Maybe she can give them some of the $100 Million she embezzled?

Pray for America

So Nancy who forced them into your death care..Something you and your colleges knew would kill them..

Maybe if the Republicans can undo some of the things you and your Communist friends have done they poor elderly won't have to starve or die at the hands of Dr Kevorkian..I hope ever senior citizens will go to the polls and vote every last one of you filthy pigs out of Washington..

More of their “scare everybody”. How many years have they done this — 20, 30, 40? You would think they could say something more intelligent. Too bad some people believe the same thing year after year after year.

Hey. They changed their playbook up a little bit. Last time the Rats said Grandma and Grandpa would be eating dog food from a can. Now it is full out starvation. Way to switch it up Pelosi.

Is not this the babe who was flying around on a DC 10 or a 757 at government expense to and from San Fran? If she would have forsaken a few trips on that jet, we would have plenty of money to feed many many Sr.’s for a long time.

Numbers? Like the number of 300 million--for the amount of American workers supposedly losing their job per day if certain legislation wasn't passed?

Hey Stretch P., doesn't your hubby have an interest in a tuna cannery in the S. Pacific? If so, have him dispurse some of that fish to the phantom starving masses.

Anyway, I like my tuna solid white packed in spring water (I don't care if it is or is not "dolphin free" ... also, mercury-free).

Ryan in the Wall Street Journal today:

"Starting in 2022, new Medicare beneficiaries will be enrolled in the same kind of health-care program that members of Congress enjoy. Future Medicare recipients will be able to choose a plan that works best for them from a list of guaranteed coverage options. This is not a voucher program but rather a premium-support model. A Medicare premium-support payment would be paid, by Medicare, to the plan CHOSEN BY the beneficiary, subsidizing its cost. In addition, Medicare will provide increased assistance for lower- income beneficiaries and those with greater health risks. Reform that empowers individuals—with more help for the poor and the sick—will guarantee that Medicare can fulfill the promise of health security for America's seniors.

That's NOT privatization. In fact, while this reform is a great start, the plan continues the Washington tradition of extending open-ended promises on Medicare without paying for them (even though the cost is much lower). Also, this may be nitpicking on my part, but under this plan consumers will still be bound to a list of guaranteed coverage options chosen by the government."

And what budget did the Dems offer last year?

Nancy was really worried about starvation when she jetted around in her govt plane, redecorated her offices etc etc...What a hypocrite.

That same Gospel of Matthew clearly calls for families to care for their own, and not the entire country.
Jim Wallis should try readingit some time.

To the extent that seniors will starve due to budget cuts, you can blame that on the Democrats, who have spent trillions of dollars on things we don’t need, and driven up the debt to $14.5 trillion.

Pelosi: Republican Budget Will Force Seniors Into Starvation

Maybe the starving seniors can eat all the children that the Republican budget will force onto the streets?

So, Holy Nancy, would it be OK for you if you withdrew all of your family’s assets and spent them or gave them away and then continued to use multiple credit cards to spend huge amounts of money you don’t have and can never hope to earn?

Do you hear God telling you to do that? If you are doing it to your country, why aren’t you doing it to your family, too?
