Pelosi Statement on President Obama’s Call to Extend the Middle Class Tax Cuts July 09, 2012

Washington, D.C. – Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement today after President Obama called for the extension of tax cuts for all Americans making up to $250,000 per year:

“Today, President Obama once again stood firmly with America’s middle class and small businesses. Democrats and the President have always fought for an extension of the tax cuts for middle-income families to offer greater relief and economic certainty to all working Americans.

“Once again, Republicans must decide: will they continue to hold middle class tax cuts hostage to tax breaks for the wealthiest or will they agree to pass the middle class tax cuts we all agree should become law?

“Republicans have failed to put forward a plan to create jobs or end the outsourcing of American jobs, and continue to waste valuable time on bills to nowhere. We must work together to extend tax cuts for the middle class, put people to work, and grow our economy.”

Why doesn’t he just issue one of his famous decrees? It’s the way he seems to deal with just about everything else.

Need to propose a bill making the Bush Tax Cuts Permanent. Then we'll see who's really standing by the middle class!

You would think the Pubbies would get tired of getting clubbed in the head with the same issue every year.

When Bush was in office:
Pelosi claims the Bush tax cuts that have led to economic growth are only benefitting a certain segment of the U.S. population.

"With tax cuts for the wealthiest few causing red ink as far as the eye can see, incomes falling, and our jobs moving overseas, the economic record of President Bush is dismal for middle-class families," Pelosi said. "The Bush economy is going in the wrong direction: gas prices are sky-high and health costs are an overwhelming burden for too many Americans."


When Obama is in office:
“Today, President Obama once again stood firmly with America’s middle class and small businesses. Democrats and the President have always fought for an extension of the tax cuts for middle-income families to offer greater relief and economic certainty to all working Americans.


Hypocritical TRIPE!!!

Is this the "Bush tax cuts for the rich" we heard so much about?

"Always" as used here can be defined as "since earlier today."

I always think of a feral dog baying at a full moon when Pelosi crosses my mind.

While watching the evening news, if her mugshot appears on the screen, and we can't find the remote quick enough (because it's buried somewhere in the sofa) to change the channel to Toddlers in Tiaras, the boy and I start yapping like coyotes until she's off the screen.

She's a barking mad bitch, that one is.

Every time this creature opens her mouth, I am totally shocked and confused that people actually elected this thing to Congress. One can only imagine that the Democrats must have searched deeply below any measurable intelligence quotient in order to choose her as their leader... Even people labeled as dumb are geniuses compared to this useless tool.

I don’t know how this piece of human debris can have any self respect at all. I couldn’t live with myself if this is how I have to conduct myself. She is a lying sack of dung!

Anxious to see whether the MSM points out the reversal in extending the tax cuts.

Then again I know they will merely mouth talking points and let it go at that.
