Nancy Pelosi: Republican Jews 'Being Exploited'

Nancy Pelosi is the Democrat Minority Leader in the U.S. House of Representatives.

She is the former Speaker of the House (Jan 2007 - Jan 2011).

She was interviewed on Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital With Al Hunt" to be aired this weekend.


The Weekly Standard -- July 28, 2012

House minority leader Nancy Pelosi said that she believes Republican Jews are "being exploited," but she was sure to add, "And they're smart people."

Pelosi made the comments in response to whether Jewish voters would support President Barack Obama in the presidential election later this year.

"I think [Obama] will" win the Jewish vote, Pelosi said, when pressed on the subject. "I think that he will, because the fact is when the facts get out. You know, as many of the Republicans are using Israel as an excuse, what they really want are tax cuts for the wealthy. So Israel, that can be one reason they put forth."

The interviewer then added, "That’s why some of the Republican Jewish supporters are really active."

Pelosi responded, "Well, that’s how they’re being exploited. And they’re smart people. They follow these issues. But they have to know the facts. And the fact is that President Obama has been the strongest person in terms of sanctions on Iran, which is important to Israel. He’s been the strongest person on whether it’s Iron Dome, David’s Sling, any of these weapons systems and initiatives that relate to Israel. He has been there over and over again."

Pelosi Says Republicans Use Israel to Distract (Transcript)

Well, How Important is the "Jewish" Vote ?

What a vacuous twit. Did you ever notice how the elite who have more money than God, just keep on working? I mean what's up with that? They have all this money, Duh! stop working already and screw off the rest of your life!!! Maybe they have to make some sort of pact with the "Devil" as it were? Jewish Republicans? What are there, two maybe?

Does anyone even listen to Nancy Pelosi

Yeah, they degrade black republicants too.

thanks.

Well she is half right -- all Jews are being exploited by the political process. In fact I'm hard pressed to think of a single group of people that are not being exploited. Unfortunately, people are easily manipulated into working against their own interests. The fact that creatures like Pelosi are still in Congress proves it.

"we have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it"

That sure sounds like someone with an exploitive agenda.

Gov. Sarah Palin called Nancy Pelosi a - dingbat -.

I wouldn't say they are being exploited, but they are defiantly being pandered to by Romney. This is not to say that other politicians don't do the same thing. The whole Romney Israel trip is meant to increase votes from Jews and Evangelists.
