Flagged for existing...

[sparky41684]

[MayoMcCheese]

Pelosi makes Biden seem intelligent.  Biden makes Obama seen intelligent. Obama makes a box of rocks seem intelligent.

[designtoad]

Has all the facts, but no intelligence. Kick her out.

[jfktwo]

This so-called female is so inadequate it is shameless, get her out of there pleaseeee! Bolton has more intelligence in his little finger than Pelosi could ever have privy if she was schooled by the world's best from there, here and through to eternity!!

[kevstir]

A reptilian shape shift??

[MaddogLIB]

"I can fly a private jet funded by tax dollars, but will ridicule those who fly one owned by a private company. What an idiot "

No, the idiot would be your dumbass that repeats this nonsense just because you where told to think this. If you cannot see the difference and recognize the spin, you are a total dumbass.

[ghall88]

[ghall88]

I can fly a private jet funded by tax dollars, but will ridicule those who fly one owned by a private company. What an idiot

[allahwasafag]

Nancy is a cunt.

[endofinnovation]

Iraq all the way in 1991-2, Zimbabwe in 2000-01 and Myanmar in 2007

that is the western arc of egalite, fraternite y liberte

instead we are left with Iraq and Afghanistan until 2050

or however long the two xoreas will get an armistice

is this the consent of the governed

over a hundred and fifty years of US treasure spent

on massive wars only one strategic victory

and even then massive deficits and military spending that never ends to line the poxets of politicians with connections

obama08end

[endofinnovation]

Afghanistan-1 million dead during my lifetime (1979-2008)

deadliest organized violent conflict of my lifetime involving multiple state actors (Tiburon Research, July 08 Marin County, Pelosis constituency)

the war on terror is a strategic disaster for the United States, still the most powerful country on Earth but woefully misguided from outdated foreign policy and false ideology

lets be better citizens and try for a better planet

2 point 6 billion in 1960 6 point 2 billion in 2010

lower demand

[stevejonas1088]

thanks everyone for posting quotes from some of the major democratic leaders who also believed in the lead up to the war. my actual question for most people is this. How smart are our democratic leaders if they were in fact duped by GW.

[tony50195]

"We know that he has stored away secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002.

"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002.

"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction." Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002

[McHagee2old2BPREZ]

lol, so Al Gore and Ted Kennedy are responsible for bogging us down in a quagmire? lmao!!

good luck selling that one! I'll put my money on Capt. Mission Accomplished!! hahaa!!

the GOP owns the occupation of Iraq while Bin Laden pumps out more videos than P Diddy.

not to mention McHagee wants 100 years there! or is it 2013? I can't keep up with the old fella's flip flops.

[iamthisbreath]

Australia Supports freedom

Vote Ron paul

THis is a Serious time to realize and speak up now before we loose it

Freedom needs a voice

[peaceman08]

Its not a "war"

it cant be "won"

As long as it is "framed" in these terms, no progress can be made..

It was an "invasion", followed by an "occupation"

the continuation of which can only

bring more tragedy...

When will our "representatives" "represent" their voting constituency rather than their campaign donors ?

When will "We the People" insist that they do?

Impeach!

[HiTekVagabond]

The war ended May 2, 2003 "Mission Accomplished"

Ohh that's right. That was all a publicity stunt. But wait. Republicans don't do publicity stunts and that was just a mission, not the war.

[peaceman08]

34,000 young American men and women dead or wounded; hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and Afghanis killed; millions of refugees fleeing their homes; economies and cultures in shambles; infrastructure in ruins; sectarian violence; a destabilized region; a half a trillion dollars squandered; America' prestige destroyed and her citizens defamed.

[GigmongerStine]

Time for a Revolution

[GigmongerStine]

Nancy,

What part of Impeachment don't you understand? We sent you there to Impeach these bastards and you betrayed us. We're sick and tired of your excuses and your incompetence. You have been a disgrace. But then no surprise... you're just fitting in with all the other do-nothings. Rot in hell.

CLINTON COUNTRY 08'

[Ralphdraw3]

quotes from Powell and Rice in 2001 Referring to WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION IN IRAQ Colin Powell Feb 2001 "He has not developed any significant capability with respect to weapons of mass destruction" Condi Rice July 2001 "We are able to keep arms from him. His military forces have not been rebuilt." quote from GWB- Reporter- "So mr president, what did Iraq have to do with September the eleventh?" GEORGE W. BUSH- "NOTHING."

[tony50195]

Bill Clinton: "I supported the president when he asked for authority to stand up against weapons of mass destruction in Iraq," he said in May 2003, the same year he was quoted praising Bush's handling of the war. In a June 2004 article in Time magazine, Clinton also suggested that he would have acted the same way Bush did.

[tony50195]

Why did Clinton bomb Iraq during the Monica investigaion?

[milofonbil]

If you remember correctly, Clinton launched an air strike on Afghanistan and Sudan. That was in retaliation for the bombing of US Embassies.

Bush is the one that chose not to go after his best buddy's son, Osama Bin Laden and attacked Iraq instead. We still have not found Bin Laden. Why??

[tony50195]

Sudanese President Omar Hassan Ahmed Bashir, hoping to have terrorism sanctions lifted, offered the arrest and extradition of bin Laden and detailed intelligence data about the global networks constructed by Egypt's Islamic Jihad, Iran's Hezbollah and the Palestinian Hamas.These networks included the two hijackers who piloted jetliners into the World Trade Center.But CLINTON and National Security Adviser Samuel "Sandy" BERGER failed to act causing 9/11.

[HiTekVagabond]

I love the way that Republicans blame a CIA intelligence failure in 1995 on Bill Clinton or Sandy Berger. "This represents the worst single intelligence failure in this whole terrible business. It is the key to the whole thing right now. It is reasonable to say that had we had this data we may have had a better chance of preventing the attacks." They did bomb the gas factory in Sudan afterwards.

But now after 9/11, Bush used false intelligence to attack Iraq instead of hunting down

[tony50195]

"In the 4 years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists including al Qaeda members." - Sen. Hillary Clinton Oct 10, 2002

[McHagee2old2BPREZ]

too bad there's no WMD's for Bush. he looks like a fucking douchbag right now!

[tony50195]

"Together we must also confront the new hazards of chemical and biological weapons, and the outlaw states, terrorists and organized criminals seeking to acquire them. Saddam Hussein has spent the better part of this decade, and much of his nation's wealth, not on providing for the Iraqi people, but on developing nuclear, chemical and biological weapons and the missiles to deliver them."

President Clinton, Jan. 27, 1998.

[lrlbox21]

Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki proclaimed on Friday that Al-Qaeda had been routed in Baghdad thanks to a security plan launched a year ago, and would soon be defeated throughout the country.

Pelosi and Reid once said "The war is Lost"

Talk about contempt.

[Ralphdraw3]

Good,

then we can start withdrawing troops..

[patsagainstrats]

The House Democrats prefer to waste their time and our money on the political theatre of dead-end fishing expeditions, rather than dealing with the central issues of our national security.

[lrlbox21]

BOTOX ?

She's the worst speaker in this Countrys history. A traitorous San Francisco liberal.

[SapientiaAdest]

Obey the Constitution EVERYDAY, Pelosi!!!

[starkman79]

Flex your muscle Pelosi. Educate those who do not know that the idea of checks and balances on government that has saved this government from dictatorship! Also if they did try to impeach him Bush would declar himself dictator, no joke...

[christiv3]

Go, Nancy, Go!  Get these damn bastards for ruining our country with their LIES!

[jetmechanic1]

Constitution? WTF is that?

Seems like they only throw that out when it suits them (DEMs and REPs)

RP'08

[Chaiyah88]

I think this poor lady doesn't have a clue what her oath of office implies. She's complicit with anti-Constitutional behavior, and she's not actually taking responsibility for abuse of power. She's blowing us off, once more.

[Phana24JeffG]

This dumb bitch is more concerned about Muzzies and the ACLU than the defense of America. Too bad this old broad never learned one salient fact about national defense.

[cincinnatusnow]

They do not obey the laws of the land.They exploit terror to justify their illegal acts.They continue to evade and break laws.Where is justice when those who are assigned to enforce it are unable or unwilling?

[cincinnatusnow]

If Bush and Cheney were gone we get her?SHEEESH-where have our truly good leaders gone? Most all of our current leadership are corporate bought and paid for political whores.We need representation for the people NOW.Boy,is this gov broken

[Unkn0wnGuy]

FUCK YOU BITCH. You take the constitution seriously and you honor your oath in office?? WHEY did you vote to remove habeas corpus? WHY did you vote for domestic wiretapping? WHY did you vote for the patriot act(s)?

You are a liar, and embarrassment to this country, and should be hanged at the steps fo the capitol building with the rest of the treasonous 'representatives'.

[marcusjansen239369]

sut up and IMPEACH!!! She is the one who stopped it all along!!!!!! IMPEACH!!!!!!!

[lrlbox21]

Well, first off we're not warmongering for greed.

If I remember correctly we were attacked on 911 here at home. We were attacked many more times abroad.

Should we just let this continue happening in the name of peace ? I think not.

We do not conquer other countries. If that were the case we would own their land.

The only land we have ever taken was to bury our dead.

To compare USA to Alex. the Great , Hitler or any of those despots is an insult to our Country.

[tony50195]

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."

Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998.

[tony50195]

"Together we must also confront the new hazards of chemical and biological weapons, and the outlaw states, terrorists and organized criminals seeking to acquire them. Saddam Hussein has spent the better part of this decade, and much of his nation's wealth, not on providing for the Iraqi people, but on developing nuclear, chemical and biological weapons and the missiles to deliver them."

President Clinton, Jan. 27, 1998.

[tony50195]

"As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998.

[Ralphdraw3]

This is when the PNAC was desperately pushing for war with Iraq. (The Democrats were given the same krapp intell - from Ahmed Chalabi and Curveball - in 1998 that they were given in 2002.)

Bill Clinton, wisely, decided against war.

[tony50195]

Bill Clinton: "I supported the president when he asked for authority to stand up against weapons of mass destruction in Iraq," he said in May 2003, the same year he was quoted praising Bush's handling of the war. In a June 2004 article in Time magazine, Clinton also suggested that he would have acted the same way Bush did.

[Ralphdraw3]

Bill Clinton did not start a war in 1998 against Iraq....

The fact remains that Bush lied about the intell - both the CIA and the STate Department do not believe that Iraq was working on a nuclear bomb.

In fact, Tenet had the nuclear bomb reference removed twice from Bush's speeches. (Cheney did not clear his speeches with the CIA.)

BUSH, CHENEY AND CONDI ARE LIARS AND WAR CRIMINALS

[tony50195]

Didn't Saddam kill 10 million of his own people and use WMD's on 5,000 Kurds? Why should that be tolerated?

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."

President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998.

[Ralphdraw3]

Didn't Bush lie about Iraq's WMD???

Why did Bush lie??

Why should lying about WMD and terrorists be tolerated??

Why should starting a war for phony reasons be tolerated?

[tony50195]

In the 4 years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists including al Qaeda members. - Sen. Hillary Clinton Oct 10, 2002

[Ralphdraw3]

Hillary was being fed the krapp intell that all of Congress was getting or, perhaps, she was lying.

That is why I support Obama!!!!

thanks for the quote!!!

[MjoEm32]

Fine, proving that Hillary can talk shit also - is this news?? But she wasn't the driving force behind this appalling decision.

There never was a scrap of evidence that Saddam was linked to al-Qaeda. Saddam was widely despised as a poor Muslim by endless groups in the Middle East.

[tony50195]

"As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998.

[Ralphdraw3]

1) Pelosi voted against the Authorization of Force, 2002

2) In 1998 (and afterwards), the PNAC was feeding the CIA krapp intelligence from Ahmed Chalabi and the Iraqi National Congress. Chalabi was on the payroll of both the CIA and the State Department. The CIA finally kicked Chalabi out when it turned out that he was lying wholesale about everything.

But keep putting those quotes from 1998 up!!! They are so fun to read..

[tony50195]

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."

President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998.

[tony50195]

Lied? Didn't Saddam kill 10 million of his own people and gas 5,000 Kurds?  Those were WMD's he used against the Kurds. Clinton is the real criminal by allowing terrorists to train on U.S. soil.

[holdingcompany]

so what.

[eastwood13]

Its about time the congress is standing up to the current currupt administration!

This is what (we the people) elected to do...

[erdbeermund78]

I'm proud of Ms. Pelosi today. I hope she can keep up the good work.

[bubblestar847]

Like she said, this isn't about partisanship. It isn't about being a democrat or a republican. It's about being an American and our constitution should never be taken advantage of - by anyone.

[Chris1345]

Thanks to the Democrats in Congress for keeping the Bush Admin on its toes. Hopefully they pursue this contempt vote with a lawsuit. Bush does not respect the Constitution..

[guaporuiz]

At a girl, Nancy! Keep up the great work!
