Nancy Pelosi's Gas Problem

[shack95]

So the Nancy Pelosi lies site says oil was $56 a barrel when she took and now it's $90.

Checking the government records - it was $46.53 when she took office and is now about $68.

Maybe if the Tea Party tried to help improve the Department of Education instead of getting rid of it. They would learn how to do basic research, math and get their facts straight.

[MrWyoming67]

Congratulations America...we are now living in a country ran by special olympians.

[shreim1]

i thought shes going to fart

[brown55061]

What's hilarious is she thinks American politics has anything to do with the price of gas. Crude oil prices determine gasoline production costs. Oil was $147 a barrel and gas costs were over $4.25. Oil prices drop to $45 a barrel and gas drops to $1.70. It's not rocket science. Then again, simple math probably surpasses this twit's brain function.

I still think Nancy is genetics accident by aliens when they tried to create a female cow/human hybrid... who runs on unleaded.

[DONGOE]

Nancy Pelosi is a FOOL !!!

[Wehnman]

Pete Stark and Nancy Pelosi are so out of touch from the "people"....we can do better than this ..... come one "people"

[shack95]

@Wehnman So are the republicans. Has anyone in congress pumped their own gas? Last I heard Boehner has his golf handicap down to 11 - thank god he gets a pay check from my taxes!!

[wherryj]

Does Nancy realize that gas is higher here in CA because of CA's taxes and the requirement for reformulation.

Lower volumes of a product cost more per unit to manufacture.  Perhaps CA's politicians need to look at themselves when they talk about higher prices of gas in their state.

[cranic4444]

She is a total dickhead.

[Vamooska]

Screw that biatch...Hypocritical moron. She is the one that used taxpayer money and bought a brand new jet to fly her greasy butt nonstop to DC. Corrupt Corrupt Corrupt. Go poke that huge nose up Murthas ass.

[Austinbit]

This is the lady that believes successful americans should pay lazy people, in return for hard work. Meanwhile, she adds pork to give her husband and his company a 5 million dollar tax cut.

[shack95]

@Austinbit You mean by successful americans - those same congress republicans who use the inside information from their committees to further their wealth why depriving us of ours?

[Austinbit]

@shack95 No I mean those who use their abilities to produce the very things which keep us alive. ie: medicine, efficient housing, resources, technology in general, etc. In return, I expect - and they do too- that they should be rewarded with an increase in personal wealth.

I dont support- in any way- the abuse of power to destroy the economy. Republican, democrat, independent, I dont care. Overall, the government has no business sticking its fingers in the economy...

read Atlas Shrugged.

[bikersrule07]

is this the same bitch who was complaining that she was made to drive a prius ????? instead of her big ass suv?

[MansManBk]

I invite all ILLEGALS to move right into Nancy's House she will not mind..after all our Immigration Laws are unamerican. so move right in eat her food use her electric use her towels...make yourselves right at home in Nancy Pilosi's house...

[carly35]

IMMIGRATION REFORM NOW!!

[NiemandBinich]

It's funny, but I remember the gas prices really spiking after the Democratic takeover of Congress.

[rickrik00]

This truly awful person wants us all to ride a bike while she rides a private jet PAID FOR BY OUR TAXES!!! Who actually likes this woman? What were HER book sales?

[REDorsey]

Does this half-wit bimbo even have a CLUE how to do math? "3 times what it was" then "2-something" - listen carefully - she is an idiot!

[sixletter]

Nancy, a half-wit gave you a piece of his mind, and you held on to it.

[KansasRangers]

YEAH.,..it is SAD TO SAY that the SERFS in CA have to pay that much MIUAH HA HA HA HA HA HA

[nytbrd]

This woman is scarey! Obama is going to be even worse.....I am planning my move to another country!

[eichone]

This lady needs to be locked away for good!

[56gig]

All the Dems had to do was squeeze middle America's pocketbook just before an election.

It's Jan 09 and gas prices are at their lowest since...Who knows?

Watch as the price creeps up after the anointing.

Fanny, Freddy, AIG, Wall Street, The Big 3 and now 42 states are looking for a bailout.

Government is buying up the banks!

In Government we Trust?

[tuttt99]

What is the Democrat plan? I would sure like to hear it

[UnconcernedCitizen]

Pelosi is a stuffing her bra with corporate money.

[password269]

what a cunt....tell her to ask her limo driver how much gas is!!! why don't you point the finger at yourself you act like you have no control over it YOUR THE PROBLEM BITCH!!!

[americantubester]

she didnt even know how much gas costs, she is a disgrace of an American, I think she is really French,, ah that Evil Bush, its all his fault ,, ha ha ha ha ha wow california, thanks for reminding me why I live in florida now

[password269]

hahahahahahahaha

[JimmyFormerMarine]

Why do you have to use the f word to make your point?

[thunderflash82]

She's been the house leader for how long? If McCain wants to win the election all he has to do is say Pelosi a whole bunch of times and people will remember how truly fucked up democrats are.

[blessedvic]

Dumb and dumber: "I believe in natural gas as a clean, cheap alternative to fossil fuels." —House Speaker Nancy Pelosi **Uh, Nancy, natural gas IS a fossil fuel.

The Patriot Post.

[cabritorsss]

Her answer the other day regarding whether or not life begins at conception is a direct display of her stupidity. As a Catholic, she should be excomunicted for her lies and deciet in the name of political gain. If life doesn't start at comception, like the man asked, why wear a rubber? Pelosi is an embarassment to the church...

[Freetime61]

LMAO...Nancy Pelosi won't even let a debate happen in congress about off shore drilling...Like I have said Democrats are "totalitarians"..70% against homo marriages...democrats do it any ways...70% for off shore drilling...democrats refuse to debate it....Democrats are societal polluters.....so much for democracy. 2 years ago democrats promised to lower feul prices....

[jjcul]

no sorry where i live is about 4.15

[laxmanx5]

those liberals always seem to use bush as an ecape goat. its pretty pathetic. its almost like a catch phrase for them to hate bush

[jjcul]

agreed thumbs up

[password269]

excatly everyone that says that shit all the time doesn't even no what the hell is goin on... BUSH is prob the only name they no in the whole systems they blame him

[AllDixR4Chix]

Them Democrats rely on stupid people to buy into their obvious BULLSHIT!!!

[rugger8541]

it is so typical that the democrats put the most radical left winger as their spokesmoron.

[kingofwale]

Pelosi-

Sad to say. YOU SUCK!!

[nickd4818]

i hate to get worked up about politcians, but this woman is a complete and utter stooge. She couldnt run a lemonade stand let alone congress. i only hope she gets the boot after 08, idk if i can deal with another 2 years of this moron. the botox is rotting her brain.

[Hamstertabbygirll]

impeach pelosi and dems that think like her

[GalacticCabaret2]

She says "sad to say" but the bitch looks all happy about it.

[UnderseaCaveman]

a total kooooonnnnt

[lmagbig23]

what a funny person who does nothing. man our govt. is in shambles.

[jpedwar]

Pelosi is clueless, just like all liberals. The 'Supply and Demand' law of economics totally escapes those people. I almost feel sorry for them, but when they are in power they are dangerous. The Left wants high energy prices when a Republican is in the White House so they can blame Bush. They want campaign issues, not solutions.

[seanarther]

Pelosi's not clueless. She knows exactly what she's doing. She's using her power to shut down Congress to prevent Obama from having to vote on an energy plan before the election. If there's a vote, Obama the waffler is screwed either way--a vote for expanded drilling will alienate his eco-psychotic base, and if he votes against drilling, he is saying fuck you to every "little guy" in the US who can barely afford $4 a gallon for gas. SHE'S DESPICABLE!

[n1kkri]

Gas and oil has gone up when the Democrats

took control. I hate that bitch.

She is dangerous to this Country.

She want to keep gas high for November regardless of how many jobs and familys are

hurt. Bitch one even let drilling come to a vote.

[UGLYSTIKCOLIN]

2.50 no 3.50 god how ignorant can you be to be that wrong?

[tuttt99]

God, I hate that bitch...

[billpm6969]

this woman is a complete idiot...the other day she said that increasing drilling and increasing the supply of oil would in 10 yrs bring down the price of gas 2 cents. Then she took a breath and said that the republicans should get of of the strategic oil reserves to increase the supply of gas to lower the price. THIS WOMAN IS STUPID.

[ramblnman24]

liberals suck the life blood right out of this country! they got the power and will just sit back and watch this great country fall apart!they should be rounded up and thrown in prison for treason!

[dicidec]

wow shes hot im 20 and will still do her hot ass

[whammycam]

Yes!!! Go Nancy Pelosi!

Thank God Someone is telling the TRUTH!

[stars13x]

What a stupid bitch!! Can someone please tell me how this ignorant whore got elected? The Democrats have the majority in the house and have no clue. Vote this stupid bitch out of office! Get your heads out of your asses! NOBAMA!!!!

[a1randy]

from Feckless to Reckless

Nancy Pelosi is a SERIOUS Threat to Our National Security

Fire Her Ass !

[srydecka]

She meant to say 3.50. She's still wrong and tried to pad it down but still its obvious she just said 2 instead of 3.

[Minionuup]

She didn't know what to say.

[burtman17]

Nice blame shifter like all democrats!

[Micaiah2004]

Peelosi is an AIRHEAD...she is plain stupid.

No real plans for a comprehensive energy program for the U.S. at all. GET RID OF THIS DEMONRATS...OBSTRUCTIONISTS

[jeffwoehrle]

Asked what happened to the Democrat's bold plans for 'common-sense' relief, Nancy replies about prices since Bush took office.

Blame shift much?

[ajc55ny]

This woman is so utterly incapable of understanding or caring about gas prices. When an interview by Larry King looks like a flogging, you are hurting! Does a single American NOT know exactly how much gas is costing them? King should have asked Pelosi this: "How high do gas prices need to go before you ok drilling HERE in the USA and offshore?" How high, Ms Pelosi? Or do we have to wait until food cant make it into stores? What an ASSHOLE. Vote all of Congress out this year!! Ds & Rs

[2008incognito]

If you want 4 more years of Republican rule, you are either insane, or a rich corporate embezzler.

[Minionuup]

This is what you sound like when you watch the daily show for news: "evil corporations" "neocons" "culture of corruption", "corporate embezzler".......

[notes08]

Look this is not rocket science.

Stock market was at a record high 15 months ago. The House market started going down the tubes about a year ago and the Recession has started since Democrats have been in control of Congress

Obama is saying the economy is weak. If you look back ever since the Democrats have taken over the Congress in Jan, 2007 it has been going downhill.Obama is trying to make like it is the GOP fault. The Democrat controlled Congress since Jan 2007 has caused Market go down

[ArcticGarlicX2]

The Speaker of Lies is all kindsa messed up.

This we ALL know.

[dogstar7]

In addition to getting cut-rate airfare on his wife's private jet, McCain gets freebie handouts from Republican city administrations on the road:

The McCain campaign was charged $250 to use two rooms in the Homewood Alabama municipal Rosewood Hall, which normally would book for $1,200 on a weeknight.

The campaign also was given free labor from Homewood City Jail inmates to set up tables and chairs for the event, avoiding a $100 set-up fee, but did pay a standard $50 cleaning fee.

[birdyb24]

The problem isn't her misstatement, it's that she ran on a platform and hasn't accomplished a single thing. Congress has the lowest approval ratings in history b/c they haven't done squat. She said she'd fix gas prices, she hasn't. They've gotten worse. And, they've created new problems with their policies - rising food prices and riots b/c of ethonal, a slowing economy (as predicted b/c of higher taxes, minimum wage, and increased regulation). Sure, the repubs made mistakes, but dems =nightmare

[onemanband1963]

The NRCC is in no position to disparage others.

[mykol13v]

So, your Democrats are untouchable Saints?

Even your front runners are fighting and no one looks happy with either. This state goes this way, that state goes that. Flip-flop. Defined by color, race, and creed. Who has the better marxist plan.

Everyone is hinged on the better soundbite pandering of the day and who can disparage the other one the best. Your candidates look disconnected from their actual character. A persona non-display. All we have to do is expose them as they really are.

[Toxxic88]

...And I thought Bush was bad

[Eudoxio80]

She doesn't know simple math. She said it's 3 times than what it was when Bush took office ($1 something) and then she says $2.56. 1 times 3 is 3. $1 something times 3 is $3 something. How come her average is less than 3?

We have too many hypocrites running our government. They are mostly doing it for the money. We need honest leaders who speak the truth and have high moral standards. You can be the role model.

Hope you can help in your community.

/watch?v=zbR4jXfQqVU

[undocumentedspot]

How about we assume, she just misspoke? no and this is not sarcasm, she is talking on interview, she might wanted to say $3.56, but instead said 2.56, when he corrected her saying 3.50 she said down 6 cents, which imply she believed she said 3.56, so instead of making big deal of it, one should focus on the meaning anyway, but nice for a laugh or parody, but not for political advantage, cuz it is worthless.

[roodaddyroo]

That'd be convenient however just watch her face, just watch how VERY uncomfortable she is as SOON as he starts talking about the topic. See that squirming? That's "Oh no, here it comes" uneasyness. Besides that - that's not what she said. What she said was national average was 2.56 and 3.56 in Cali. HUH?

[undocumentedspot]

Are you watching different video? I don't see any squirming or uneasiness when he corrected her. I don't like her, but I don't hate her, what i see is a video of a common problem that can happen to any of us, one thinks of something and speak another thing different. This kind of thing can be categorized as blooper, it can happen to anyone, However, I could be wrong and you're right, but I lean to interpret as that, her quick answer shows her confidence that she said 3:56

[DrPhucker]

You're a scrotum. She's uneasy because she doesn't know what the fuck she's doing. Gas is now $3.71 here in Seattle! Since the Dems have been in power we have inflation like we haven't seen in decades! And you're defending her? FUCK YOU! She has no solutions! None of the Democrats have solutions, just empty promises!

[undocumentedspot]

dumbass, I already said I'm not defending her, how stupid are you not to get that? I'm only talking about the claim that she didn't know the oil price, I don't care if Pelosi said that or Bush, or dumbass, I'm just commenting about this video. I'm not even American, and don't drag us into your demo-republican hatred. and by the way, what do you think if someone said oil prices went up since Bush took office?

[DrPhucker]

Stop fucking men up the ass. That's gross.

[Minionuup]

Japan has its own mess. We don't need to her it from you.

[undocumentedspot]

I'm not Japanese and i never mentioned Japan in my comment. Should the world tell Americans the same thing? since Americans comment on every video. "America has its own mess. We don't want to her [sic] it from you". I think everybody has right to speak and comment on any country issue.

[schell939]

We need to get rid of big business in collusion with big government, and get rid of the federal reserve who keeps inflating our currency.

Anyone with half a brain can see that the price of oil has stayed the same when you compare it to the price of gold. But it has tripled compared to our currency.

The politicians are dodging the tough questions, its our responsibility to ask them. Get out there and do something about it!

[RedneckResponder]

I'm sure enlightened Dems will still re-elect her.

[look2leap4]

$2.56 on the average? $3.50 they are saying?

WTF They should STFU if they don't know what they're talking about. Honestly, they haven't pumped their own gas since the fucken 60's. We can not expect these people to fix our problems when they can't understand what we're going through. THIS IS FUCKEN PATHETIC EVERYDAY IT GETS WORSE. NOTE TO SELF: Keep going to work things will get better.

[micsc50]

lying bitch licking her lips and chewing her cud she is leading the worst congress in history and blames everything on bush.

[nukedude2]

AIRHEAD.

[DonSimonBolivar]

This women didn't do jack shit she needs to get fired!

[PaulWatsonisgreat]

It's still too cheap.

Enjoy what you can while you can. We're all fucked.

the price of petrol in Iraq is 5 cents a gallon.

Ron Paul

[mykol13v]

What price do they sell on the world market? Could it be... market prices? Just because Dems have a plan, doesn't mean its a good one. Our media is in the tank for this Dem Congress and Dems want to punish us by raising tax-on-gas so we don't drive. Dem plunking our hard earned cash on bio-fuels, proven to be more costly to produce than worth and shrinks world food markets.

[bfayer]

its funny seeing republicans bitch about nancy, wait until they are out of the white house and then it'll get even better.

[Unkn0wnGuy]

This woman cares only about her own legacy and that's it. Throw the bums out.

[dustynbones]

The Democrats allowed the REPIGZ to deregulate the Oil Corporations, and disregard the Sherman Act.

How can America Boycott gasoline?

We can't

[mykol13v]

dereg causes more competition. When you have more resources in the market, it brings down the price. Example: Computers. Our problem is that controlled state entities control our oil imports and OPEC determines price. The leftist friend Hugo Chavez sends us loads of oil, but a what cost?

Our objective should be to bring competition like nuclear plants, hydrogen cells, electric cars and dump this idiocy in the Boston harbor.

[5uper5tring]

gas is 8 bucks a gallon in the EU

[wildcardalan]

She can't help it if she's stupid...She's a Democrat.

[mykol13v]

Come on, be nice... Ronald Reagan was a Democrat once. In fact most Republicans were former Democrats. I could name thousands besides myself.

[mykol13v]

Bio-Fuels, closing ANWR, tax-on-gas, strict environmental controls, catalytic converters, MTBE, stopping nuclear plants, no coastal drilling off California, restricting oil industry expansion, no coastal drilling of New England. We could have had electric cars years ago, invented late 1800s. RFID Restriction of resources and freedom. Riots in 3rd world countries, can't eat. Our "saviors" -the same people who caused the trouble want re-election. We're idiots and deserve the politicians we elect.

[67krugar]

True or not,nobody gives a flying fuck about california...including your asshole governor.

[WeAreAllAlone]

omfg...how did America get to choose sooooo many idiotic politicians lately. Are they fucking blind and death??

[WeAreAllAlone]

meant to say def, not death :-p

[1masfarero]

Yeah the next one they'll choose would probably be Mcain-Oldie can't even differentiate Al_Queada sunnis from shiites.

[patsagainstrats]

Like Obama, Pelosi is a disconnected elitist.

[BUDDAWG2004]

i thought the dems ran on high gas prices to get voted into the house?good to see they have acomplished their goal

[DisposableAccount174]

She has her servants fill her tank.

[DisposableAccount174]

Why doesn't he ask her to implement her 'commonsense plan' for cryin' out loud - Larry, you're a friggin moron!

[JakeandElwoodBlues]

Pelosi "...now it's $2.56 on average..."

King "It's $3.50 they're saying now."

Pelosi "$3.50, oh it's down six cents."

LOL! And this woman is Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, second in line for the Presidency!

[mykol13v]

Funny Stuff, yes. Interview screw-up aren't the problem, the problem is the Dems restrictions on our natural resources. These people actually want higher taxes on gas so we won't drive as much. Restricting our businesses and pleasure. They won't build nuclear plants so we could have cheaper electricty to run electric cars and mass transportation. They won't let exploration off the coast of California, ANWR, and New England just to see if we have more resources.

Love to live in cave? vote Dems.

[xantastic67]

Bravo! T

[beatbaker]

You must listen to right wing radio... Are you THAT devoid of critical thinking? Do you not get it? Ever heard of OPEC and market manipulation? Do you understand that it was your fucking moronic republican vote that put an OIL MAN in the White House? Are you really that stupid to believe that oil and nuclear power are our only options? Did you honestly believe oil prices would go down under Bush? Please do not vote this year...Our country can't afford another one of your right wing fuck-ups.

[mykol13v]

Oil men aren't the problem, it is the restriction of resourses. Most oil on the markets comes from state owned resources then the price is set mostly by OPEC. It is based on what we are willing to pay and how much it damages our economy. You see, if we can't pay they can't sell. You don't vote anytime anymore pal. Your Clinton and Carter jacked up the foreign policy. Carter with Iran and Clinton with the Islamofascist terrorists. We when you have a weak kneed response, amimals can sense it.

[Del1720]

its 3.50 where i am.

[SamFreedom]

If you eff up on Larry King's cotton candy show, you are REALLY messed up!

[budavolthesewermigge]

Lying bitch!

[Pelter1]

What a blithering farkin idiot!

[Meatpieandtatters]

This woman is the poster child for post-birth abortion.

[oidad]

two dollars and fifty-six cents a gallon?

ROFLMAO

"Gas for me, not for thee"

when do you suppose was the last time this idiot had a pump handle in her hand... maybe never? she should have been briefed by her car coolie before the show.

[mykol13v]

She flys herself and her people to Washington and back to California on a private jet at mostly public expense. She really has no need to see a gas pump being rich, too.

[dogstar7]

On April 15 Republican presidential candidate John McCain proposed a "gas tax holiday" from Memorial Day to Labor Day.

The gas tax is used only for the Highway Trust Fund, which maintains the nation's transportation infrastructure. Such a "holiday" would eliminate billions nationally for investments in infrastructure at a time when, especially in light of last year's Minnesota bridge calamity, such investment is already below where it needs to be.

[Craigbe]

"Investments in infrastructure" sounds suspiciously like gummint-speak. Minnesota, like most states, ran a SURPLUS of highway money. But, like most states, the politicians spent the money on bike-paths and other such nonsense to buy votes from those that won't/cant understand complex things like budgeting, instead of meeting obligations, like maintenance. Dumb down the populace, and sell them ANYTHING!

Reducing government by 90% is the only answer. Our Founders understood this!

[dogstar7]

Typical GOP reaction; throw the victims under the bus.

Having a close lobbyist adviser like Charles Black working with his campaign who has been paid $570,000 in lobby fees from General Motors, gives this powerful automobile interest a close ally with strong influence on McCain's policies.

No wonder McCain hasn't said anything about alternative fuel and CAFE regulations.

[twinturbo95mr2]

McCain talks about moving away from oil all the time. General Motors has more alternative fuel vehicles than any other manufacturer and I don't think you want to start talking about lobbyists because Obama has taken hundreds of thousands of dollars from lobbyists who work for Exxon and Chevron.

[dogstar7]

"...Obama has taken hundreds of thousands of dollars from lobbyists who work for Exxon and Chevron."

Lie!

Obama's biggest single source of corporate money - $160,000 - came from (personal donations from) executives at Exelon Corp., the nation's largest nuclear power provider, and its subsidiary, Commonwealth Edison, an Illinois utility.

[dogstar7]

In 2007 alone, Sen. McCain received $291,658 from the oil and gas industry. McCain missed all three critical clean energy votes in 2007. His absences aided big oil because opponents of oil industry tax breaks needed a super majority of 60 votes to pass the provision to close the loopholes, regardless of the number of Senators who voted.

[mykol13v]

Don't gas taxes go into the General Fund type of pool to be spread around, and were trillions in debt now? Why don't we just add another trillion in new taxes in a economic downturn and see if we can bring on a recession? Sound good, Jimmie Carter? This McCain could be the new Reagan.

[dogstar7]

The head of the U.S. Dept. of Transportation stated on 15 August 2007 that about 60% of federal gas taxes are used for highway and bridge construction. The remaining 40% goes to other, unrelated uses. However, revenues from other taxes is also used in federal transportation programs.
