Nancy tells a whopper

Q. Is Nancy Pelosi lying?
A. Are her lips moving?

In that interview, Nancy Pelosi also said that the current Congress is “a mockery” whose current 17% approval rating is well deserved. The words GLASS HOUSE come to mind. Gallup says it is normal for split Congresses (like the 112th) to have lower ratings than one-party dominant Congresses (like the 111th).

Yet at a comparable time (i.e., the early spring of the 2d year) in the 111th Democrat Supermajority Congress’ tenure, when 46% of Americans were registered Democrat or leaned Democrat, Nancy Pelosi’s Congress clocked in with a pathetic 16% approval rating.

Forty percent, Ms Pelosi? You wish!

    Go to Debt to the Penny, and search on the period 1/3/2007 – 5/1/2012.

    Look at the two different components that combine to make up the Total Public Debt Outstanding:

    Debt Held by the Public

    Intragovernmental Holdings

    I assume that “Intragovernmental Holdings” represents the I.O.U.s that get created when surplus Social Security (FICA) tax revenues are consumed into the general operating budget.

    Take a look at what has happened since the Democrats took majority control on 1/3/2007:

    “Intragovernmental Holdings” has gone up $1 Trillion, from $3.8T to $4.8T.

    But the Democrats have MORE THAN DOUBLED the “Debt Held by the Public”… which they increased from $4.9T to $10.9T!

    In less than 5 years and 4 months, Democrats raised the “Debt Held by the Public” by SIX TRILLION DOLLARS… an increase of 122%!

    I repeat:
    In less than 5 years and 4 months, Democrats have MORE THAN DOUBLED the “Debt Held by the Public” (of which, China holds a significant share). They did this after saying in 2007 & 2008:

    After years of historic deficits, this 110th Congress will commit itself to a higher standard: pay-as-you-go, no new deficit spending. Our new America will provide unlimited opportunity for future generations, not burden them with mountains of debt.

    – New Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 01/04/2007

    The problem is, is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents – #43 added $4 trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back — $30,000 for every man, woman and child. That’s irresponsible. It’s unpatriotic.
