‘The Mask of Nancy Pelosi’: The Force of Tragedy

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

“On the subject of tragedy: since the U.S. general mid-term election of November 2006, when the U.S. Congress had an estimated 70% popularity with the U.S. population, until now, less than a full year later, the estimated popularity of the Congress has fallen below 11%, a fall largely due to the role of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. For similar causes, the U.S. dollar has also fallen, that at a presently accelerating rate. This threatened ruin of the prospects of the Democratic Party which Mrs. Pelosi’s misconduct has done much to produce, has now imperilled the continued existence of the original constitutional form of our republic.”
