Nancy Pelosi skilled in art of political warfare

After 25 years in Washington, nearly half of it as the highest-ranking woman in American politics, Nancy D'Alesandro Pelosi has learned the art of when to attack and when to pull back.

The Democratic House minority leader, in an interview in her hometown last week, was asked about former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown's recent comment that President Obama has "lost his mojo" on the campaign trail and shows "no life, no personality and no real enthusiasm."

Her answer was typically diplomatic.

"I don't agree," she said. "I love Willie, but maybe he hasn't been to any of the public events" of the president, who visited the Bay Area last week for three fundraisers and returns Wednesday to San Francisco for another pair.

Pelosi dismisses grumbling that Obama is spending too much time vacuuming up money in the nation's political ATM - and virtually no time meeting with average voters, taking questions or talking policy in the state.

"People shouldn't be insulted" by the president's focus on money, she said. "He'll do something."

The San Francisco congresswoman - more than almost any Democrat with the exception of Obama - knows the value of a fundraising dollar in blue-leaning California.

Carla Marinucci just planted a big sloppy wet kiss on Nancy Pelosi’s posterior.

Melt her down and recover the fiberglass...

"People shouldn't be insulted" by the president's focus on money, she said. "He'll do something."

Oh, he'll do something alright. Problem is he's done too much already.

Yes, and that's her pathetic claim to greatness.

Surreal. Tell me Carla... What color is the sky in your world?

[Lazamataz]

I went to the link. I figured, hell, maybe I'd learn something new. After all, journalists are in the business of informing and bringing out new information.

I want my 2 minutes back. They are gone, and there was nothing there but soft fawning.

There is no journalism in America. There hasn't been for decades.

So was pol pot and al capone... but like both of them... pelosi is of satan.

[Starboard]

Skilled in political warfare and fundraising...but devoid of any real skills in leadership or responsible fiscal management. Pure political hacks like Pelosi and others of her ilk just milk the system for their own personal benefit.

ANY of us could be “skilled” in political warfare if we had the lamestream glossing over lying with impunity. If sanfrannan were truly “reported” on, she would be shown wanting and discarded.

Skilled in the art of political warfare?

[Daffynition]

Ahhhhh... but does she Hang With the Communists? like Rosa DeLauro?

Nazi Pelosi skilled in art of promoting utter BS.

Fixed it.

[A message]

To Democrats a liar is considered someone skilled in politics.

Read about a rat congresswoman whose husband is a doctor and she voted for the Obamacare monstrosity anyway because she was afraid Nancy would “punish me” if she broke ranks.

How disgusting is this!

I don’t know how Pelosi gets people to go against their conscience but apparently she’s good at it.

[blueunicorn6]

“I love Willie” - Nancy Pelosi.

Then free him! Free Willie, Nancy!

Because it’s what the democrat party does for a living.And over tax the ones who don’t donate.

[itsahoot]

Yes, and that's her pathetic claim to greatness.

She just said that SCOTUS will not overturn OCare, because she knew the Constitution, whatever that is.

[MasterGunner01]

The sheer creepiness and ugliness of these scum boggles rational thought.

I don't want you folks who *don't* live in Connecticut to be jealous...but besides bragging rights to Chris Dodd and Rosa DeLaura our wannabe Obamaesque Governor has arranged: that the State Bond Commission, which is chaired by the governor himself, will authorize a $300,000 grant to the New Haven People's Center, a building which houses the headquarters for the Connecticut Communist Party. The governor's spokesperson has stated that the grant is being awarded primarily because of the building's historical significance, yet it seems to me that there are hundreds if not thousands of historically significant properties in Connecticut which are in need of improvement. Why should this one be any different? To make matters worse, it's a building used by an actual political party. The state does not subsidize the headquarters of the Connecticut Republicans or the Connecticut Democrats, so why would we subsidize this building?

DeLauro is in bed with the Communist Party in CT.
