Since coming into the leadership position in the House last year, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has done more to aid and comfort terrorist than she has to serve the American people and provide for our safety. Because she is filled with so much hatred for President Bush and traditional American values, she has been more interested in slowing down legislation that protects us and promoting legislation that will destroy everything we hold dear. Her very actions benefit terrorists wishing to do harm to our great nation.
The latest incident is her refusal to bring the FISA bill, a bill that allows our intelligence agencies to gather information on those who communicate with terrorists overseas, to a vote. Instead, she has decided that the House should take a break, letting the current legislation expire. This, after the Senate was able to put together bipartisan legislation to extend the act. Apparently, after only about 5 weeks of work, the House needs a break.
During this time of "work", there have been endless hours of hearings to determine whether Roger Clemens used steroids and a vote to hold Harriet Miers and Josh Bolten in contempt for their refusal to testify in the bogus, worthless, obstructionist hearings regarding the Presidents decision to fire his employees. These follow a pattern of ineffective leadership by the Congresswoman from California.
Yet, when they do pass legislation, it is legislation that is detrimental to our nation. I speak most of the recent stimulus package passed. This is a bill destined to undermine and do very little good to our economy. They pass omnibus bills that include billions in pork, talk of raising taxes, then give $150 billion to people who have very little chance of boosting the economy.
Pelosi's leadership has led to historically low approval ratings for Congress. The people of the US see the worthlessness of her leadership, they see the ineffectiveness of the work of the House under her leadership, yet she continues to operate in this manner. The only ones I see that have that kind of tenacity are the terrorists determined to destroy us. Looking at the eventual outcome of Pelosi's actions, they have the same goal.
