Pelosi's blatant lie about the TEA Party rally's

The great ol' Nancy Pelosi took to the mic and camera yesterday to speak out about the TEA party rallies.

Here is what she said on KTVU-SF San Francisco:

"What they want is a continuation of the failed economic policies of President George Bush which got us in the situation we are in now. What we want is a new direction. … This [tea party] initiative is funded by the high end — we call call it astroturf, it’s not really a grassroots movement. It’s astroturf by some of the wealthiest people in America to keep the focus on tax cuts for the rich instead of for the great middle class."

Astroturfing is used to describe fake grassroots campaigns.

Apparently, Pelosi has no problem when George Soros is funding known far left groups like MoveOn.org who smeared Petraeus. Where was she speaking out on that? Soros himself does not believe in victory in Iraq and wants to keep America from achieving it.

"The war on terror cannot be won," he has said.

She clearly supports Soros as she appointed as her Senior Counsel, Joseph Onek. Onek is also a Senior Policy Analyst for two organizations funded by the Austrian-born billionaire, the Open Society Institute (OSI) and the Open Society Policy Center (OSPC).

So long as a protest or rally's funding come from wealthy liberals then its all okay. Interesting!
