NANCY'S DISASTER

September 30, 2008 --http://www.nypost.com

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi just couldn't control herself yesterday,
savaging President Bush and blaming "right-wing ideology" as the sole
cause of the nation's fiscal turmoil.

Whereupon bipartisan compromise legislation intended to resolve the
nation's financial crisis went poof.

And then the stock market posted its single largest one-day point loss
ever.

Not surprisingly, Pelosi and Democratic leaders like Barney Frank and
Rahm Emanuel immediately blamed the GOP for the bill's defeat, asserting
that Republicans had put their "hurt feelings" above the nation's
interest.

Talk about putting lipstick on a . . . well, on a politician.

The fact is, 95 Democrats - 40 percent of the party's House membership -
voted against the bill.

Pelosi - who allegedly controls the chamber - couldn't even deliver her
own members. How humiliating is that?

Republicans at least had long-standing philosophical objections to a
massive expansion of government power over the economy. And, frankly,
Pelosi's boneheaded speech sure didn't help matters.

But what of her disloyal Democrats?

Clearly, they'd bought the demagogic rhetoric of people like Pelosi and
Frank, that the $700 billion rescue plan constituted a "bailout of Wall
Street."

Yet as responsible parties, from President Bush and Treasury Secretary
Henry Paulsen on down, have repeatedly made clear, this is a rescue of
Main Street from the crippling effects of a potential meltdown of the
nation's credit markets.

Even as they chanted the mantra of bipartisanship, the Democrats have
worked mightily from the outset to spin the crisis for political
advantage.

Yet there's an old political maxim: Don't gloat before they vote - and
Pelosi did just that.

Now lawmakers are at each other's throats and Wall Street is in panic
mode.

Heck of a job, Nancy.

Ew. Hew deer yew criicise our Nancy! Yew bistird yew! Dim yew! Dim yew! Dim yew!!!!

Nancy is so great...yet she couldn't deliver her own party for aye
votes!
You libbos have the brain capacity of parakeet.

I know you are very very sad that the bill did not pass. Nancy
failed you.
