    Pelosi to her priest:
    Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. My last confession was, well… last week. Once again I lied to the American People and threw dedicated Government professionals under the bus. I know I promised last week I would come clean, but… I can’t. If I told the truth I would lose my position of power, and it’s too important for me to stay in this position so that I can impose on America what’s right for them. So, I’ll do another “Act of Contrition” and 10 “Hail Mary”s and I REALLY REALLY promise that after we’ve turned America into a Socialist ‘Garden of Eden’ I’ll tell the truth.

    The following statement, or variations thereof, is often attributed to Thomas Jefferson:

    “A government big enough to supply you with everything you need, is a government big enough to take away everything that you have….”

    We have never found such a statement in Jefferson’s writings. As far as we know, this statement actually originates with Gerald R. Ford, who said, “A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have,” in an address to a joint session of Congress on August 12, 1974.[1]

    This quotation is sometimes followed by, “The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases,” which is most likely a misquotation of Jefferson’s comment, “The natural progress of things is for liberty to yeild, and government to gain ground.”

    What is it, in a few words, that all Republicans believe? We believe – along with millions of Democrats and Independents – that a government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have.

    Gerald Ford in an address to Congress on August 12, 1974. He reiterated them as part of his closing remarks of the Republican National Convention of 1996, held in San Diego, California.

    Too bad that Mr. Ford was wrong about what “…all Republicans believe”.

    Because that’s what the media would like to you to believe. ABC — All Barack Channel – NBC – National Barack Channel, etc. IF this ever made it to the national media, they would dismiss it as irrelevant, and “unscientific” poll. Of course, if the story was the other way around, they’d be shouting from the rooftops and hyperventilating about it on all their cable channels and saying…”See? See? The majority of the US loves socialism!”

    Thank you Houston!

    Pelo-cchio “welcomes” like these are vitally important!

    Nancy Pelosi’s power comes from the campaigning she does to raise funds for Democrat congressional candidates from districts around the country.

    Making a visit from Pelosi a very visible liability in the candidates’ home districts is the best way to dry up her power!!!

    She wouldn’t be nearly as dangerous if she was just a single Congressperson from San Francisco. The danger comes from Democrat Congresspeople voting for her to be Speaker of the House, because they owe her a favor for helping them to raise money for their campaigns.

    Keep up the good work patriots!

    OpenSecrets.org has a wealth of information about Nancy Pelosi’s campaign finance information.

    If you want to see a list of congressional candidates that her “PAC To The Future” PAC contributed to in 2008 follow this link:

    http://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/expend.php?cmte=C00344234&cycle=2008

    These numbers are just the tip of the iceberg because they don’t include the money she raises by speaking at fundraisers for Democrat candidates.

    Since Nancy Pelosi represents the most liberal portion of the most liberal city in the country, she does not spend time campaigning for her own re-election in San Francisco. Instead she spends the campaign season traveling to other districts to raise money for other Democrat congressional candidates who have the power to vote for or against her for the position of Speaker of the House.

    There should be lots and lots of opportunities to give Rep. Pelosi a patriotic tea party “welcome” in congressional districts around the country once the campaign season begins!!!

    Oh, the lib professors have some critical thinking ability…they just don’t care to use it when looking in the mirror. One of the profs from whom I learned the most about it was a longtime drinker of the Kool-Aid. Between her classes, and the fact that I was a Rush Baby, I was free to make my own decisions about what was what. And I still credit both for giving me the tools to make the right conclusions: her the technique, him the truth.
