Campus Reform ^

Former Speaker of the House and current Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told an audience of more than 600 college students last week that President Obama has signed many “expansions of freedom” into law since he took office in 2008.

Pelosi, speaking at a youth conference hosted by the George Soros funded Campus Progress, said the President’s work with health care best illustrates his agenda to increase civil liberties for American citizens.

“Central to all is the Affordable Care Act, which we think is about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,” said Pelosi. “A healthier life, for liberty, to pursue your happiness.”

At the conference, Pelosi also argued that America’s founding fathers risked their lives to “create a democracy” where “the voice and the vote and the many determining the outcome of elections.”

forcing Americans to buy what they cannot afford and might not need is now a “civil liberty”?

You are born free. The State cannot award you that, or anything better than that

What hollows out your freedom? The Law, hundreds of rules that restrict, vandalise and ruin personal and commercial freedoms. The Law is the ratchet of the State, it has always been used as a vehicle of oppression and deranged anger, never a vehicle for enhancing anyones freedom

The Law does not protect you or prevent anything. It oppresses you. Period.

Not just a “civil liberty”, but an “expansion of freedom”.

Don’t know if this country can stand many more “civil liberties” or “expansions of freedom”.

took office in 2008?

She is not playing with a full deck. I believe he took office in January 2009. She needs to take some pills and lie down.

I am surprised that horse$h1+ doesn’t fall out of Nancy’s mouth when she opens it . . . but in a way, I guess it does.

I think I have finally figured them out. For them, the definition of Freedom is “The ease with which the government can interfere in your life.” It is the only thing that makes sense. Tyranny would then be the ability of a citizen to say “No” to the government.

She sites 0bamacare (which will kill you), and nothing else. Pelosi then states the U.S. is a democracy.

Poor thing. I really do think it's the botox. Darn stuff has rattled her brain.

“kill more babies” = “expanded freedoms”

It’s hard to understand liberals with these translations....
