Nancy Pelosi’s Record

Posted by: Brian on November 3, 2006 at 4:31 pm

There’s a reason why she’s in hiding. She’s hiding from stuff like this:

Typical for her 20-year House career, Mrs. Pelosi received a 100 percent rating from NARAL Pro-Choice America last year and a 0 rating from the National Right to Life Committee. A Roman Catholic who has repeatedly voted to uphold partial-birth abortion, who has voted against parental notification when minor children seek abortion and who has shown no concern for the rights of the innocent unborn, Mrs. Pelosi has consistently opposed the death penalty.

Over the years, Mrs. Pelosi has consistently voted against welfare reform, including the 1996 bill signed by President Clinton and its re-authorization. In 1998, she opposed a constitutional amendment to permit school prayer in the classroom. In 1999, she opposed allowing state and local governments to display the Ten Commandments on public property, including schools. She has voted against education IRAs. In 2003, she opposed a $10 million program for school vouchers in the District of Columbia. That same year she voted against the 10-year $400 billion Medicare prescription-drug bill because she preferred one that was twice as expensive. Mrs. Pelosi has repeatedly voted for tax increases and opposed tax cuts, even the 2001 bill that doubled the child tax credit to $1,000, among other cuts.

Much, much more, so go read the rest.

Republicans need to start pointing stuff like this out in great detail. It’s not enough to just say “oh, they’ll raise taxes”, you’ve got to give voters hard-core examples in order to convince them you’re right.

      Over the years, Mrs. Pelosi has consistently voted against welfare reform, including the 1996 bill signed by President Clinton and its re-authorization.

      This million or so workers that came into the workforce added so much government revenues and helped government spending decline. That and the Y2K issue that every government agency and corporation was trying to fix (which made them spend until it was fixed) drove a bubble economy that started collapsing in April 2000 (after Y2K). Bubble meaning an economy higher than it should’ve been. The recession was deep and would’ve been much longer had there not been the phased in 2003 tax cuts that let corporation and indivduals keep more and therefore spend more of their earnings…

      She’s not hiding. You’re just lying.

      I’ll save you the trouble of having to look it up.

      1 : to make an untrue statement with intent to deceive
      2 : to create a false or misleading impression

      But then, you’ll wish she was hiding when she’s b-slapping your beloved Republican friends all over creation starting next week.

      :) That’d be funny. Veto proof tax increases clb72? Will they get through the Senate?

      Hey Cindy, how ya doin’?

      Another blog spoke of Pelosi laying low, but then the libs who visit dug up some appearances. Of course, to dig them up means they haven’t been well publicized, so she’s laying low.

      The Nance is on top, and a new Congressional low is reached.

      What I can’t stand is that she preaches about how Republicans have abused the poor, the military and the hard-working Middle Class, all while wearing expensive designer clothes.

      So I made a poster mashing up her ethics with her fancy suits:
