Pelosi

[Counts]

What is so wrong with her? Really have never understood the hate for her, what are some examples of her being as bad as people say? Anyone?

Well IMHO she is a shineing example of what is WRONG with congress on BOTH sides.

One of the BIG things that get me personaly is how hypocritical she is (#1 Gets a increase in the Min Wage with an exemption for her famley owned canning bussness so that it is not effected) (#2 While the (R)s were in charge she was Huge (and rightly so) in demanding that the minorty party (D)s have a voice in shapeing bills however when her party got control one of the 1st things she did was pass new house rules wipeing out the minorty partys abality to shape the bills) (#3 She has turned on members of he own party that have any opinion other than her vision of the party line)


IMHO She will be re-elected for as long as she wants to be but she will be the cause of several lost congressonal seats over the next few election

The first one is just completely wrong. The exemption wasn't for a "family owned canning business", not really close. It was for a Starkist tuna company on a pacific island, who's is owned by a company who is based in her district in California. Not a hometown family owned business like it was made out to be. It was proven that she didn't receive any donations or anything from them, their wage is 3.50 something and doubling that for the minimum wage law would hurt that hurt the company and maybe cause them to lay a lot of workers off?

Second one, I would just like to see those bills.

Third one, she is accused of "turning her back" on some members of the party because of her support of some of the Bush bills I mentioned before. They weren't too popular with the Dems and she voted in favor of them, also help blocking the impeachment deal didn't help her too much either.

I consider myself a Dem and all, but I'd be scared stupid if Pelosi were to be Prez.
I just do not like that woman.

[R13]

I'm not her biggest fan, but I don't believe she is nowheres near as bad as people say.

"voted for No Child Left Behind"
Thats one strike against her.
Laura Bush shouldve been beat over the head for that one.

I think that was the argument against raising the Min Wage across the board it is just funny how the exemption benifets her district and everyone else be damned

IMHO She would eat her own children to further her political agenda (The statment of you are eather with us of against us was stupid when Bush made it and is equily stupid when she lives by it)

The way I see it, turn about is fair play. I don't like the woman, but she's running over the GOP in much the same way the GOP ran over America for the past few years...and that doesn't hurt my feelings one bit.

THAT is the adatude that will distroy America one side always 1uping the other it sould not be about payback but makeing America a better place I do not care what political side you are on if your #1 goal is to stick it to the other side you are doing a diservice to the American people.........IMHO BOTH sides suck but the (D)s have been doing more than there fair share of sucking lately

It'll take a lot of "payback" to rectify what the Bush Administration did for 8 years...

You know payback and fixing are 2 differant things don't you?

Not everything Bush did was bad and not everything that this Congress is doing is good.

This whole pay back thing just goes to show you that to most of our elected officals politics is a game that you eather win or lose and not a duty to actualy repersent and work for the betterment of the American people
