Thank you, this is exactly what @originalucifer is exhibiting. They ignore all of what Pelosi has fought for over the years, simply because she's not as far left as they are. And then they categorize anyone not as far left as them as a conservative/Republican. It's an us-vs-them purity test, designed to sow division, not guild a coalition against actual conservatives/Republicans.

Pelosi was speaking FOR universal healthcare back in the 90s. By the time the ACA was up, she was pushing back against it.

Her words DO NOT match her actions. She is not an honorable person, and anyone who honors her is a brainwashed moron.

She didn't fight for shit. When her party had majorities, it frittered away concessions and suddenly "couldn't whip the votes" because "blue dogs"
