term might be ‘guest protesters’. But since they weren’t really invited to the townhalls, technically they’re ‘undocumented agitators’. However, they are entitled to all the rights and benefits of full American citizenship, including the right to free speech, the right to petition their government for the redress of grievances, and the right to sit down and be silent after your opponent wins the election.”
A White House spokesman responded to the op-ed which Rep. Pelosi co-wrote with House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-MD, by noting, “The President thinks that if people want to come and have a spirited debate about health care, a real vigorous conversation about it, that’s a part of the American tradition. And when all the shouting’s done, it’s good to know these folks will soon be able to get sore throat treatment for free, along with care for any wounds sustained during vigorous conversation with our patriotic labor union members.”
DEAR SAN FRANCISCANS:
Our Nation needs your urgent assistance.
Ms. Pelosi’s insane regurgitations must cease.
SF can do much better than Nancy’s personal “agenda”.
Please note, her 3 day reversal re her absurd statement - “They’re un-American..” - to today’s revised statement - mere “undocumented agitators”...entitled to all the rights and benefits of full American citizenship, including the right to free speech...”
(please stop her madness)

Thank you so very much Ma Pelosi - for granting US our FREEDOM OF SPEECH to oppose your insane rants and hyper-partisan spending.
HOW LONG must our nation suffer under the alleged leadership of this completely detached individual?
Nancy’s malignancy threatens our entire nation.

“Pelosi’s delusions were amplified in an August 4 Democrat party press release, which called the Americans dissenting from the party line on the Obama health scheme, “angry mobs of a small number of rabid right wing extremists funded by K Street lobbyists.” The missive went on to inform us that “These mobs are bussed in by well funded, highly organized groups run by Republican operatives and funded by the special interests who are desperately trying to stop the agenda for change the President was elected to bring to Washington.” You mean well-funded special interests like the SEUI and the George Soros funded MoveOn.org? Again, no evidence was provided to support this slime, and none was requested by our media watchdogs. But at least today’s Democrat party is following a traditional pattern. The old Soviet Communist Party used to call its dissenters “hooligans.”
Yet, rather than un-American Nazis or angry mobsters manufactured by evil corporate interests, these dissenters represent the majority of Americans who increasingly oppose the Obama/Democrat health care scheme. A Rasmussen poll released just yesterday showed that a majority of Americans agree with the town hall dissenters, now opposing the Obama/Democrat health care takeover 53% to 42%. Moreover, 44% strongly oppose it, while only 26% strongly favor it. Among independents, 62% oppose the Obama/Democrat health care scheme, with 51% strongly opposed.
The current political attack on the American people and their views is unprecedented in American history. Is this the change Americans voted for in 2008?”
You got got by Scott Ott.
She is still a hypocrite.
WHAT A HYPOCRITE
As someone once said of Stalin...
It wasn’t a cult of personality,
it was a cult of hypocracy.
In the olden days, we would just call the old bat an ill-mannered nitwit and show her the door.
Sorry if I slurred any of ya’ll regular bats out there.
nanzi pelose is the main reason the USA outlawed INCEST.
Cliff Richard must have had a very unfortunate run-in with Pelosi in 1976 (roflol). There’s also ELO’s song, “Midieval Woman” or the parody of that song by Tim Mayfield. And, let’s not forget the Eagles “Witchy Woman”.
