Pelosi: Democrats 'stand tall in support' of Obamacare

By REID J. EPSTEIN | 11/17/13 10:52 AM EST

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says House Democrats running in 2014 will embrace the Affordable Care Act in their re-election campaigns.

Appearing Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” the California Democrat declined to say whether the issue would help Democrats win a House majority but said there'll be no abandoning health care as a campaign issue.

“I don’t think you can tell what will happen next year, but I will tell you this, Democrats stand tall in support of the Affordable Care Act,” she said. “We have great candidates who are running who are concerned bout our economy, are concerned about government shutdown.”

Pelosi said the economy will be the primary focus of next year’s campaign.

Of health care, she said: “This is an issue that has to be dealt with, but it doesn’t mean, ‘Oh, it’s a political issue so were going to run away from it.’

I wonder if stretching one’s face would work as a form of torture to make people talk.

As for democrats not running from obamacare, I doubt they will. But they will talk about the lousy economy and neither will hurt them. Their voters are retards.

“Democrats stand tall”

A better description would be “WALKING SMALL”

Delusional. The ‘rats are jumping from that sinking ship. Trying to salvage their re-elections. Which, of course, is all that matters to them.

Pelosi takes the “proud” meme to new heights of absurdity. Whenever I see the word “proud,” I think, “Hmm. This person is embarrassed about something and protests too much.” Not to even mention the fact that it’s one of the seven deadly sins. But what does Pelosi know of such things? She’s just flaunting her knowledge of a military phrase and sullying further the mess that is the CACA.

I love San Francisco and the Bay area. It’s a beautiful part of the country filled with great restaurants and lovely scenery. Unfortunately, it’s also full of braindead lefties like Pelosi. She’s just one of many clueless wonders walking around northern California.

I hope they stand behind it. People are now becoming aware of waht is in it and how it will affect them. As they do, they grow a little bitter. Let us hope that by the election, the discontent will be sufficient to defeat the democrats.

That brainiac doesn’t know America like she thinks she does.

Maybe not, but she knows San Fagscisco. That tactic will work just fine there.

And she pushed that bill more than anybody. She's a psychotic drug addled b*tch who should be in prison and nowhere near anything resembling an office in politics. I wouldn't even put in her charge of flushing my toilet never mind repping me. Look at this, this is how cocaine addicts act while they are high on cocaine:

The socialist democrats are walking in lockstep with their policies, just like their soul kindred did all over innocents in Germany.

All they need are some catchy marching tunes.

You do that Nancy girl, sing it loud and proud. Don’t ever stop reminding the American people that your party owns this fluster cluck.

Heck, I’ll even help you.

I want them all to stand tall in defense of it, too. There 's no better way to tell their constituents, "We don't give a large mammal's behind about you and your travails. We're here for our gratification and glorification."

I’m seeing San Fran Nan having a chest-off with herself in front of a San Francisco Fun House mirror-—the one that makes her tall. She’s been nuts since she got lost in the mirror maze and there just ain’t no cure for her kind of stupid.

Standing tall enough to kiss someone’s ass is not standing tall.

Might not know America, but she sure knows San Francisco, which is why she can say ANYTHING she wants with no recrimination.
