Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi accused health insurance companies of making "immoral profits" on PBS' "Newshour." "They're making billions of dollars in profits while they're cutting off people for benefits," she added."

[SaraJohnson]

Ah, the socialist’s “moral high ground” again. WE have not seen this nonsense in decades! Nan is showing her “moral high ground” age. She’s forgetting that the higher liberals climb up that “moral high round” hill, the harder the fall.

Wow so I guess that now the government specifies how much of a profit all buisnesses can make? Isn’t that full fledged communism?

[Caipirabob]

Anti-Constitutional governance is immoral.

This is proof that she and Harry have no clue how the economy works. All week my wife who owns a small business is training project management at one of the larger insurance companies in the country. I can tell you that the work she is performing this week has enabled her to meet her companies fiscal obligations (employee payroll, taxes, etc...). The last project she had was with a large oil and gas company - the one before that was with one of the largest mining companies in the world. All who are on the Democrat hit list. Talk about “spreading the wealth around.” A small business owner creating jobs and paying 941’s every month - I thought this is who these idiots say they're fighting for. Obviously not! All Freeper’s can see right through their Bull!

Heck,Hillary said we should take the profits from the oil companies a while back so I guess Nancy wants to grab some cash from the insurance companies.Democrats think your money is their money to spend as they please.Sounds like stealing to me though.

[Sarajevo]

How was that AIG bailout, pelosi? It wasn’t immoral as long as you’re spending OUR money like a gold-digging wench with a checkbook.

[Pilated]

And what immoral profits is Nancy Pelosi making in her position? What’s in her bank accounts and other secret places?

[Atom Smasher]

This demented, lying, deceiving, cut throat of a speaker should be the last one to speak about “immoral profits”!

Hey Pelosi - how much are the reps in the house & senate being paid for NOT reading the bills they pass?

How much are your salaries, & are you paying the higher taxes like the citizens?

And when you FINALLY lose your position as speaker, and hopefully get voted out of your seat, what is your salary going to be for retirement?

You senators & reps have been making immoral profits for decades!

[El Cid]

Damn - the Dem playbook only has one play: foster divisions. 'Divide and conquer'.
If they're not pushing class warfare, its race warfare. 'Evil companies' ... 'Evil banks' ... yeah the Dems always pushing hatred.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

We can only hope Nancy will fall - and fail - soon.
