Democrats’ real problem is that Nancy Pelosi is their true face
NY Post ^ | June 22, 2017 | Post Editorial Board

Posted on 06/22/2017 10:01:14 PM PDT by Oshkalaboomboom

Furious at their loss in yet another Trump-era special election, Democrats are calling for the head of . . . House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.

It’s understandable: Republican ads in Georgia painted the Democrat, Jon Ossoff, as sure to be a Pelosi pawn — a charge that has scored for the GOP in race after race over the last decade.

New York’s own Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-Nassau) is far from alone in saying, “It’s time for Nancy Pelosi to go, and the entire leadership team.”

And Rice backed Pelosi in last year’s leadership fight. The challenger, Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio), is even more brutal, warning, “Our brand is worse than Trump’s.”

Thing is, Ryan’s got more of an eye on the real problem: the Democratic brand, which Pelosi in fact embodies perfectly.

She is, after all, a millionaire San Francisco party-line liberal incapable of understanding what most of America wants and needs. (Indeed, seeing eye-to-eye with the Democratic-voting elite is what makes her one of the party’s best fund-raisers.)

I don’t think anyone would want Chicago. They might have to restructure it as a Territory or Proctectorate.

That same scenario has played out many times in our countries history.

Who knows, if they change their figurehead, maybe they’ll change their figure.

Nancy Pelosi has made it plain what she thinks. If the Democrat voter doesn’t know, I think that voter was fooling himself or herself.

That’s a harder game now that Donald Trump is frequently reminding people.

We The People have seen the result of their socialism, and it is Venezuela.

I lived in Venezuela in the 70s before Chavez. It had a vibrant economy and oddly enough an illegal immigration problem from Columbia. Many desperate Colombians were fleeing the the violence of FARC which was a communist rebel organization closely allied to the drug cartels.

Today Venezuelans are fleeing to Columbia because they are hungry.

I would very like to walk the places I once lived in Venezuela. I can not do this today as social disorder is the norm and violence and death is rampant.

Columbia has been most grand in accepting these refugees of Venezuela. There is only so much that they can accept.

It is most sad that the nation that sits on the greatest oil reserves in the world has come to this sad point. It will end in extreme violence. The good guys will win but at great sacrifice for all.

It’s not even possible that Nancy Pelosi is the Democrats true face. Heck, her face isn’t even her own true face!

the democrat party made a fatal mistake in the 1970s. this is a mistake that has a potential of destroying there party.

The party started to listen to the activist and catering to there demands. this is a mall group who is just vocal and do not represent as many people as they claim. at this point the activist who usually only care about one or two issues and will sacrifice all other points of view. this has made it impossible to have debate within the party on what positions to have.

Everyone has to be Pro abortion. pro gun control, anti death penalty, supportive of gay rights, have the opinion that anyone who is a minority by being a minority is being persecuted. and you better use politically approved language when talking about these issues or the activists will destroy you politically

the republican party did not go down this rout and thank god we did not. you can be a conservat6ive and have an unpopular opinion within the republican party . you might be called a R.I.N.O by some one that holds the majority opinion on that issue but you wont be ostracized unlike the democrat party.

"People won’t forget how Pelosi and her fellow socialists cratered our economy after they took cntrol in 2007."

Oh, but they will. How do you think democrats got control in the first place? People have very short memories. It is the same reason people can be so easily convinced that northeast temps in the 50's or 60's on Christmas Day are unusual. They're not. Going back a hundred years, it has happened quite often.

Correct.
Post children for the Den Party. Schiffs in the lead also.
Liars and hypocrites

Just viewing either makes me want to puke.
As soon as I see 1 I turn off what I am viewing.

(watching Pelosi’s hands infuriates me for some reason)

Nancy Pelosi is a “Margret Drysdale Democrat”. So is Hillary.

Great point. These loud activist groups also make it easy for the media by feeding them lots of press releases and ready made "news".

Meanwhile while the media was busy looking at the noisy leftist circus acts the deep state and their lobbyist buddies were quietly taking control over DC and turning America into a Kleptocracy.

That is how you end up with candidates like Hillary Clinton who takes $250K speaking fees from Goldman Sachs while claiming she represents poor working women.
