What does that even mean? That some shall-remain-unnamed Republican colleague literally told her, presumably when asked why he supported the one percent budget cut to the federal food stamp program recently passed in the farm bill or why he did not support extending unemployment benefits or something, that his entire party’s policy platform is based off of its collective and utter indifference to the plight of families in poverty? …Why do I feel skeptical? Via RCP:
(VIDEO-AT-LINK)
"I asked a Republican friend why his party remains so opposed to extending the vital lifelines for struggling families and really hungry children. This colleague’s response was telling in its blunt nature and it’s stunning in its honestly. What he said was to the Republican caucus, these people you are talking about are invisible, and the Republican caucus is indifferent to them. Invisible and indifferent. This is just plain wrong. That is not the leadership the American people deserve and it is up to us to demonstrate clearly how Democrats are different."
Ahh, yes — because with the Minority Leader, it’s never the case that Republicans have well-intentioned yet incorrect or impractical policy proposals. It’s always the case that Republicans’ common unifying characteristic is their sociopathic disdain for their fellow human beings, or else their innate aversion to things like “clean water and clean air” or whatever. I mean, I get it: Who wants to have an uncomfortably honest discussion about policy outcomes when you can just slander Republicans for their ostensibly intrinsic derangement? As Ed already noted earlier today, it’s been mighty useful for Democrats to aggressively pretend that Republicans are the craven hyper-partisans in this rodeo (while they themselves are of course paragons of centrism and human compassion), so remember: The only possible solution for lifting people out of poverty is further expanding the already unsustainable entitlement state, or else you’re an apathetic, uncompromising, black-hearted bottom-feeder.
Kinda like the friend who told Hairy Roid that Mitt Romney doesn’t pay taxes?
Tell us who he/she is Nancy!! Otherwise BS.
Some sources say that Pelosi just makes crap up.
Ive been telling people that Obama...was a alien for years...a SPACE ALIEN

Pelosi committed perjury to get Obama elected.
==> Healthcare and benefits for her Samoans.
Liar liar pants on fire.
Boehner?
Yeah...all Republicans are heartless, evil white male slave holding racist greedheads, and all Democrats are caring, loving, generous, inclusive, tolerant, racially diverse and selfless.
Except that the generous part is always with someone else’s money.
And the “caring, loving” part doesn’t extend to human beings temporarily stuck in Mommy’s womb.
And the racially diverse part doesn’t extend to Nancy, Barbara or Dianne’s neighborhood.
A democrat friend told me than Nancy Pelosi sheds her skin like a snake
Pelosi is “indifferent” to logic and reason.
That means that since the DemoRat party has F’ed up just about everything, Pelosi needs to go back to that special GULLIBLE group the DemoRat party has always counted on for votes: SINGLE FEMALES. She’s talkin’ to females here. A variation of the ‘War on Women’ mantra. PeloSiOps 101
It is easy to accept that this lady is a clown? What is difficult to accept are the clowns who voted for her!!!!
And there are no Republicans willing to call her out? Cowards all.
Talk is cheap from this political whore, name names NAN.
Cindy Sheehan almost knocked her out of office a few years back. Yes, that Cindy Sheehan.
A friend of mine told me Nancy’s daddy ran the furnaces in Auschwitz.
She’s lying, she never talked to me!!!
If kids are starving it’s their parents problem and no one’s else!!
I’m sure not willing to feed them or anyone else!
Pelosi has a friend?!
