I'm as middle class as you get, I can promise you a revolt is coming. Hopefully it will be done at the polls in 2010. But we are angry as hell. Stupid Liberals finally get to see what life is like when idiots with no moral standing are running the country.

Pelosi says.."95% are getting a tax cut".. do you realize that California's budget shortfall (A democrat run state) is 43 billion dollars and in 35 days there is a vote to raise taxes again by about 13 billion??? We have already the highest state tax in the country. Please GOD save us from Nancy Pelosi. She is a complete and total Botox injecting idiot!!

This clueless idiot is running our nation. We are is serious trouble and all she can do is spout out the same old lie that we all know. "Continue Bush's failed economic policies..yada..yada" PEOPLE.. this is the most dangerous human being in America. Obama will oversee the collapse of the dollar and the rush to buy gold in the next 24 months I would bet.

Arrogant...arrogant...arrogant. When this witch's mouth is moving it is spewing lies. Hey look over here...it is all Bush's fault...we are trying to save the planet. Bend over and let me shove this up your backside.

This witch was the Speaker for the last two years while the country has fallen into the toilet. She and Harry Reid need to be taken captive by the Somali Pirates. That would make America safe.

Nancy Pelosi has not had any grasp of "grass roots" or "the great middle class" in her entire life. She is sticking her fingers in her ears and singing "La, la, la" while the "great middle class" is screaming at her to go home and get out of our lives.

Quite simply, Nancy Pelosi is beneath contempt.

original description

She probably won't wake conservatives up to the men behind the curtain, but House Speaker Nancy Pelosi understands a thing or two about the Tea Party Protests. An interviewer at Fox TV in San Francisco said "thousands of Americans...are having a tax and tea party today saying that we're taxing and spending our way into oblivion." Pelosi responded: "....What they want is a continuation of the failed economic policies of President George Bush which got us in the situation we are in now." What we want is a new direction. In fact, in the President's initiative - in the Recovery and in the Budget - 95% of the American people get a tax cut. This is a tax cut for the great middle class. This initiative is funded by the high end - we call call it astroturf, it's not really a grassroots movement. It's astroturf by some of the wealthiest people in America to keep the focus on tax cuts for the rich instead of for the great middle class. Pelosi probably knows a thing or two about the difference. In March 20, 2003, the day after President George W. Bush invaded Iraq, thousands of people participated in a real protest in San Francisco, largely shutting down her district and, in many cases, winding in jail. To put a finer point on it, though, Pelosi released a statement today to make a point that's been lost amidst all the teabag coverage. "Millions of Americans will see their taxes cut this year thanks to the economic plan of the New Direction Congress and President Obama," Pelosi said. "We enacted the fastest tax cut in history--the Making Work Pay Tax Credit--that workers are already seeing in their paychecks."
