Wake Up America – by Susan Duclos
It isn’t often a far leftist liberal Democrat gets booed at the liberal annual conference the Netroots Nation, but it happened to Nancy Pelosi as she tried to defend Barack Obama’s domestic spying program.
Via Politico:
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi was booed by progressive activists Saturday for defending President Obama on the NSA’s surveillance programs and suggesting that alleged leaker Edward Snowden broke the law.
Speaking in a wide-ranging Q&;A session at this year’s Netroots Nation conference, Pelosi said it’s unfair to equate Obama and former President George W. Bush on the issue of surveillance.
“People on the far right are saying oh, this is the fourth term of President Bush,” the California Democrat said. “Absolutely, positively not so.”
As Pelosi was saying the country needs a “balance” between security and privacy, Marc Perkel, a 57-year-old activist from Gilroy, Calif., started shouting at Pelosi during her answer and was escorted out of the room.
“It’s not a balance. It’s not constitutional!” he yelled. “No secret laws!”
Others in the room began shouting as well, saying things like “Leave him alone!” or “That’s what a police state looks like right there!”
This comes on the heels of of news that the Obama administration has charged the NSA leaker, Edward Snowden with espionage and that the top secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) has ruled against the Department of Justice and determined it has no objection to the release of a court opinion stating that portions of the NSA domestic spying program was illegal and unconstitutional.
Thanks for sharing this and for the link!
Nancy Pelosi is a haggardly old prune who needs to retire before she does even more damage to the country than she has already done. If Pelosi had played the part of George Baily in It’s a Wonderful Life, the theatre audience, as well as Clarence, would have determined that the world would have been a better place if she had never been born.
Pelosi’s only retirement benefit will be a hemp rope around her skanky azzed neck!
Even that is almost too much!!
I like myself does not have his safety enhanced through state secrecy.i can handle the truth.it’s the lies that are killing me.
why not just be honest and free wherefore what anyone is up to is a matter of reading the newspaper rather than a matter of wondering who owns it.rupert Murdoch is not my cup of tea.
NWO Hatr- Video added on the original if you want to go grab it to add here.
Rope. Lots and lots of rope to hang these treasonous POS’s.
Thanks, Susan.
