In August Speaker Pelosi compared the Tea Party Protesters to the Nazis.
Today she told ABC that she shares the same views as these astroturfed Nazis:
The Note reported:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she has much in common with the Tea Party. The speaker now says she shares views with movement she dismissed last summer as being “Astroturf” — her suggestion that the grassroots of the Tea Party were a creation of the Republican Party.
In a “This Week” interview with ABC’s Elizabeth Vargas, Pelosi said, “We share some of the views of the Tea Partiers in terms of the role of special interest in Washington, D.C., as — it just has to stop. And that’s why I’ve fought the special interest, whether it’s on energy, whether it’s on health insurance, whether it’s on pharmaceuticals and the rest.”
Pelosi held to her skepticism about what is behind the movement. “Some of it is orchestrated from the Republican headquarters,” Pelosi said. She also added that, “Some of it is hijacking the good intentions of lots of people who share some of our concerns that we have about the role of special interests.”

The more Pelosi opens her mouth about us “Teabaggers”, the more stupid she sounds. The only crossover my local group has is when we tell our local Republican party we WILL hold them accountable.
Nice try Nancy.
Saint commented:
She fought special interests by getting into bed with them? Gee, miss Pelosi, I sho’ is glad you so much smarter than me! I woulda thought you need to stand up to ‘em special interests to actually fight ‘em, but I sho’ was wrong!
Major Kong commented:
This woman is absolutely insane. Previous topic about dems falling on swords to pass obamacare followed by this? I’m sitting here shaking my head. It’s as though any pretense to logical thought has been abandoned and the woman is just immediately expressing anything that pops into her delusional mind. Jaw-dropping.

Common ground my white a$$. She is full of donkey sh*t.
AuntieMadder commented:
Seeing the GOP’s somewhat successful attempts to claim the Tea Party as its own, Pelousy sees a missed oppty for herself and Demonrats like her. As Steve @ #1 said, nice try, Nancy, but it’s too late for you now. The only thing you have to offer the Tea Party now is your retirement from Washington politics.
sandy commented:
If Pelosi says she agrees with people she calls Nazis doesn’t that make her a Nazi? Evita Pelosi gets more desperate every minute. Don’t Cry For Me America — Don’t worry we won’t.
sandy commented:
Wasn’t Pelosi going on about Itsy Bitsy Spiders a couple of days ago?
Then there is Good Old Dingy Harry who said at the Summit he never spoke about Reconciliation before. While 2 days earlier he made a whole speech about it.
One year of total power and the Dems are ready for the Booby Hatch.
Please Dear God if you give us a Republican Congress in 10 and a Republican President in 12 I will never ask you for another thing.
sandy commented:
Auntie Madder — How true. Pelosi would love to have the passion and energy of the Tea Partiers on her side. Most of those agreeing with Obama on Healthcare are those who already feed at the Federal Trough. So its hard to get them excited about losing on this issue when they know the Govt. will find a way to take care of them
Major Kong commented:
DemocRat controlled everything. Nothing but one huge charlie-foxtrot.

BurmaShave commented:
Hey, Nancy, while you are at it tell us some lies about how you are concerned about fiscal responsibility, balancing the budget, and reducing taxes…
Nancy likes to say she is an “ardent” Catholic. Ardent comes from the Latin Ardens meaning burning. Yes, I suspect, Nancy, you may very well be ardent especially after Judgment day.
jones commented:
I thought the teabaggers were Nazis? Is Nancy a Nazi?

KR commented:
The birth of the Tea Parties was Nancy’s Stimulus Bill.
That is why she is trying to divert the focus and misinform the people.

Wow. Winston Churchill is describing the entire Obowma machine.
Tomorrow is Day #1 of the HealthScare Ram Down. Can’t wait to see who gets what for their kamikazi vote.
KR commented:
Hmmm…
Does Pelosi foresee the hcb going down in flames and is so desperate to cozy up with those she has insulted, slandered, and turned a blind eye too?
Her efforts are futile. She has already burned that bridge.

I also hear AlGore is trying to back away from his fear mongering claims by saying he made “a few” mistakes.

I think it’s also ungrammatical to use prepositions to end sentences with.
IOpian commented:
If she actually knew anything she would be aware that neither Republicans nor Democrats are free of the TEA movements ire. It’s a conservative movement and not a ‘party’ association. You only need attend one to discover this. She needs to get out of her East Coast and West Coast bubbles more often.
Mike commented:
Clearly, The Democrats can NOT govern. They have all the power any party would need in numbers. However their policies are outside the realm of reality. They make Bush/Cheney look like pure genius. After the next election legal citizens have to consider striping all government workers and the elected of their lifetime benefits.
That will get the attention of the elected.
SirKnob commented:
The woman is a total ditz. If the MSM wasn’t carrying her water, and protecting her from every stupid thing she says, I don’t think even San Francisco would vote her back in.
Of course I could be wrong, she will probably sell her constituents space heaters in hell. You know the media would buy off her.
anon commented:
She probably realizes that the Tea Party is taking away her votes. Too late, Nancy.
Gone are the days of government where the only way you could get info was searching tirelessly, being on the inside, or hoping that some honest journalist would expose corruption. The internet and blogosphere is shining the light on corruption and forcing the government to be transparent (though it isn’t like Obama is cooperating).
Enjoy your jet, Nancy. You may not have it come November.
Chris Vehr commented:
What Pelosi does not understand is that the Democrats AND the Republican control the direction of the Tea Partiers. It’s the over-governing, over-taxing legislation that is offered by both parties that the Tea Partiers despise.
Currently, the Democrats, through their actions, have the most control the Tea Party movement.
Pelosi is a sick, sick woman…and a liar.
BHG commented:
This from a member of a party that hires SEIU thugs for security! Does she have a shred of proof that the Republican Party has donated to any Tea Party group?
KR commented:
Major Kong,
Thanks for the grammar tip :0)
I’ll just leave it as “too”.
Robert commented:
Apparently she can’t fathom that “some of it” is that people just don’t want this level of government intrusion into their daily and personal lives, even though this concept was clearly and explicitly stated at the meeting last week, to say nothing of the fact that these actions are far beyond the scope of federal powers as defined by the Constitution, a concept which she summarily dismissed when asked about that issue by a reporter last month. “Are you kidding?”

BarbaraS commented:
Poor Nancy. Hasn’t got a clue. She doesn’t realize the Tea Party members are at war with her and the rest of the dims in power. She is one of the reasons the whole thing was formed in the first place. And then she has the nerve to say she has a lot in common with them? What, for instance? We all breathe? That would be it. Nothing else.
Guy commented:
Nancy Pelosi is just another liberal, living in her liberal fantasy world. Liberals have worn out the old “if you say something often enough …” thing. It used to work, but now, with the internet, the lies are easier and easier to expose. No matter how many times she says it, she’s NEVER going to convince anyone (except maybe another liberal) that she has ANYTHING in common with tea partiers, patriots, normal Americans, or even human beings for that matter. Every time I look at her, I just keep waiting for that face to fall off and reveal Skeletor or some other evil character underneath. Maybe an alien from some distant world?
She’s an embarrassment to our country. And to think, she’s just two steps from the Presidency … absolutely horrifying.
If the voters don’t throw her out in November, I will have lost all faith in this society ….

Here’s a list of Pelosi’s own “special interests” — a list of her recent campaign donations.
