CHANGE We don't Need -- Pelosi corruption
Emails

Posted on 02/23/2009 5:00:09 AM PST by kevinm13

CHANGE! This kind of Change we don't need.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's home district includes San Francisco.

Star-Kist Tuna's headquarters are in San Francisco, Pelosi's home district.

Star-Kist is owned by Del Monte Foods and is a major contributor to Pelosi.

Star-Kist is the major employer in American Samoa employing 75% of the Samoan work force.

Paul Pelosi, Nancy's husband, owns $17 million dollars of Star-Kist stock.

In January, 2007 when the minimum wage was increased from $5.15 to $7.25, Pelosi had American Samoa exempted from the increase so Del Monte would not have to pay the higher wage. This would make Del Monte products less expensive than their competition's.

Last week when the huge bailout bill was passed, Pelosi added an earmark to the final bill adding $33 million dollars for an 'economic development credit in American Samoa'.

Pelosi has called the Bush Administration "CORRUPT" ? ?

How do you spell "HYPOCRISY" ?


TOPICS: Business/Economy; Local News
KEYWORDS: corruption; misappropriation; pelosi; sanfrancisco; shakedowns; stimulus; transparency
Read the porkulus bill so that we can expose this kind of corruption. The bill is likely to be loaded with stuff like this.

Bet that this story never ever sees the light of day in the San Francisco media. The media are the Democrats accomplices and will never report anything unfavorable about their darlings.

That and her son working for Countrywide while getting paid by some fraud company. Yet being a Dem, PravdABC lets her prance and lecture everyone about corruption.

Pray for America, Our Troops and obama

I got this in an email several months ago. I forwarded it to a friend in SF who *was* a HUGE Pelosie supporter. I think the tide has been turned on Ms Pelousi.

“How do you spell “HYPOCRISY” ?” Personally, I spell it L-I-B-E-R-A-L.
