DUMBACRATS: The Corrupt Ignorant Nancy Pelosi Chosen As Minority Leader. VIDEO: Pelosi's Greatest Hits...



Pelosi wins House Dem Minority Leader post, 150-43

That large margin is proof that radical anti-American progressives have infiltrated and destroyed the democratic party. Nancy Pelosi has severe mental problems, but she also has a lot of power and she's a very vindictive woman.

By a vote of 150-43, House Democrats voted for the California lawmaker as their leader over challenger Rep. Heath Shuler of North Carolina.

Votes were cast by secret ballot.

Pelosi had four members speak on her behalf in the Democrats' closed-door meeting. She was nominated by Rep. Mike Doyle of Pennsylvania, who -- according to a high level source -- asked colleagues "how can we fold on her when she's not folding on us?" Reps. Henry Cuellar (TX), Gwen Moore (WI), and Jared Polis (CO) also spoke.

Shuler was nominated by Rep. Jim Matheson of Utah. Reps. Larry Kissell (NC) and Mike Ross (AR) spoke for Shuler during the nominating process as well, with Shuler speaking on his own behalf before the votes were taken.

Pelosi's Democratic critics hoped to postpone the leadership election until after the House's Thanksgiving break. That proposal failed by a 129-68 vote earlier today.

Pelosi's second-in-command will again be Maryland's Steny Hoyer, who was elected Minority Whip by acclamation rather than by recorded vote. A compromise between Hoyer and Rep. James Clyburn, who had threatened to challenge him for the job, paved the way for Hoyer's uncontested selection for the slot.

On the other side of the aisle, Rep. John Boehner of Ohio was unanimously elected by House Republicans to serve as their leader in the next Congress.

"The job of the next Speaker is to work to restore the institution ... restore it to being the People's House," said Boehner after being voted to the top post, according to excerpts of his speech. "It's not about us; it's about them."

Also Wednesday, Virginia Rep. Eric Cantor was selected by his Republican colleagues to serve as the Majority Leader for the 112th Congress.

  1. Pelosi has ties to Soros... what she has done to America, to undermine it, making the constitution irrelevant, is priceless to Soros and she will be rewarded by him until the end of time...in his New World Order....
