Had the Republicans taken control of Congress in 2008, the country would have sunk into a depression, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), told CNBC Thursday.
If we had not won re-election and intervened, we would be in a depression, said Pelosi.
She cited tax cuts for the wealthy, two wars and a prescription drug bill that gave away the store to the pharmaceutical industry, under George W. Bush, as partially to blame for the current state of the economy.

If I'm right about that, she knows that factoid will be played up in every MSM article about the overthrow of her regime (or it will be just as soon as I email it to Drudge).
PING for FACEPALMPICS
Pelosi is such a liar. I have a map (if I find the link I will post it) that clearly shows since the dems took majority our nation has gone to hell.
Does this witch from hell really believe this will help the democrats?
STOP trying to make people believe the Republicans had control of congress till 2008, because IT IS A LIE!
To paraphrase the great Ronald Reagan:
It’s called a recession when your neighbor loses his job,
It’s called a depression when you lose your job,
And it won’t be a recovery until Nancy Pelosi loses her job.
actually the house went to the dems in 2006 and the unemployment rate was 4.2% at the time they came to power.
The GOP candidate in EVERY Senate race across the country needs to hang that around their opponents neck.
she is not only thoroughly dishonest but so incompetent that she never should have been allowed to collect garbage, never mind become Speaker
Pelosi doesn’t even grasp that her leftist talking points have NOTHING to do with cause-and-effect in the economy as SHE thinks she understands it
She’s not even a decent propagandist for idiocy
Great graph!
They took a portion of my fortune.
Portunately.
Hey...If I had been laying QB for the San Diego Chargers these past years, they would have won at least 4 Super Bowls... (go ahead, prove it wouldn’t have happened- LOL)
ROFL - I KNEW you were going to say that!
Her absolute lack of credibility and humility is amusing.
Actually Pelosi and crew took over in Jan ‘07 after the ‘06 elections. A common rule of thumb is 1.5-2 years for the effects of economic policies to ripple through the economy, so the timing of the crash fits pretty well with congressional Democrat economic policy.
The GOP wouldn’t be in the present political situation that it is to, greatly, increase its political numbers, at each and every political level, if we had President John McCain and Vice President Sarah Palin, instead.
That’s one of the better pictures of Nancy.
