PELOSI — VERBATIM ON OIL

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi wants to make sure that we're ALWAYS dependent on foreign oil.

Here's from the arrogant anti-American's conversation with CNN's Wolf Blitzer, courtesy of the July 23 edition of The Wall Street Journal

"Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi in a July 17 interview with Wolf Blitzer of CNN, on a bill to allow offshore drilling for oil:

BLITZER: John Boehner, who's the Republican leader in the House, he says you have to let this come up for a vote. He says that you're walking your blue dogs, who are the moderate and conservative Democrats, and other vulnerable Democrats off a cliff by not allowing this to come up for a vote, the offshore oil drilling legislation.

PELOSI: Is that right? Well, you know, just because John Boehner, who is my friend and whom I respect, says it, doesn't make it so. . . .

BLITZER: Are you afraid if this comes up for a vote in the House you will lose, given the support for offshore oil drilling among these so-called blue dogs, or moderate Democrats, who will join with Republicans?

PELOSI: Afraid is not a word that is in my vocabulary. . . .

BLITZER: So let me get -- will you allow this issue, offshore oil drilling, to come up for a vote on the floor of the House?

PELOSI: We're going to exhaust our other remedies in terms of increasing supply in America by...

BLITZER: So the answer is no?

PELOSI: I have no plans to do so."
