What many Americans voted for in November, 2008:

If there’s any politician who deserves the Presidential Medal of Freedom the least, it would be Nancy Pelosi.
Pelosi is a radical abortion activist who has pushed abortions up to birth for decades. She’s trashed pro-life Americans repeatedly, refused to acknowledge the humanity of unborn children, and did her level best to push taxpayer funded abortions on Americans time and time again.
But perhaps the worst thing Pelosi has ever done is deny a vote on a bill to stop infanticide and protect babies who survive abortions.
Not only did she block a vote on one of the most common sense bills Congress could ever vote on, she blocked a vote 80 different times. Over and over again, day after day, Republicans a few years ago requested a vote on a bill to protect babies from infanticide. But day after day Pelosi, when she was Speaker of the House, refused to allow a vote.
That didn’t stop Biden from giving her Americas highest civilian award.
“The Presidential Medal of Freedom, our nation’s highest civilian award — we the people doing what we can to ensure the idea of America, the cause of freedom, shines like the sun to light up the future of the world,” Biden said of the medal in a video promoting the award to Pelosi.
Rep. Ann Wagner condemned Pelosi’s actions at the time.
“Pelosi directed House Democrats to block one specific piece of legislation over and over. Democrats designated one person to stand up and object, every single day, when Republicans tried to bring this bill to the House floor,” she said.
What legislation could possibly make Pelosi and House Democrats so afraid that they’d go out of their way to avoid even voting on it—after blocking it more than 80 times in total?
The answer is both surprising and distressing: The bill was the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. The Born-Alive Act simply says that a baby who survives an abortion deserves the same degree of medical care as any other newborn—it is a commonsense bill that is narrow in scope, saves lives, and addresses a real problem.
Of course, Democrats might then be forced to acknowledge that every baby is a human being. And so long as Democrats are beholden to pro-abortion radicals for funding, votes, and media cover, they will do everything in their power to prevent the Born-Alive Act from coming to the House floor for a vote or being passed into law.
The Presidential Medal of Freedom was established in 1963 by President John F. Kennedy. It replaced the Medal of Freedom established by President Harry S. Truman in 1945, which honored individuals who rendered significant aid to the U.S. in World War II.
It is the highest civilian award in the nation and is intended to recognize “any person who has made an especially meritorious contribution to (1) the security or national interests of the United States, or (2) world peace, or (3) cultural or other significant public or private endeavors.”
They have the same mind. And both are pit dwellers. Both have a dictator mentality.
The Republican leadership has embraced abortion and homosexuality… so let’s sweep this n front of our own door first.
What kind of mother would not sacrifice her life for her child?? Who would want a mother who wouldn’t as a wife??
The Republican Party is still pro lockdown and pro big pharma.
They left me. They keep funding it… their leadership doesn’t use the purse strings for any good, instead they fund every Marxist dream and gave them mail in ballots.
No remorse, no second thoughts.
Why do democrats feel the need to receive awards, it’s like the oscars and shows like that, they love to be honored by themselves. Normals dont give a shit.
The democrats “Mutual Admiration Society” is like the Hollywood movie culture.
They heap accolades on each other and give each other awards to validate their opinions of how important they are to the world.
They are totally blind to the fact that their self-serving awards have no meaning or value to most people outside their cliques.
It made Nancy feel young again, having some guy sniff her hair, grope her and hold her hand - even if he is the creepy, really old guy . . .
A lifetime achievement award for best baby killer.
Nan I only have 30 million but I’ll catch up with you by the end on my term.
