Pelosi Edits DNC Resolution Honoring…Herself

The Democratic National Committee wanted to honor one of its most distinguished members Thursday with a resolution commemorating House minority leader Nancy Pelosi’s years as Speaker of the House. But the kind gesture was apparently not enough for Pelosi, who insisted on amending the resolution to further bolster praise for herself.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelos, D-Calif.
According to Politico, Pelosi urged her own daughter to suggest certain additional comments the former Speaker felt the DNC’s Resolutions Committee had overlooked:
“I have some friendly amendments,” said Christine Pelosi, a political strategist, at the committee’s session during the DNC Winter Meeting at the Marriott Wardman Park hotel Thursday afternoon. She is a member of the committee.
“You think I’m kidding,” Christine Pelosi added, to surprised laughter from the room. The proposed changes, she indicated, came out of a discussion with her mother.
First, Pelosi wanted to add a mention of her fight against HIV and AIDS, because it was “why she went to Congress.” Then, she wanted to insert a paragraph on her “accomplishments for equality,“ mentioning the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009 and the repeal of ”don’t ask, don’t tell” in December.
“Finally, since, as she said, ‘I’m not going anywhere,’ she wanted to add, in the final ‘whereas’ clause, ‘…and will continue the fight for America’s working families,’” Christine Pelosi said.
The committee applauded that point, and approved the amended resolution on a voice vote.
The Pelosi resolution, submitted by a roster of Democratic luminaries headed by DNC Chairman Tim Kaine, was one of dozens of ceremonial acts considered by the committee, on such topics as praising President Obama’s State of the Union address, honoring the victims of January’s Tucson shootings and memorializing Elizabeth Edwards. Most of the resolutions were approved without changes.

Posted on February 24, 2011 at 11:12pmThe fact that after the election losses she refused to recognize that maybe the Dems had pushed too hard and she said they didn’t push hard enough, shows her arrogance and daftness.

Posted on February 24, 2011 at 11:11pmThis is an example of how congress has marginalized itself. We need to declare states sovereignty and nullify the abuse of power in the executive and legislative branches, that is take back the states rights usurped by the federal government.

Posted on February 24, 2011 at 11:02pmWow, the woman has no shame. I think it’s nice the DNC wanted to honor her but having the person you want to honor ‘redact’ your resolution to glorify themselves even more should have been a hint – perhaps you can find a more humble person to praise. Pelosi already is a legend in her own mind.

“Ideologies aren’t all that important. What’s important is psychology.
The Democratic constituency is just like a herd of cows. All you have to do is lay out enough silage and they come running. That’s why I became an operative working with Democrats. With Democrats all you have to do is make a lot of noise, lay out the hay, and be ready to use the ole cattle prod in case a few want to bolt the herd.
Eighty percent of the people who call themselves Democrats don’t have a clue as to political reality.
What amazes me is that you could take a group of people who are hard workers and convince them that they should support social programs that were the exact opposite of their own personal convictions. Put a little fear here and there and you can get people to vote any way you want.
The voter is basically dumb and lazy. The reason I became a Democratic operative instead of a Republican was because there were more Democrats that didn’t have a clue than there were Republicans.
Truth is relative. Truth is what you can make the voter believe is the truth. If you’re smart enough, truth is what you make the voter think it is. That‘s why I’m a Democrat. I can make the Democratic voters think whatever I want them to.”
