    Pelosi: ‘I Don’t Think that People Want a New Direction’

    What do you say this ?? she lives in lalaland. Her going from majority to minority leader in one House session should have told her something and shes gone down from there.
    House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said that despite Democrats losing the House, Senate, and almost two-thirds of state houses, the American people don't want a new direction.
    The California congressman appeared on CBS's "Face the Nation" Sunday and instead said the issue facing Democrats is simply a failure of communication.
    DICKERSON: “The Democratic Party is in a moment of questioning about its identity. You were reelected to lead the Democrats in the House. What do you tell Democrats who want a new direction and then, go to you, what are you going to do differently?”
    PELOSI: “Well, I don’t think people want a new direction. Our values unify us and our values are about supporting America’s working families. That’s one that everyone is in agreement on. What we want is a better connection of our message to working families in our country, and that clearly in the election showed that that message wasn’t coming through. But we are united in terms of the security of our country, which is our first responsibility. To be smart and strong and not reckless in how we protect the American people, strong in how we protect our economy.”
    Pelosi also downplayed her party's losses in 2010 and 2016, telling CBS's John Dickerson "You're forgetting that we went up so high in 2006 and 2008."
    DICKERSON: "Here's my question, though, Democrats since 2008, the numbers are ghastly for Democrats. Democrats are down 10 percent, in the House down 19.3 percent and in governors 35 percent. The Democrats are getting clobbered at every level over multiple elections. That seems like a real crisis for the party?"
    PELOSI: "You're forgetting that we went up so high in 2006 and 2008, and let me just put that in perspective. When President Clinton was elected, Republicans came in big in the next election. When President Bush was president, we came in big in the next election. When President Obama became president, the Republicans came in big in the next election."

    Shes a buffoon the democrats know it, but she raises huge amounts of cali money and gives it to them. Del Monte is a huge Donor to pelosi, Read why below. Shes as dirty as any of them


    Star-Kist and Nancy Pelosi

    Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's home district includes San Francisco.

    Star-Kist Tuna's headquarters are in San Francisco , Pelosi's home district.

    Star-Kist is owned by Del Monte Foods and is a major contributor to Pelosi.

    Star-Kist is the major employer in American Samoa employing 75% of the Samoan work force.

    Paul Pelosi, Nancy's husband, owns $17 million dollars of Star-Kist stock.

    January, 2007 when the minimum wage was increased from $5.15 to $7.25, Pelosi had American Samoa exempted from the increase so Del Monte would not have to pay the higher wage. This would make Del Monte products less expensive than their competition's.

    Last week when the huge bailout bill was passed, Pelosi added an earmark to the final bill adding $33 million dollars for an 'economic development credit in American Samoa '.

    Pelosi has called the Bush Administration "CORRUPT" ? ?

    How do you spell "HYPOCRISY" ? ?

    Dickerson should have had her explain out what it means by values. So that he could have shown that she was just using the word and never understood it.
