In her remarks prepared for her press conference today, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) castigates Republican plans to reduce the federal budget. Pelosi says, "The federal budget should be a statement of our values, our national morals, and our priorities."

Yet she voted AGAINST the house budget plan to strengthen our families, small businesses, veterans and our Armed Forces. (House Roll Call Vote, No. 82)

<snip>

And that's to frighten the American people.

Yesterday, Leader Pelosi said: "The message from this budget is, not only is the federal government not going to be there for you, it's going to make matters worse for you..." (Pelosi Release, 10/19/05)

"House Democrats Have Obviously Gotten into the Spirit of Halloween. They're Choosing to Scare the American People," Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert.

In fact, if you want to know what they're doing, just listen to their accusations.
