The left has nothing but good things to say about the Occupy Wall St. protests. A day after the president justified their movement, and three days after Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke did the same, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi gave the protesters a glowing endorsement.
The Weekly Standard explains:
During a press conference Thursday afternoon, House minority leader Nancy Pelosi praised those participating in the “Occupy Wall Street” protests. ”God bless them,” Pelosi said, “for their spontaneity. It’s independent … it’s young, it’s spontaneous, and it’s focused. And it’s going to be effective.”
“The message of the protesters is a message for the establishment everyplace,” said the House Democrats’ leader. “No longer will the recklessness of some on Wall Street cause massive joblessness on Main Street.”
Here’s the video:
Pelosi was reportedly not asked about any of the illegal actions of the protests — actions that have led to over 700 arrests.

This is so known not spontaneous and it is so obviously Socialist/Marxist in origin, yet she would deign to give it credence while calling Tea Party all kinds of negative things. It is obvious where her allegiance lies and it isn’t with the U.S. Constitution and limited government of, for and by the People. It is for big government set in the mold of Socialized Europe. How do we keep sending back the same 90+% of these to Congress. We need term limits and to return to the States appointing Senators.

Posted on October 7, 2011 at 7:57amI guess anything with 3 months planning is spontaneous? I wish my ex-wife would have thought spontaneity required time to plan.

Posted on October 7, 2011 at 8:24amI have one thing to say to all those protestors. Nancy Pelosi thinks you are great! If you still think you are doing the right thing, God help you. They know that the only chance in hell that they can be re-elected is to shift all of the blame on the rich in the private sector. I guess there are not very many people that are members of the house of intellect. I fear that we are doomed. The government is the problem. Everyone must go!

Posted on October 7, 2011 at 9:21amCould this insanity be true?
There are many “government officials from local to federal levels, whom hold power over “we the people” Granted, we gave them the power, however they still hold it. Current events in New York and now in Washington have our attention. “We the people” are paying more attention to those elected officials than ever before. I for one see something that is just not right. Some of these elected officials seem to be ….. Let’s be civil here….a brick short of a full load, a little off center bubble, a few screws loose, totally loony, etc. Let’s be honest here, a large part of the legislation being proposed, voted for, passed into law, is just plain insanity. The fiscal items being passed lead this state and country directly into bankruptcy, any third grader can clearly see this.
The political class consists of many people from all walks of life, ages, mental capacities, morals, wealth, education, etc. These politicians mirror the ruled class, and in the sense are in the most basic terms, “they are humans too”. As humans they are susceptible to the same afflictions are other humans. In any human population there are a percentage of people who will develop mental illness, dementia, Alzheimer’s and many other types of brain deterioration caused mental disabilities. One should also consider other types of physiological disorders such as narcissism, megalomania, bi-polar disorder, schizophrenia, mad cow, etc.

Not convinced yet, may I help you recall a recent event, Ted Kennedy? Ted was a senator who had a terminal brain tumor, he was a senator to the last hour of the last day of his life, and was ready to vote for the health care bill if needed. Could one make a case for mental diminished capacity?
Absolutely!
