Flashback: Pelosi Rips Bush’s Recess Appointment As A “Mistake” That Harms The “Reputation” Of The United States…

Keep in mind Bush’s was an actual recess appointment unlike Obama’s illegal pro forma appointment that Pelosi hailed yesterday as a “bold” decision.
San Francisco House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement today on President Bush’s use of a recess appointment to name John Bolton as ambassador to the United Nations.
The President’s decision to circumvent the Senate and use a recess appointment naming John Bolton as ambassador to the United Nations is a mistake.
John Bolton’s record provides no evidence of the kind of diplomatic skill, temperament and judgment that ought to be prerequisites for this critical position. There are serious unanswered questions about whether Mr. Bolton improperly used sensitive intelligence information for political purposes, which contributed to the lack of support he had in the Senate.
For President Bush to use a recess appointment for such a controversial nominee not because there was a compelling case that Mr. Bolton was the best person for the job, but merely because the President had the power to do it subverts the confirmation process in ways that will further harm the United States reputation in the eyes of the international community. The American people deserve better.

O.K., I admit it, I can’t keep up with the sequence of her face lifts. This photo you’re using here, was this from two face lifts ago or five?
hypocrisy is dogma with the Democrats
MacGuyver? Before , during and after Pelosi chin twist
Democrats can’t be shamed by catching them in lies or flip flops. Lying is a skill highly prized by demos (and Mitt).
She never fails us does she?
Two faced bitch! literally and figuratively.
Great picture of San Fran Nan.
With all bullshit that Obama and the Dems have pulled since he took office, you gotta think that when we take back the government, there is going to be some kind of retribution.
Or at least, if I was in charge, I’d do everything they did…
I’d “deem” things passed that they don’t like, pull all night Christmas Day sessions and votes, kill the filibuster, change the rules, etc.
But alas, we have Boehner in charge, at least for a little while longer.
“Pelosi” is Italian for “lying sack of shit.”
It is fascinating that Reid and Pelosi, the current majority leader and the former Speaker, cheer the executive branch as it exercises powers it does not have and debases the senate and by implication the house. The democrap emasculation of the legislative branch is breathtaking. The destruction of the separation of powers will have long term negative effects.
We are no longer a nation of laws. The cancer began with Wilson and with Obama it is now stage IV.
We are so fucked.
The future GOP candidate needs to bring up the hypocrisy of this administration at the presidential debates. After all these are the facts. I doubt that America is able to connect the dots however.
@tommysixscrs,
The moderators will never ask O about his 24/7 dirty pool.
Why are her lips so tight? What is she trying to swallow?
I think I see pubic hair curling out the top of that shirt.
John Bolton was the best thing at the U.N. since the Reagan Administration’s Jane Kirkpatrick. God bless “The ‘Stache”!
She wasn’t getting rich during Bush’s administration. Becoming a multi-multi-millionaire on back door deals changes a girl.
The good die young….nuf said…..
the rats are a mangy lot of liars thieves and whores who tell the story of the day with no regard for the truth or the damage done to the presidency. the rats are the lowest form of life , they elevate the slug to new height quite frequetly with their mindless drivel. they will pay the ultimate price when the people revolt in a violent extermination of the vermin the rats are.
I read yesterday that the SC has accepted the case and is actually going to look into the usurpers eligibility for the position of president. Should they find that he is not a natural born American I sincerely hope a case is brought against this witch and that she be found guilty of failing to vet this impostor.
When these people finally get what they want and the SHTF, these pukes had better leave the country, else they will be dragged down the steps of their respective capitol buildings where they will most certainly have their brains blown-out by those of us who truly disgusted and outraged by this dictatorship. I mean honestly, Nancy, do you REALLY think we’re going to just sit by and let you take it all away? Do you really believe you’re going to be allowed to just continue on with your agenda to destroy this country? Sorry, BITCH, but I’d much rather go out in color than in some gulag that you maniacs have planned for us.
Barry has proven beyond any shadow of a doubt that he is not the least bit interested in the rule-of-law and that he is determined to undermine and destroy everything that Americans hold dear. So what have we got to lose? Everything and nothing. All things considered, it’s worth the stretch. You are not going to get away with it Barry, Harry and Scary. One way or the other, it all comes out in the wash.
Sic Semper Tyrannis!!!
Nod for a second…….this shit is what happens…..be ever watchful, ever alert…participate……its your country….
“The American people deserve better.” –Pelosi
Yes, Nancy, they do. Better than you and your leader, Obozo–aka King Barry the First.
Is that a photo of Madcow’s dad?
Looks like she got hit in the face with a bag full of nickels.
This is the product you get from closing down the loony bins. All the nuts migrated to Washington DC.
she’s just figuring this out now, years later?
To say Nancy is a hypocrite is a gross understatement. IMHO she actually loves a lie. Relishes in them. Admires the subtleties of telling them. Ecstatically rejoices in the gullibility of those who receive them. As a Christian I believe what Christ said when he stated that Satan was the father of all lies and those who love and make lies are of Satan and not of God.
Pray for our nation.
Pray for the intellectually blind to see.
Pray for the stubbornly deaf to hear.
Pray for wisdom.
With elected leaders like these…we could use the prayers.
Nancy Pelosi is a damned hypocrite? Ya don’t say. When will that Botox-addicted gasbag finally retire?
Shut up your damn clucking you mindless old hen your giving this old shorebird a headache with your stupid clucking
