Via The Hill:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, when asked Tuesday whether Democrats bear some of the responsibility regarding the current crisis on Wall Street, had a one-word answer: “No.”
Pelosi (D-Calif.) ripped President Bush’s “mismanagement” of the economy and a lack of regulation that led to the current situation.
“I think the American people have had it with this situation where the middle-income people in our country are not protected from the ramifications of the risk-taking and the greed of these financial institutions,” Pelosi told MSNBC.

It’s hard to imagine a more extreme combination of stupidity, arrogance, hack partisanship, and severe mental illness than in this Blatherer of the House. It astonishes me; why she isn’t hauled off in a straight jacket or arrested for Constitutional crimes for refusing to represent the people she swore to represent. My economic theory, at the highest macro level is that all of the underlying issues are exacerbated by our energy dependence which is sending about half a Trillion dollars out of our economy every year while taking even more money out of the pockets of consumers by raising the cost of EVERYTHING.
You don’t have to be an Economics guru to see this; common sense enables you to figure it out. But this freakazoid, who is as much a danger to our Nation as Al Qaeda, thinks she is royalty, or perhaps Empress of America, and has decided to impose her own will on the Nation by obstructing ANY progress toward desperately-needed energy independence.
I say ARREST her NOW! THROW her out of office! The people should be massing outside her office with pitchforks and torches! WTF is wrong with this F’ING nation, that we put up with a shitbag like this!!! REFUSING to represent the people and giving us the finger!!!

You can just see the basis for an ad, can’t ya?

How about an ad that asks the question “Do Democrats deserve any responsibility at all” with the Pelosi’s response as the answer. Followed by the question of “If their own leader in Congress says they don’t deserve any responsibility, why give them any? Vote Republican. If the Democrats don’t deserve responsibility, give it to people who do.”
Or perhaps
“If the Democrats won’t accept any responsibility, give it to a party that will. Vote Republican for a responsible government.”

Just look at all the progress that’s been made in the last two years with a democratic controlled house and senate and such fine leaders as Pelosi, Harry Reid, Steny Hoyer, Chuck Schumer, etc.
It’s all about them and nothing to do with getting this country off foreign oil and bringing jobs back to this country, but more about how much bureaucracy they can create.
