Rep. Clyburn: Pelosi ‘Led Us Out of the Wilderness’

Politico:

Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) said on Sunday that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi led Democrats out of the “wilderness” four years ago and into the “land of milk and honey.”

“We spent four years in the wilderness, then we spent for years in the majority. Who lead us out of the wilderness: Nancy Pelosi,” Clyburn said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

    “Land of Milk and Honey”? I didn’t realize how well off I am, but then I don‘t live in the Washington bubble where it’s been sunshine and lollipops since the Dems took over in 2007. Could have sworn that the unemployment was in the 4.5-5% range back in ‘07, but again, I’m part of the unwashed, illiterate, uneducated population out here who has to deal with reality everyday.

      Even messiah Obama acknowledged the Dems took a shellacking on election day. Maybe Clybummer is in self-deinal of maybe he hears the sound of a Phillistine army marching towards his liberal demo-marxist citadel.

    I just took the plug out of shotgun..Loading it to the max w/ double oughts. Plus the extra cases of shells are in the bed of my truck.
    Picked up a 50lbs of wet ganja and a gallon of lighter fluid.
    Heading out to to the Lousy pLousy Dairy and Honey Bee farm. located on Lombard Road.
    Those Sour Milch “K”ows will soon be making dog food and the San Fran Freako Honey-bees will have to smoke themselves to death inhaling the legal ganja. Not to worry though.. it for medicinal purposes..
    Those honey-bees are sick. Damn SanFreako bees making bitter honey. And Freako Kows giving sour milk.
    Why am I about to do this?
    I want to go back into the wilderness. This land of sour milk and bitter honey is bad for my health.

    Typical minority speak. I’m completely convinced that if somehow a black homeless crackhead with a dozen felony convictions got the Democrat nomination for President black America would still vote 90% for him. The sad part is, the black family has been exploited and destroyed by those who vowed to advance their cause through civil rights legislation. In the 1950 and 60s it was the Democrats who kept them “down on the farm”. Dr Kings nemesis was George Wallace…A Democrat. I am convinced that the white Dems knew that their “civil rights” legislation along with welfare would keep a large portion of black America in Poverty and voting for them. The racist white Democrats won big time…

      Advancing anything through Federal Law without the grass-roots advancement by proper ethics and morals always ends with some form of oppression and abuse. Only honorable citizens can advance the honarable cause. This is why the people must control the political process and not the professional establishment politicians.

      Great another federal political position, proposed by Pelosi. Nancy girl, is re-inventing more power for herself with this disgraceful move. Hopefully Nancy will not have the votes for minority leader,and her plans will go bye bye.

      Power held,is power reluctant to give up. She will NEVER relinquish her political seat.The proposed additional so called third minority leader,is but a veiled attempt to slow down, the new Republican Majority.

    Jim Clyburn you are a disgrace to America. Your district in SC has the nickname “The Corridor of Shame” due to the extreme poverty. YOU might be in the land of milk and honey but you have done nothing for your District. Almost 14% unemployment and an average salary of $28,000 is not the ‘land of milk and honey” for Americans. I live in the 1st District of SC which is on the Atlantic Coast and we just elected Tim Scott to Congress. Tim happens to be Black, so this is not racial. I look out my windows and I see palm trees and the ocean. People in Clyburn’s District see sights that look like they are from the Great Depression years. For 20 years Clyburn has played Master to his District and it is shameful that the people live in shacks and only 40% graduate from high school. Clyburn has been very good at getting pork for Evil Big Companies NOT in his District. This man is beyond shameful.

    If the Dem’s put Pelosi back in charge in the minority position then that tells me they did not hear America or most likely they just do not care about what the American people want. Just like they didn’t listen to us about the Healthcare bill…they knew the majority of Americans didn’t want it but they shoved it through anyway. They just keep burying themselves in deeper and deeper. I think we better stay on top of the Amnesty program. That may be their only hope and of course voter fraud which I think ran rampant this last election. I am convinced that NV and CA was outright fraud.

      In the underground railroad there was the stories I read of a lady who was called the “Black Moses” for daring to bring slaves north to freedom – at the risk of her own life, several times. Her name if I remember right is Harriet Tubberman; and she wanted freedom for the slaves.

      Unlike Pelosi, who simply wishes to destroy the country and enslave us all to the will of the government and her becoming a lifetime tyrant.

      One difference with Obama and Churchill, is that Churchill had the guts most times to do what was needed to win the war against Hitler and the madmen he had around himself. I have read biographies on Churchill and that man was remarkable – form the Boor wars in S Africa to the second World War, and he did indeed make mistakes, some small and some gigantic ones.

      Obama makes gigantic ones while never learning from them.

      Pelosi Economics:

      Speaker of the House, Pelosi’s statements on economic stimulus and unemployment insurance shows either a complete lack of understanding of Economics or extremely evil intent. A stupid person could not obtain Ms. Pelosi’s position in life; therefore, the only alternatives are ignorance or evil intent.

      Our problem is not the distribution or the consumption of wealth. Wealth must be created before it can be either distributed or consumed so the problem is the creation of wealth.

      Government force is only effective in the redistribution and consumption of wealth. Force cannot be used to create wealth. Only economic freedom promotes the production of wealth. The fact that force is totally impotent in the creation of wealth is proven by the thousands of years of tyranny that preceding the Industrial Revolution. Ms. Pelosi’s solutions only involve the use of force to redistribute and consume wealth.

      Wealth, unlike energy, can be both created and destroyed and the surest way to destroy wealth is the use of force. Once our wealth has been destroyed or consumed, all of Ms. Pelosi’s proposed solutions will also be totally impotent.

      Remember, both Hitler’s and Mussolini’s coup required a severe economic crisis. Any economy that encourages consumption and discourages production of wealth is certainly headed into a severe economic crisis. The transfer of wealth to political cronies and loss of freedom contained in the first Stimulus Bill only discourages the creation of wealth.

      What is your opinion? Is Ms. Pelosi ignorant or is she just evil? If you believe that she is ignorant, do you think her ignorance can be cured? Please suggest a solution.

      But remember, ”IGNORANCE CAN BE CURED, BUT STUPIDITY IS FOREVER!”

      To set the record straight, we have not been a capitalist society for fifty years or more. Socialist infiltration has been working at least that long. Since capitalism and socialism cannot co-exist in the same space, we must be considered a socialist society, (one cannot be slightly pregnant). If you doubt, look at the numbers, all government spending is socialist spending and they are spending more than the GDP. With that said, what is failing right now is socialism.
