Republicans Denounce Pelosi for Warning Against 'Incitement'
September 17, 2009
The House Republicans' top campaign chief strongly denounced Speaker Nancy Pelosi's comments that appeared to question whether today's angry conservative protests were similar to anti-gay rallies in the late 1970s that preceded the assassination of two San Francisco political leaders.
Rep. Pete Sessions (Texas), chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, said Pelosi crossed the line when she related the rhetoric of anti-gay protesters in San Francisco in 1978 -- the year Harvey Milk, the first openly gay member of the city's board of supervisors, and his political ally, Mayor George Moscone, were killed by former supervisor Dan White -- to that of contemporary conservatives while answering a question about the protests against President Obama's health-care proposals.
"The Speaker is now likening genuine opposition to assassination. Such insulting rhetoric not only undermines the credibility of her office, but it underscores the desperate attempt by her party to divert attention away from a failing agenda," Sessions said in a statement. "During one of the most important policy debates of our time, the American people have been completely abandoned by those elected representatives under her control. Voters are justifiably frustrated with Washington, and the Speaker's verbal assault on voters accomplishes nothing other than furthering her reputation for being wildly out of touch with the American people."
Unsure of who's right in this debate? Decide for yourself. Here is the full question and answer at Pelosi's weekly press briefing, held every Thursday morning:
Q: Madam Speaker, in terms of the political tone, the tone of the debate, Hoyer said earlier this week he thought it was the most vitriolic since '93-'94. And around that time we also saw acts of domestic violence, domestic terrorism. How concerned are you about the tone of the political debate, in terms of people talking about anti-government rhetoric and so on and the possibility of violence?
Speaker Pelosi: Well, I think we all have to take responsibility for our actions and our words. We are a free country, and this balance between freedom and safety is one that we have to carefully balance.
I have concerns about some of the language that is being used because I saw this, myself, in the late '70s in San Francisco. This kind of rhetoric was very frightening, and it created a climate in which violence took place.
So I wish that we would all, again, curb our enthusiasm in some of the statements that are made, so that understanding that some of the people -- the ears that it is falling on are not as balanced as the person making the statement might assume.
But, again, our country is great because people can say what they think and they believe. But I also think that they have to take responsibility for any incitement that they may cause.

Pelosi and her pals and the more liberal media really do need to stop villifying and demonizing those who do not agree with their ideas and do not support their agendas.
We are supposed to be a land of free speech and freedom of associations and open debates.
She wants a land of obedient subjects and is insulting over half the population by implying that they are murderers in disguise.
What an idiot. We can only hope that the voters in her district vote her out in 2010, but then it is the land of fruits and nuts and the real loons in the country. But she may be hanging out there all by herself. Barney Franks and Harry Reid both appear to be in election trouble in their district and opposition to them is mounting if their local polls are to be believed.
She makes me think of the old James Cagney movie where his blond "dame" of a girlfriend wouldn't shut up and he shoved a half a grapefruit in her face.
Grapefruit anyone?

Of course all those "potential assasins" managed to mass in DC, more than a million of them apparently, and not one punch was thrown, nor one shot fired. They didn't even leave trash behind. Nice try Pelosi, too bad your power days are SO over. Reptile.

Pelosi, Matthews and Carter's sentiments and comments were absurd! They all seem to continue to pull out the race card and attempt to claim that those of us who are upset with the current governments policies are radicals and now liken us to violent behaviour and now to stretch it to include assassins. What utter stupidity there is in the powers that be and the mainstream media to suggest this.
What could be there motive for setting this racially divided and violent stage? Only time will tell but something is definitely in the works.

I love the smell of desperation in the morning. It has the scent of a cow pasture. Jimmy and Nancy are spewing cow patties because they know that people see through the propaganda now. Insulting patriots will backfire on the MSM as their revenue continues to slide.

I don't want to see anyone fearful of someone else hurting them. But when you call your customers "Brown Shirts" and then come back and lecture them about speech that would inspire bad feelings.... give me a break.. and the almost tearful expression.. she is not an actress she is a bully in a female body that will do anything to shove this crap down the REPUBLICANS THROAT... Speaking of shoving down throats.. where is Barry Frank on this hate speech...

Perhaps instead of lecturing us on being responsible for what we say, she should apply that to what she and all the other parasites in congress DO!
THEY are the ones inciting by their unlawful actions, disregard for the law of the land they swore to uphold and robbing us blind.
I beg to differ with the unesteemed Speaker of the House and would submit that it is their ACTIONS which will incite any violence and THEY will be held accountable for it themselves.
And another word of caution to dear Nancy. . . .don't even think about it! We had more at the tea party than even at the inauguration. And there are millions more where those came from.

Perhaps this is what is frightening her so much. It is like the person who fears the resolve of a calm man. She must believe that when the storm comes she will be up against the wall. After all she does know what she is and what she has done.
