PolitiFact : Pelosi Lies

[Jen]

Pelosi said:

"Really, we should be afraid of this court," Pelosi said. "The five guys who start determining what contraceptions are legal. Let's not even go there."

The five guys on the SCOTUS said no such thing.
That was NOT in their ruling.

Indeed, one of Pelosi’s later comments from the news conference -- when she focused on the issue of who pays for contraceptives, rather than whether they remain legal -- seems to be on firmer ground. She expressed concern "that five men could get down to specifics of whether a woman should use a diaphragm and (whether) she should pay for it herself, or her boss. It's not her boss' business. The business is whatever his business is, but it's not what contraception she uses."

Again.......... The SCOTUS made no such finding.
Nothing.
And today rumors say that Pelosi's people say she "misspoke".
No.
She lied.

Pelosi is retarded (yes retarded). She is perhaps the most brain damaged creature in government.

She certainly is looking and sounding that way and that's all we have to go on.

Wow, not just lying, but really DUMB lying.

I'm wondering if there'll be any liberal who comes into this thread and explains how Nutsy Pelosi is not only honest but somehow also correct.

We both know it can't be done.

Do we really need politicfact to tell us Pelosi lied?

Just a cursory/remedial reminder here:
The lefty deconstructionist fruit loop Democrat mission is so utterly just that all things are ok in service to the agenda. It's mission purity. All is spotless by virtue of the ultimate destination.

I'm getting fairly sick of just letting that ride, Rick.

She was wearing her bed head and bed face when she made those statements so no telling where they had to go to dig her up for it. Puns intended.

I have a very clear memory of Hillary Clinton standing on the stage at the 2008 DNC (that's still funny) holding up her index finger and saying very solemnly "they will take your choice away" referring to McCain and Palin.
Militant liberal women devoted to the "cause" have no respect for the intelligence of women or for the way our government works. The fact that one will stand there and imply that a president can just overturn RVW by executive order, and another will come out an lie about this ruling and liberal women everywhere don't stand up and call BS on them....is all the evidence we need. Unfortunately, there's so much more.

These women have an opportunity placed before them. They could easily explain the ruling honestly and thereby end some of the divisive confusion and anger. But no. Instead they'll feed on it.....for him.

*EDIT*
When does Pelosi's and Clinton's 'free will' come into play? When you and your like minded decide it should?

This ruling is a disaster. It goes against the Constitutional right this country has of Freedom of Religion. I believe it should and will be overturned.

Pelosi didn't intentionally lie. She misspoke as was determined. She's looking at the future problems this will most likely cause since this country is primarily xtian. She knows that corporations, businesses--both small and large--can determine how faith is interpreted and can decide that contraceptives of every kind are wrong and shouldn't be provided by them. They're slowly chipping away the rights of women when it comes to the control of their bodies.

The right wing religinuts and the right wing majority of the supreme court are switching tactics. Instead of going after roe v wade, they're going after contraceptives. It started with their Citizen United ruling.

How will this affect the job market for low wage women who use contraceptives if more and more businesses force the interpretation of their faith on women of different denominations of xtian faith and that NO contraceptives should be provided? It forces them to give birth because they won't be able to afford them out of pocket.

It is also an example of the right wing determining that women are second class citizens.

This ruling also says that a woman's god given 'free will' doesn't matter. More proof that they look at women as second class citizens.

To misspeak about something is stupid to talk about it and not have a clue about the subject.

Explain that. Because I sure as HELL don't understand how this ruling does ANYTHING even remotely like it.

I have already clearly stated my position. You will find the rebuttal there.

That is the lie they have decided to promote no matter what anyone else (who has actually read the ruling) thinks or says.

It was explained in my post. If you take away the ability of low wage working women's ability to afford those contraceptives out of pocket, you deny their 'free will'.
