The word “shameless” comes to mind. But then so do the words “lying sack of excrement.”
FOX Nation has the details of Nancy Pelosi’s clumsy attempt to rewrite history:
At her final press conference as House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said, “Deficit reduction has been a high priority for us. It is our mantra, pay-as-you-go.”
The numbers tell a different story.
When the Pelosi Democrats took control of Congress on January 4, 2007, the national debt stood at $8,670,596,242,973.04. The last day of the 111th Congress and Pelosi’s Speakership on December 22, 2010 the national debt was $13,858,529,371,601.09 – a roughly $5.2 trillion increase in just four years. Furthermore, the year over year federal deficit has roughly quadrupled during Pelosi’s four years as speaker, from $342 billion in fiscal year 2007 to an estimated $1.6 trillion at the end of fiscal year 2010.
There’s an old saying, Nancy, that history is written by the winners. You, unfortunately, are the loser so you have been officially stripped of the golden quill and magic ink well with which the last decade’s history will be written.
