'Are You Better Off This Holiday?,' Democrats Ask [Pelosi Alert]
CNSNews ^ | December 07, 2005 | Susan Jones

Posted on 12/07/2005 6:25:27 AM PST by ncountylee

In a year-end effort to raise funds -- as well as enthusiasm for the Democratic Party -- House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is urging fellow Democrats to "look back" over the past year and consider how Republicans have messed things up. Pelosi mentions a Republican Party in charge of the White House and both chambers of Congress that "decided to go full throttle" on corruption.

"They hoped that by shutting down all avenues of accountability, they could establish a permanent stranglehold on our government where they would be insulated from any consequences for betraying the public trust," Pelosi wrote in a message on behalf of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

"It's time to clean House,"" Pelosi said. The DCCC's mission is to elect more Democrats to Congress -- and Pelosi is telling Americans that there is no better gift this holiday season than making a contribution toward throwing the Republicans right out of Congress.

"Think of that friend or that member of your family who has been hurt, or even just outraged by what the Republicans have done to our country -- is there anything they want more than to help restore decency to our government?"

Pelosi writes that a contribution to the DCCC will reward not just a friend or a loved one -- but all Americans, because it will "bring us closer to ending the radical agenda of George Bush and his Republican Cover-Up Congress."

We'd be a lot better off if she and her ilk stop breathing.

Same here. Plus just got a pay raise and bonus. Glad Ms Pelosi is so concerned about our well-being.

Yes, we are better off however not thanks to government.

I am more and more tired of the liberal democrat diatribe that comes across as news this year that was not as obvious last year.
