Nancy Pelosi Succeeds—Destroys Economy

http://americasnewstoday.com/stories/09292008-BAiLouTPeLosi.html

Negotiations on a $700 billion bailout of Wall Street descended into partisan bickering on Monday [09-29-08] after a failed House vote sent stocks spiraling down more than 700 points in intraday trading.

The House quickly divided into hostile camps on what had intended to be a bipartisan bill, with both sides saying the other had not held up its end of the bargain. Indeed 40 percent of Democrats and two-thirds of Republicans opposed the legislation in the 205-228 vote against the bill.

Republicans blame House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for the bill's failure, saying a pre-vote speech in which she criticized the Bush administration's handling of the economy had turned Republican votes against the bailout.

"This is not a partisan crisis, this is an economic crisis," said Deputy Minority Whip Rep. Eric Cantor, who said that 94 Democrats also refused to go along with the bill. He described the vote as the result of "Speaker Pelosi's failure to listen and failure to lead."

Pelosi just told a group of illegal aliens that they were very patriotic and that it was very unAmerican for the U.S. to try to stop them from coming into the country. She and obama supports illegal aliens working, voting, medical care, social security/food stamp receiving, etc. Why? To gain their votes and $ support to keep their seats. Obama, Pelosi, Reid and the rest of the lib mob want total control of this country to feed their power-hungry egoes. Wake up America. Take your country back!!

Clinton DID balance the budget. He did it by assigning his wife to champion the budget busting federal health care campaign. After her failure the Republican congress passed balanced budgets.

Lol. How can you destroy something that was already destroyed? The $700 Billion could NEVER "destroy" the economy. I don't what world you're living in where economics is topsy-turvy.
