Pelosi: Bush Is “A Total Failure.”
Speaker Pelosi called President Bush a “total failure” Thursday in reaction to Bush’s remarks two days earlier in which he took the Democratic run Congress to task for not doing their, “fundamental job.”
Pelosi’s Own Words:
“God bless him, bless his heart, president of the United States –a total failure, losing all credibility with the American people on the economy, on the war, on energy, you name the subject,”
Can you not feel the hate in that quote? This is a woman who is bent on pushing her liberal agenda and has finally snapped.
She refuses to believe that we are winning the war in Iraq. She has called for withdrawal and defeat numerous times. She has failed not only the American people in the war, but also the soldiers who are putting their life on the line so she can call for their defeat.
She promised that the Democratic run Congress would lower gas prices. That was in 2006. Another failure by Pelosi. Oil prices however have dropped in the last few days due to a combination of Bush lifting the executive ban on drilling and increased supply due to Americans forgoing the pump because of the high prices. It’s interesting that an increase supply lowers the price. Is that not what we have been asking for? If we Drill Here, Drill Now, our supply will increase; in turn lowering gas prices. The Democrats would have us believe that this decrease in price would not happen because it will take 5 years to get the oil. Bush simply lifted a ban that does nothing until the Democrats in Congress vote with Republicans to lift the ban, but the price still dropped. This is due in part to speculators. 73% of Americans want us to drill, but Pelosi has failed to listen to them.
I called Speaker Pelosi’s office earlier this week to express my dissatisfaction with her polices concerning drilling. The call went something like this:
Pelosi’s Office- “Speaker Pelosi’s office.”
Me- “I have a couple of questions I wanted to ask Speaker Pelosi. Is she available?”
Pelosi’s Office-”Umm, you can leave a message on her voicemail.”
Me- “I tried that the other day, it was full. Are you able to answer questions concerning her policies?”
Pelosi’s Office- “What was the question?”
Me- “In 2006 Speaker Pelosi said the Democrats had a plan to lower gas prices. Is that correct?”
Pelosi’s Office- “Yes that is.”
Me- “Well the prices are still high. Is there a new plan?”
Pelosi’s Office - “You can go to her website for policy information.”
I went to the website today and found the usual propaganda that she has been spreading, but I decided I’d reach out to Pelosi one last time. I sent an email to her under the “contact us” page on her site. Here’s my email:
Speaker Pelosi, When you find the time will you please answer the following questions?
1) In 2006 you promised the American people that the Democrats had a plan to lower gas prices. Since you and your party have taken over Congress gas prices have skyrocketed. When will you apologize to the American people for lying to them?
2) According to American Solutions, 73% of Americans support offshore drilling yet you continue to ignore their wishes. Why do you ignore the people for whom you work?
3) Have you forgotten that you are to serve the American people’s interest and not your own?
You recently called President Bush a failure. Congress’s approval rating has reached a record low of just 18%. That is lower than the President’s approval rating. It seems as though you are the failure.
I left my email address along with my name. If I receive a response I will post it here on MonkeyCrash. I have a feeling, however, that Speaker Pelosi will fail in responding.

The current state of our politics is ridiculous. This is the exact reason why so many voters have become disillusioned with the system. Bush is not justified in his comments, but Pelosi needs to take the high road, along with realizing her own shortcomings. Heres is my take on it… http://www.semipolitico.com

Great piece, Bryan. Cracks me up that whoever answered to phone asked you what your question was and then just directed you to the website.

She’s what we get for the Republicans and conservatives being whatever they’ve been for how many years now?
As for her refusing to believe the U.S. is winning in Iraq, I believe that it’s as much as she doesn’t want to know if we’re winning, Either way, once she lets in that truth, then, unless she’s over the edge–and she may well be–she’d be faced with having to change.
BTW: As you obviously know, you shouldn’t hold your breath waiting for her or her office minions to return your call.
I sent her an e-mail recently re: the energy crisis. In the subject line I said” Resign now, or get out of the way re: the current energy crisis. You’re an embarrassment and obstacle.”
An automatically generated reply I got soon thereafter said that congressional courtesy prevented her office from replying, unless I was a california resident, which I’m not.

Bush is the worst president in American history. Bush facilitated the 9/11 attacks. Subsequently, Bush lied to Congress and the American people relative to the reasons for invading Iraq. Bush purposefully misled Congress and the American people. Then, Bush murdered more than 4,000 United States service members. And Bush wounded more than 30,000 United States service members. In torturing prisoners of war, Bush patently violated the Geneva Convention. Bush unlawfully wiretapped United States citizens. In using “signing statements” to challenge hundreds of laws passed by Congress, Bush violated the Constitution. Bush has ignored global warming. Bush is guilty of criminal negligence relative to the response to Hurricane Katrina. Bush disobeys our democratic values and Constitution. Bush is a disgrace to the United States.
