As the CEO's of the big 3 automakers return to capitol hill we hear they are now requesting $34 billion dollars. What caused this increase from the original $25 billion they originally requested? Nancy Pelosi.
After their first visit, the executives of GM, Chrysler and Ford were criticized by Nancy (I want a bigger Speaker's plane) Pelosi. The bellowing of the bellicose speaker that they should get rid of the corporate jets before congress would give them a loan was heard and received. They dumped the jets and drove back to Washington. All three CEO's will work for $1 a year. Cuts will be made. Big mouthed Nancy followed her aero-rant by saying congress must approve loans for the big 3 and that bankruptcy was NOT an option. This was heard loud and clear too. Nancy's loose lips will now cost the U.S. taxpayer an additional $9 billion, bringing the auto bailout to $34 billion. Gee, if she would have kept her mouth shut or just given them the $25 billion she would have saved the extra 9. Or is the $9 billion more to compensate for travel and bonuses?
Nancy has been in hot water before. She made up bible verses to give credence to her self-serving views on the environment. She claimed to be an expert on Catholic Church doctrine by saying "the Catholic Church really doesn't know when life begins" to try to gain support for her pro-abortion views. She just seems to make things up to suit her opinion. And she doesn't think before spewing out her venom.
After two years of Nancy and her Gladys Kravitz style of governing, we really appreciate the gentleman style of Speaker Hastart. Newt Gingrich may have voiced opinions, but at least he always got the facts right. And they respected the President. Pelosi has done nothing but complain and nag. She was supposed to be a giant step for woman. Unfortunately the step was backward. Perhaps that's why Obama is the President-elect and Hillary is HIS appointee.
