| #10 Government expenditure never results in net job creation. Innovative R&D that no single company could afford is one area that government can create net jobs. But that is long term. But in this case, where the gov pays people to not work, is the most inefficient use of taxpayer moneys for "job creation". |

| #9 Actually, Pelosi is right (using their definition of job creation). Welfare payments are the form of government expenditures that are most likely to be spent soonest. Of course the these jobs are mostly McJobs, and are merely shifted from other areas of the economy as taxes are raised to pay for the welfare or shifted from the future if borrowed money is used to pay. Government expenditure never results in net job creation. |

| #8 I'm shocked Missus Pelosi didn't say it was to institute slavery on her wine plantation and restaurant sweat shops. Then I remembered she hires illegal aliens, which is almost as good. |

| #6 Of course, here in California (her state) noone is receiving any checks. So in effect, SHE'S THAT STUPID AND SO MUCH MORE. |

| #5 This is what happens when Nancy improvises instead of reciting the text her handlers wrote for her. |

| #3 Sadly, she really is that STUPID! I have a friend whose office was in the same federal building as Pelosi's a few years ago, and rode up from the garage with Pelosi upon numerous occasions. He said on one ride he listened to her explain that there really was no need for the CIA, since the State Department could get all the same information. She really is that STUPID! |

| #1 Pelosi just moved up a place in the line of the people I want to hit in the face with a professional grade aluminum baseball bat. |
