Pelosi: ‘Republicans Have Always Tried to Wrap Themselves in the Flag While They Denigrate It’
EXCERPT:
PELOSI: “Well, let me just say that the Republicans have always tried to wrap themselves in the flag while they denigrate it. I come from Baltimore, Maryland, originally, where the national anthem was written. And in the national anthem, my favorite line is ‘proof through the night that our flag was still there’. We have to prove through the night of this activity that they’re putting on, that our flag is still there with liberty and justice for all. But we have to run a campaign around the kitchen table issues, about jobs and access to healthcare and education, and what it means for America’s working families. That is how they make their decisions. The kitchen table is more important than the corporate boardroom table, than the cabinet table, anything. It is the most important place where decisions are made about the future.”
