House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat, said Tuesday that a large segment of the GOP is “anti-government, anti-science and anti-Obama” and that while Democrats opposed much of President George W.

“What’s interesting to me is that Democrats and Republicans know what they believe,” Mrs. Pelosi said on MSNBC’s “The Daily Rundown.” “They know what they believe, and that’s what’s happening in Congress … what’s happening here now is we have a large segment of the Republican party that is anti-government. We don’t want any more government than we need, but they’re anti-government, anti-science and anti-Obama.”
“They have a trifecta that is going,” she continued. “Now, I say to the Republicans: Take back your party … you come with confidence with the debate that goes on and try to influence the decision, but to obstruct every initiative that the president’s put forth on jobs and then say, ‘Why don’t we have more jobs?’ We do have more jobs, but no thanks to the Congress of the United States.”

And like North Korea, she NEEDS quite a bit of government.
Boy she is getting more ugly each hour.
This sounds trite, but I wonder, is she just stupid? Or is she medicated- and with what?
I think she reminds us that she was once two away from the presidency. I knw shed be better than what we’ve got in there, but, just whoah!
Stand in the emergency room waiting for Viagra patients who are experiencing an erection longer than 4 hours?

We've never done that with Obama.
Stalinists lie. ALWAYS.
Quite stunning? You mean like filibustering virtually every Bush judicial appointment for eight friggin years??
“they’re anti-government, anti-science and anti-Obama”
Well, the Dems are anti-Christian, anti-capitalism, and anti-American. . . . and that’s far worse than anti-government and anti-Obama.

Sounds exactly like Chuck Schummer las week.
The Rats are very worried that they are going to loose the Senate and a bunch of lame Republicans who have been giving them cover.
Today’s media are simply scribes for the Oligarch.
What a lie. As soon as we got to Baghdad we toppled Sadam. Once the looting started they immediately undermined President Bush and the war. From then on it was all down hill.
And she was this daft while speaker of the house. She is an idiot
She definitely misses GWB.

Someone should take a screen shot of the “face stretching” scene from the movie “Brazil,” and photoshop Nasty’s face into it!
Where’s her big gavel now?
