With the threat of a government shutdown looming over a conservative battle to defund Obamacare, tensions on Washington are reaching a fever pitch. It was with that likely in mind when Nancy Pelosi opened up to POLITICO about Republican hatred of President Obama. She said she’s never seen anything quite like it before, and surmised that Republicans can’t stand Obama because he’s “eloquent” and “effective.”
Mike Allen asked Pelosi if the hatred is more “personal” than normal. Pelosi threw out this argument for why the GOP hates Obama so much.
“He has a vision for our country. He’s brilliant, has knowledge of the issues and judgment about what the right path would be, respectful of other people’s views, he thinks in a strategic way in how to get something done… and he’s complete eloquent to convey a message to the American people. That’s a package that they don’t like.”
She also added, “Look at me, I’m effective, I’m a target,” claiming she is also the target of a lot of GOP hatred because of how much she’s got done.
When Allen asked if she thought race factored into it, Pelosi simply answered, “You’d have to ask them.”

He's acting like a middle school bully who got beat up by the high school kid. Now he's just going to be meaner to the the Republicans in his own school yard.

Make up your mind!! You maggots have already told us it’s because he’s black.
I have never found him eloquent. Or brilliant.
I can’t believe people actually think this.
He sounds like a dolt. He drones on when he speaks, and he’s very unsure of what to say. Perhaps that’s because he can’t reveal what he really thinks - has to mask everything.
Obama - the only man in the world who can speak Austrian.
And see South Carolina from the Gulf of Mexico...
He’s the kind of black man you don’t feel afraid of.

Well, “WE” might not be afraid of him but we definitely are in the minority.
They may not be afraid of him in the true sense but they definitely are afraid of his wrath and him dropping the “R” word on them.
I kind of figured the aura of the Blacks would have pretty much held firm in ‘12 BUT I figured the ‘guilty whites would have gotten the word and not voted for him’.
Of course Rove and Co pushing Romney on us didn’t help, then when Romney ‘shut down’ after destroying everyone in the R primaries.
At least Hillary got a job as Sec State for ‘laying down’, I wonder what it cost ‘them’ to buy off Romney....who definitely had practice ‘throwing’ an election BUT he got Gov of MA for that effort....
I read that title and saw: “Effeminate”. I need glasses.
She got the first part right, republicans can’t stand him.
However she is way wrong on the second part....
It’s because he’s a narcissistic, Kenyan sodomite.
If zero is so eloquent, why is he unable to speak a coherent thought without a teleprompter (not to mention the zillions of “uh”s he utters even when using a teleprompter).
And if he’s so effective, why is our country faltering. Oh, maybe Nancy IS right... he’s been very effective at destroying our liberty and our country.
um, a, er, that is, a, um, er a,........
I can’t stand him because of his matchless hubris, along with his incessant and compulsive lying and obfuscating.
Hey Puke....we can’t stand him AND you because we hate MARXISTS and people that are RUINING this country.
Joe”Bite Me’s”assessment of OBOZO??????????????????
Pelosi forgot to say it’s because they are racists. Or did the race card finally get played out?
I’m surprised Nancy can say anything since her head is in Barry’s crotch all the time.
