Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) today called for an investigation of those opposing the mosque being planned for construction a block away from the site of the September 11, 2001, terror attacks on New York City that toppled the Twin Towers at the World Trade Center complex in lower Manhatten and killed nearly 3000 people.
Speaking to reporters in San Francisco, Pelosi at first deferred to New Yorkers on the mosque, calling it an "urban development question" for them to decide.
"I think everybody respects the right of people in our country to express their religious beliefs on their property. The decision though as to how to go forward in New York is up to New York," Pelosi said.
Pelosi reiterated that New Yorkers should decide in response to a follow-up question about Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) differing with President Barack Obama on the construction of the mosque, but then launched into a brief tirade against being questioned on the mosque and demanded an investigation be made into the opposition to the mosque.
"There is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some. And I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded. How is this being ginned up that here we are talking about Treasure Island, something we've been working on for decades, something of great interest to our community as we go forward to an election about the future of our country and two of the first three questions are about a zoning issue in New York City," hissed Pelosi.
Audio of Pelosi's comments was posted by KCBS-AM-FM which ignored Pelosi's call to investigate the opposition to the mosque in its summary of her remarks--likewise for the San Francisco Chronicle.
Pelosi likes investigations so much....she is going to love the one that will be conducted on her activities.
She is a disgrace and a traitor to this country.
I’m against the mosque, Nazi, you beeeyotch! Investigate this (from a distance, you skanky liberal moron).
Just posted a similar article from the Washington Times. This needs to go viral! Pelosi is INSANE!
This is the insanity of a broken system. This arrogant woman can say anything, do anything, act anyway she pleases and because her district is comprised of left-wing psychopaths who adore anything anti-America, she continues to get re-elected over and over again.
Please feel free to share this with all.
Dissent is unpatriotic,
Joe Biden >> Paying taxes is patriotic.
yada...yada...yada.
Exactly. She is completely clueless. Let’s see where the funding for the mosque is coming from instead. You’ll never see this traitorous witch call for that investigation. I cannot wait to see her relinquish that gavel. The worst Speaker this country has ever seen.
Your comment made me laugh out loud this morning! Let me know when you’re getting your highlights done so I can get mine done right beside you! :)

Excellent. Thanks!
How else would a snake like Pelosi respond?
Huh? Ok Pelosi- let's say the American people are a ship's crew and you're the second in command of the ship. What would the crew do to you?
I propose a mosque on the Pelosi Vineyards. She could offer it up to soothe dissent.
somebody needs to **** her, right in the ****.
Audio and story line are going viral on Twitter
Pelosi is as dumb as a box of rocks. However, this analogy insults both the box and the rocks.
Hey Nancy, you witch, why don’t you investigate where the funds for the mosque are coming from...can you say Saudis?
Just following your Treasure Island theme...
Visions of Nanzi dangling from the yardarm,
giant gavel handle sticking out of her a$$...
Well, her girlfriend will like it.
