Nancy Pelosi is outraged: ‘We did not treat President Bush this way’
Washington Times ^ | 1-28-14 | David Sherfinski

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. Bush’s agenda, Republican obstruction to President Obama is “something quite stunning.”

“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.”

Later Tuesday morning, House Speaker John A. Boehner, Ohio Republican, said the GOP-led House has sent “dozens” of jobs bills to the Democratic-controlled Senate only to see them languish, and offered to work with the president on a number of issues.

“The president says he wants to make this a year of action,” Mr. Boehner told reporters. “Well, it sounds good, but … let’s work together to pass trade promotion authority that would expand exports and create more jobs in America. Let’s work together on building the Keystone Pipeline and the tens of thousands of jobs that would be created as a result.”

“Let’s work together, find common ground on the dozens of House-passed jobs bills that are sitting over in...

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) will bring the Senate in for a series of pro forma sessions over the next two weeks in order to avoid recess appointments by President Bush.

The Senate's top Democrat, Harry M. Reid of Nevada, called President Bush a "loser" yesterday just about the time Air Force One was touching down on foreign soil. Reid immediately called the White House to express regret.The remark violated the restraint that the opposition party customarily exercises when a president is abroad and reflected the acrid environment on Capitol Hill as Republicans prepare to change a rule that lets Democrats use delaying tactics to block the confirmation of judges.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is receptive to the idea of prosecuting some Bush administration officials, while letting others who are accused of misdeeds leave office without prosecution, she told Chris Wallace in an interview on "FOX News Sunday."

And that was after 5 minutes of searching......

Ms Pelosi you are a lying sack of crap. You, the media and every liberal in America, treated President Bush like a rug and stepped on him every chance you got.

She is correct.

The democrats did not treat George Bush anywhere NEAR as decently and respectfully as the republicrats treat Obama.

“While some people think that dissent is unpatriotic, I would argue that dissent is the highest form of patriotism.”
- Howard Zinn (far-left liberal historian)

“I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you’re not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration.”
- Hillary Clinton (2003)

Conway Zirkle, a science historian, had quite a bit to say about the corruption of science by politics — and none of it was nice.

I’m not sure where Nancy Pelosi has been living all her life, but most Americans have always been anti-government and pro-individual as a general attitude.

The very concept of Government is naturally offensive to a free man, as Government is nothing more than force.

Furthermore If the level of force now utilized by the federal government was needed then it would have existed at the founding, and not have been created by subsequent politicians to buy support.
