New Book Reveals Pelosi Hid Her Role In Housing Crisis





[From article]
In a just-released book, former FCIC member Peter Wallison says that a Democratic Congress worked with the commission's Democratic chairman to whitewash the government's central role in the mortgage debacle. The conspiracy helped protect some of the Democrats' biggest stars from scrutiny and accountability while helping justify the biggest government takeover of the financial sector since the New Deal.
Wallison's sobering, trenchantly written "Hidden in Plain Sight: What Really Caused the World's Worst Financial Crisis and Why It Could Happen Again" reveals that the Democrat-led panel buried key data proving that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and other federal agencies pushed the housing market over the subprime cliff. The final FCIC report put the blame squarely on Wall Street.
In 2009, then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appointed her California pal Phil Angelides, a long-time Democrat operative, to lead the commission. The fix seemed to be in, and Wallison's account of the inner workings of the 10-member body confirms it.
[. . .]
"The FCIC majority misused its mandate for political purposes," Wallison writes, adding that the panel made sure its findings supported Democrat demands for a "new New Deal" that would put even more of the banking industry under federal control.
Democrats passed the Dodd-Frank Act in July 2010, six months before the FCIC released its report — "a clear demonstration that the Democratic Congress knew well in advance exactly what this well-controlled commission would say." After Dodd-Frank shockingly left Fannie and Freddie untouched, the FCIC excused the glaring oversight by exonerating the toxic twins and their affordable-housing masters at HUD.
As a result, Fannie and Freddie, now under full federal control, are back making low down payment loans to low-income borrowers, and the Dodd-Frank-mandated Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is forcing banks to ignore credit risks in the name of affordable housing.
A corrupt investigation led to corrupt reforms.

[From article]
On Wednesday, Portland, Ore. police arrested Terrence Patrick Bean, who has been charged with two felony counts of having sex with a minor last year. This man is not just any old guy accused of having sex with a 15-year-old – he's a big-money Democratic donor and liberal political activist with connections inside the Obama White House. Bean raised more than a half-million dollars for Obama's 2012 re-election campaign.
"Bean has been one of the state's biggest Democratic donors and an influential figure in gay rights circles in the state," reports oregonlive.com. "He helped found two major national political groups, the Human Rights Campaign and the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund and has been a major contributor for several Democratic presidential candidates, including Barack Obama."
A search of the Federal Election Commission's campaign-finance database turns up thousands in donations every cycle by Bean to the Democratic Party's most powerful leaders, including Hillary Clinton, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Sen. Dick Durbin, and Rep. Barney Frank, among others. Photos of Bean posted online show him flying on Air Force One with Obama.
The scandal is escalating. Thursday, according to local media, Kiah Loy Lawson, allegedly 66-year-old Bean's 25-year-old former boyfriend, was arrested by the Portland Sex Crimes Unit for sexually abusing the same boy. After the relationship between the two men ended, Lawson went public with claims that Bean had a practice of secretly videotaping himself having sex with others.

Pelosi Declares Voters Ignorant, They Elected Her




[From article]
Pelosi went on to say that 50% of Americans don’t even know there are mid-term elections and how that needs to change. In the next breath, she said that “people are very wise.” Maher asked her how it could be that half the country doesn’t realize there are mid-term elections and be very wise at the same time.

Pelosi Helps Fund $1 billion Rail Project to Benefit Contributor




[From article]
A new report suggested that liberal billionaire Tom Steyer’s hedge fund profited from a $1 billion San Francisco light rail project pushed by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. Steyer was also a big supporter of Pelosi.
Despite being quick to criticize conservative political donors, the morning and evening news shows on ABC, CBS and NBC have all ignored the allegation since the Washington Free Beacon broke the story Aug. 12.



According to Washington Free Beacon, Pelosi “steered more than a billion dollars in federal financing” to a transportation project to provide light rail access to the Mission Bay neighborhood in San Francisco. This access helped cause the property value of land owned by Steyer’s hedge fund, Farallon Capital Management, to spike. Farallon has since sold all but two of those properties. Steyer gave at least $5,000 to Pelosi in 2011 alone.
[. . .]
Steyer has pledged $100 million to Democratic candidates this election cycle, to ensure that the Keystone Pipeline doesn’t get approved.

No Need To Read The Letter, Just Answer It



US Rep. Michael Capuano with former US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who explained about Obama's Health Care Bill, "We have to pass the bill in order to learn what is in it." 


US Rep. Capuano, who extended The Pelosi doctrine to letters from constituents.

Have US Congressmen given up on ever learning how to read? We know they do not need to read the bills they vote on making them into laws. But now it appears they do not read letters from their own constituents who elect them. I do not know who is more to blame--voters who elect these bozos or the bozos themselves.

[Letter to US Rep. Michael Capuano (D-MA)

Dear Mike Capuano,
You must be thinking of some other constituent's letter.  I wrote that if the State was getting
rid of shooter games at MassPike rest areas, we should look into changing the toxic atmosphere
in our halfway houses for juvenile offenders(I worked at one.)  At times, all 3 floors had  violent rap,
violent videogames, and violent movies on a jumbo screen going simultaneously.
To build a true therapeutic community costs money: instead, staff bonded with their charges over these games
and rewarded kids with increased access to it.  Gunfire, screaming, explosions, blood:
that's our babysitter!

Yours in gun control and other kinds of control, too, I hope,
Ian

On AprJuly2625 20132004, at 1:47 PM, Congressman Michael E. Capuano wrote:

Dear Mr. MacKinnon:

Thank you for contacting me to express your concerns that violent video games are receiving unfair blame in the wake of recent tragedies, such as that in Newtown, Connecticut. I agree that holding video games responsible for violent behavior is unproductive and that what our country needs is to implement real reforms that address gun violence.

Pelosi District Gets Waivers From Obamacare

[From article]
"Yes, amid House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi's congressional district, a cluster of San Francisco small businesses is among the latest waiver recipients. At least two dozen Bay Area companies -- including bars, restaurants, hotels, tourist shops, real-estate and auto firms -- have secured temporary, one-year reprieves from the federal law.

Ignoring Recent History?

Politician progeny Pelosi promised no deficit spending and the most ethical Congress ever. She delivered enormous deficit spending and the most lawless Congress in history. She remains in leadership of US House. Why should anyone believe Andrew Cuomo, the son of a New York Governor?

Pelosi Fading

[From article]
"Speaker Nancy Pelosi is famously in no danger—she won her seat with 72 % of the vote in 2008—but it probably means something that she appears to have gone missing from the national scene. CBS, in March, had her at 11% approval among registered voters.)
[. . .]
There is not a Democrat who can say, 'I was not part of the spending explosion that threatens you and your country.' It's the one thing they can't defend themselves against. They don't want to stop spending."

Obama's Self Image

[From article]
"Another reason Obama suffers from an absurdly grand view of himself in history is that when he lo0oks up and down his flank at his fellow warriors in this great battle, he sees Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.
In such a land of silly midgets, Obama truly is a titan."

Sorry Charley...


No more Star Kist Tuna for me ....

[SNOPES" VALIDATES SOME FACTS BELOW:
Snopes explanation is at this link

http://www.snopes.com/politics/pelosi/americansamoa.asp


Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's home district
includes San Francisco .
Star Kist Tuna's headquarters are in San Francisco , Pelosi's home district.
Star Kist is owned by Del Monte Foods and is a major contributor to Pelosi.
Star Kist is the major employer in American Samoa employing 75% of the Samoan work force.
Paul Pelosi, Nancy 's husband, owns $17 million dollars of Star Kist stock.
In January, 2007 when the minimum wage was increased from $5.15 to $7.25,
Pelosi had American Samoa exempted from the increase
so Del Monte would not have to pay the higher wage.
This would make Del Monte products less expensive than that of its competitors.
When the huge bailout bill was passed,
Pelosi added an earmark to the final bill
adding $33 million dollars for an "economic development credit in American Samoa "
Pelosi has called the Bush Administration "CORRUPT" and many other things !!!
How do you spell "HYPOCRISY" ?
SHE'S SHAMELESS....
