Kliphnote: If the, so called, 99% opened their eyes and got their heads out
of their collective Butts(some like it there) they would see they are being
played like a fiddle by Pelosi and the rest of the Limousine Liberals.
You people are such naive fools, you make me laugh.
Nancy Pelosi, Dianne Feinstein Are Stinking Rich

Here is something that might inspire the dwindling Occupiers to return to their tents: While our very own Nancy Pelosi was pushing to extend unemployment benefits that will, ideally, keep Spam on the tables of the 99 percent -- and provide a boatload of jobs! -- the San Francisco Democrat has risen to become the ninth-richest member of Congress.
Pelosi has consistently expressed her support for the polemical Occupy Movement, making statements like "God Bless the 99 percent." But we don't need Pelosi's spoken support. We need her money!
According to the Center For Responsive Politics, our San Francisco reps have a total net worth of greater than $310 million. That includes Pelosi's whopping net worth of $196,299,990; Sen. Dianne Feinstein's $93,707,020; and Congresswoman Jackie Speier, who is the 31st-richest rep, with a net worth of $20,527,999.
Meanwhile, Senator Barbara Boxer is valued at a little more than $5 million.
Who's the richest member of Congress? That'd be California's Darrell Issa (R-Vista), who's worth more than $700 million. And the poorest sod on the hill? Alcee Hastings (D, Florida) is millions in the red. Poor Alcee, he's living off coupons, just like the rest of us.
To quote Pelosi during a recent speech about economic inequality: "Something is wrong with this picture."

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi was not dreaming of a white Christmas.Published : Tuesday, 27 Dec 2011, 9:11 AM EST
For the third year in a row, the California Democrat shacked up in a sun-drenched, beachside hotel at Historic Ka'upulehu in Kona on the island of Hawaii, the Hawaii Reporter reported this week. For the past two years, Pelosi reserved a posh suite that fetches $10,000 a night.
The Four Seasons Resort Hualalai offers visitors beachfront dining, fashion boutiques and Jack Nicklaus signature golf, the paper reported. In years past, the paper reported, local taxpayers coughed up $34,000 for police detail to escort Pelosi around the island.
President Obama and his family are also spending the holidays at the tropical paradise during a 17-day vacation in Kailua, Oahu.
