Stop picking on Pelosi, she may cry

A serious attack on Pelosi ( not just saying, "She's from San Francisco. Boo!" ) would be a feat because she has an amazingly clean record for a pol, with no dirt at all. Many have tried to dig up dirt on her, and all have failed.

Air Pelosi Scandal

In March 2009, Judicial Watch received documents from the Department of Defense detailing Nancy Pelosi's abuse of a system which provided military aircraft for the transportation of the Speaker of the House. The documents, which were acquired through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), detail the attempts by DOD staff to accommodate Pelosi's numerous requests for military escorts and military aircraft as well as the speaker's last minute cancellations and changes.

Very clever video. Too bad it is supported and promoted by right wing morons.

Oh the CIA waterboarding thing, I'm pretty sure CIA officials have come out and admitting they don't always tell the truth to lawmakers.

The supposed Pelosi scandal here was when she accused the CIA of lying and every critic was offended. "How can she be questioning the good natured souls at the CIA who fight to protect our nation?" was the refrain.

But the CIA aren't as innocent as the Pelosi critics suggested. They really do lie, and the critics came off completely naïve by suggesting the CIA is always good and would never do anything wrong.

The CIA is one of many organization that protect and work in the best interests of the U.S. They are most of the time allowed to lie in order to do their job. Pelosi is not one of them, nor is she the President. Nancy Pelosi is a elected official reporting to the people. I know there aren't many politicians who follow these principles.

So, what's the problem? If you admit the CIA lies, then it's not all that shocking they would lie to her. So Pelosi could be telling the truth.

The Tim Burns candidate that the OP ad is referring to is a Republican candidate for a special election to the US House of Representatives. The election is tomorrow, and it's to fill the vacant seat from Pennsylvania's 12th district.

I'll call it now: Tim Burns WILL NOT win that election.

After her political history, I would not believe her if she had a halo over her. I would believe the CIA before her. (I know where there coming from)

Okay, whatever political past she has that makes you think this, which you haven't really specified, the CIA has admitted to misleading lawmakers, and Pelosi says she was misled by them.

So what political history does she have that makes you not believe her even if she had a halo over her?

I ask you this because like I said earlier, Pelosi is notorius for being clean and frustrating critics who want to dig up dirt on her.

Here's several examples of Pelosi critics being frustrated when they can't anything on her.

Sliming Pelosi | FactCheck.org


This page leaves out one of my favorites though: A few years back, someone tried to claim that Pelosi employs illegal immigrants to work on California grape vineyards she owns. It's true that she owns vineyards, but the illegal immigrant stuff turned out to be this person concluding (1) illegal immigrants in California work in agriculture; (2) Pelosi owns some argiculture business in California. Therefore, Pelosi employs illegal immgrants. And this person started a search trying to find some illegal, any illegal, to prove the point.
