Still like “The Nude Erection” slogan….

But this makes me want to- to take a cue from Mary Landreiu- punch Nancy Pelosi in the face.

Her opening statement covered a full range of Democratic issues: fiscal responsibility. The minimum wage. The trade deficit. Student loans. Health care. Energy independence. Social Security. Medicare.

Then came the questions. “This is now the third election in a row in which they’ve raised security issues just before the election,” the first questioner said of the Republicans. “Why won’t it work for them a third time?”

“We won’t be Swift-boated on the national security issue,” the minority leader maintained.

“As you know,” came the follow-up, Republicans “are citing past votes by you and other Democrats.”

Pelosi was defensive. “I have five children,” she said. “Five grandchildren, going on six. And I consider myself the ultimate security mom.” By way of clarification, she felt compelled to add: “Democrats are committed to hunting down Osama bin Laden.”

A third questioner pointed out that Republicans have regained the lead on national security. “This is what, I guess, campaigns will be about,” Pelosi conceded with some reluctance. “It shouldn’t be about national security.”

This woman, and in turn and in toto the Democrats, are so completely out of touch. I will revisit this later, but to say an election shouldn’t be about national security is…. there hasn’t been, in 2000 years of developing language, and lots of recent Democratic trying…. a word hasn’t been invented yet to describe how stupid that thought is.

It’s like saying cooking shouldn’t be about ingredients. It’s ridiculous on it’s face. And this is the moron the Dem’s are embracing to be the next Speaker. Come on guys…. you have to be kidding.
