Nancy Pelosi blocked credit card reform while investing millions in exclusive Visa stock offering

Nancy Pelosi blocked credit card reform while investing millions in exclusive Visa stock offering. The Bay Area’s biggest botox stash was invited to participate in the highly sought-after stock IPO “almost two weeks after a potentially damaging piece of legislation for Visa, the Credit Card Fair Fee Act, had been introduced in the House.” If they’re gonna Occupy Wall St, they should occupy Congress also. The two are joined at the hip – right where their wallets are located.

  • And now "Chuck-U" Schumer wants to "save" us for those horrible $5 Lay Away fees this Christmas--er--Holiday Season. Thank God I have him and the princess looking out for me. If I didn't have my government looking out for my best interest (it's for the children, you know) then how would I ever survive?

  • Of course she did. I guess Nancy forgot to drain the swamp that leads to her office. Yet she and others claim to stand with those doing the occupying. Pelosi is a hypocrite and the occupiers are all fools, easily manipulated and then cast aside once they are of no use. Just ask Cindy Sheehan

    • Yes, she is a hypocrite and yes they are fools. Sadly hypocrisy is not against the law and stupidity doesn't disqualify you from voting. You won't stop the Pelosi's of the world for using stupid people to their advantage. And you definitely can't fix stupid. The trick is getting the ones in the middle to change. Unfortunately, a lot of them are just stupid enough to get fooled again.....

  • They discussed this on "60 Minutes" tonight on a report on Congressmen getting special perks based on the information they receive. The problem was they focused on four Republicans before they got to Pelosi. And then at the end they focused on two heroic Democratic Congressman trying to fix the system. I know they're horribly biased but I often watch anyways.

    • I'll be blunt here and hopefully you'll not be offended. If you watch the shows, you're helping them stay on the air and reporting in the direction they're reporting. No viewers = no sponsors. No sponsors = no biased tv show. No biased tv show, well you get the idea.

  • The only thing ol' Plastic Face is draining is the taxpayer's wallets. Now I see how the douchebag got a 26% increase in her wealth last year.
