Nancy Pelosi, Far Beyond the Left

Nancy Pelosi is in hiding awaiting word that she may select a new "suite" and hang the new curtains. She is poised to become the New House Leader if America goes down the path of destruction and allows the Democrats to take charge. The country does not need Nancy Pelosi and her politics in charge of anything. She is very liberal, more so than most, and constantly votes against the things that most Americans want in order to push her leftist agenda. Among other things, The Washington Times points out these items in her voting record:

• Mrs. Pelosi has consistently voted against welfare reform, including the 1996 bill signed by President Clinton and its re-authorization


• Mrs. Pelosi received a 100 percent rating from NARAL Pro-Choice America last year and a 0 rating from the National Right to Life Committee


• In 1998, she opposed a constitutional amendment to permit school prayer in the classroom


• In 1999, she opposed allowing state and local governments to display the Ten Commandments on public property, including schools


• She has voted against education IRAs


• In 2003, she opposed a $10 million program for school vouchers in the District of Columbia. That same year she voted against the 10-year $400 billion Medicare prescription-drug bill because she preferred one that was twice as expensive.


• Mrs. Pelosi has repeatedly voted for tax increases and opposed tax cuts, even the 2001 bill that doubled the child tax credit to $1,000


• has repeatedly voted to uphold partial-birth abortion, who has voted against parental notification when minor children seek abortion and who has shown no concern for the rights of the innocent unborn


• Mrs. Pelosi has consistently opposed the death penalty

Take a moment to review her voting record and how she ranks among Liberal and Conservative organizations. It is quite telling and shows why we do not need her in charge. Vote Republican to keep her views in the minority where they belong.
