Advice to America’s daughters who aspire to be the next generation of leaders:

Study this woman’s behavior — then vow not to repeat it.

Know Your Cower. Waste Your Power.

Via The Hill:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, when asked Tuesday whether Democrats bear some of the responsibility regarding the current crisis on Wall Street, had a one-word answer: “No.”

Pelosi (D-Calif.) ripped President Bush’s “mismanagement” of the economy and a lack of regulation that led to the current situation.

“I think the American people have had it with this situation where the middle-income people in our country are not protected from the ramifications of the risk-taking and the greed of these financial institutions,” Pelosi told MSNBC.

When asked whether the Democrats “deserve some responsibility” regarding the economic crisis, Pelosi responded: “No.”

On a related front, Pelosi is defending embattled corruptocrat Charlie Rangel.

That’s all Bush’s fault, too.

    If we could get her to repeat that answer under oath we would have ample reason to impeach her and then prosecute her for lying under oath. Maybe she could serve out Scooter Libby’s commutted sentence.

    Democrats constantly take credit for making housing loans more accessable for the poor, but then they want to deny any responsibility for the lax standards that led to the housing market crash. How can anyone continue to believe these tools?

    Yeah, everything is Bush’s fault. I baked a cake last month and it fell. I cooked some fish the other night and it was burned. I dropped a piece of toast and the buttered side fell face down.

    Bush! What else can I say.

    As for Pelosi, she says everything with a straight face, no matter how absurd it is. Then again she has so much bo tox in it that all she can do is have a straight face.

    She always has a straight face because she doesn’t have a brain to enable her to make facial expressions. I think that she is really a doppelganger that somebody uploads with democratic-type answers each morning and she recites them on demand like a parrot. Examples like:
    AAAAHHHHKKK! Oil companies are evil. Drilling is wrong.
    AAAAHHHHKKK! Republicans are stupid. I have a common sense gas plan.
    AAAHHKK! AAAHHHHKK! Damn the president.
    AAAAHHHHKKK! I am a smart, pretty bird. I need a pay raise.

    Democrats Children say the darndest things! Recently my son has blamed George Bush for a broken lamp, mud on the floor, and the neighbors cat being mysteriously painted green. When he is a little older I expect he will tell his teachers “George Bush ate my homework!”

    Blame is better than responsibility. Isn’t that right, Nancy?

    Too bad you really didn’t “drain” the swamp after all. Chawlie seems to have kept his chairmanship of a certain committee that oversees the tax code yet Chawlie doesn’t seem to know how to pay “all” his taxable earnings.

    Most. Ethical. Congress. Evah.

    Snort.

    Just saw The Spawn of Pelosi on Hannity & Colmes. Eeeek!

    Me too, greefairie. She’s as clueless as the mother. Is it genetic?

    She can’t even answer a freaking question. I mean, yes or no, would Sarah Palin be a step backwards for women? This dodger kept on repeating “women’s rights.” Is this still the suffrage movement in the 19th-20th centuries?

    And she’s a superdelegate from CA. I wonder how she got that distinction. Could it be that Nancy is her mother? Nooooo. Political patronage…. say it ain’t so! :shock:

    Correct me if I’m wrong but but wasn’t pelosi’s campaign contributed to by Fannie and Freddie? Does she not own several Million dollars worth of stock in AIG? So what is she saying, that she’s a victim of her own greed? After all she owned stock in AIG. Man what a Hypocrite.

    charlie rangel, william jefferson, bill clinton all have several things in common besides being black. being hogs at the trough, being crooks, being liars, being able to look their constituents in the eye, tell them a lie, and pick their pocket at the same time.

    I agree with Nancy “Placebo” Pelosi actually.. Responsibility is not something Democrats should be handling without supervision.
