- Wargalas, on 08/25/2008, -6/+264Nancy,
Why did you push for an increase in minimum wage, yet oppose it for America Samoa, which has a Starkist plant who happens to be headquartered in your district? Don't you think it reeks of hypocrisy and politics?
Nancy,
Why did you proclaim to "end the culture of corruption" then turn around and put a suspected corrupt member of your own party on a committee that has access to classified intelligence? (William Jefferson and the Homeland Security Committee)
Nancy,
Why did you promise to end the war in Iraq by defunding it, then cave time and time again?
Nancy,
Why do you complain about the federal debt, but continue to spend lavishly on yourself and other Democrats. For example, you spent $16,000 on flowers for your inaugural party.
Nancy,
When are you going to start listening to the American public and start balancing the budget instead of blaming George W. Bush for your failures? You are the Speaker of the House. Don't you think that you bear some responsibility for what's going on right now? - Volfie99, on 08/25/2008, -34/+226"Why haven't you impeached Bush yet??"
That's the only question I can think of... - jakdracula, on 08/25/2008, -5/+184Dear Nancy: Why did you fire so many of your own employees for trying to join a union, but then take union money for your campaign?
- jdmiday, on 08/25/2008, -25/+172'Why do you hate America?'
- dburka, on 08/25/2008, -5/+143Go to the Dialogg page for the Speaker Pelosi interview to ask your questions: http://digg.com/dialogg/Nancy_Pelosi_1
- skibob1027, on 08/25/2008, -16/+122Cool idea, but I hope next time it's someone a little less nauseating...
- inactive, on 08/25/2008, -7/+105Pelosi? You got a lot of 'splainin' to do!
- blackz0r, on 08/25/2008, -8/+101George W. Bush: Great president, or... the GREATEST president?
- CMuffa, on 08/25/2008, -3/+92Why bother? You're only going to weed out the hard questions, and present softball questions to her. Then we'll have to pretend like you're doing us a favor and appreciate your efforts. No thanks.
- vexingmodstwo, on 08/25/2008, -7/+69A debut with Pelosi?
I guess you can't go anywhere but up from that starting point. - inactive, on 08/25/2008, -5/+69When watching or listening to Nancy Pelosi speak, I suggest the following:
1. Keep a vomit bag nearby.
2. Remove all throwable objects from the vicinity.
3. Warn your family and friends that you'll be screaming at the TV or computer.
Suggested questions:
1. Ms. Pelosi, who put you in charge of "saving the planet"?
2. Why do you insist on putting the country at such grave risk by keeping us dependent on foreign oil?
3. Why are you insisting on tapping the strategic petroleum reserve knowing full well that it is there strictly for an emergency and also knowing that it will have a NEGLIGIBLE effect on prices? - Wargalas, on 08/25/2008, -3/+61Nancy,
How do you explain this?

On NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday, the speaker twice seemed to suggest that natural gas – an energy source she favors – is not a fossil fuel.
“I believe in natural gas as a clean, cheap alternative to fossil fuels,” she said at one point. Natural gas “is cheap, abundant and clean compared to fossil fuels,” she said at another.
Update: “She knows it [natural gas] is a fossil fuel but includes it because compared to other fossil fuels (coal and oil) it burns more cleanly,” said Pelosi’s spokesman, Brendan Daly. “Also, it is plentiful domestically and cheaper.”
You oppose drilling, but you're for natural gas?? Do you not understand that to get natural gas, you have to DRILL?!!?!?!? - radiofrequency, on 08/25/2008, -8/+58Ask Nancy when we can expect her resignation.
- RavagesOfTime, on 08/25/2008, -3/+47I almost wish they weren't doing this. It won't end well.
Either she'll be (whether she deserves it or not) eaten alive by diggers, or she'll get soft balled, and people will want the digg staff strung up. - radiofrequency, on 08/25/2008, -1/+42Nancy, what do you call a speaker of the house who tells the American people she is "for labor unions" but forbids any unionized labor employees in her own family winery in Napa?
- silverzone, on 08/25/2008, -11/+47Wow all this political interaction on Digg lately (with the Katie Couric thing as well) is awesome. A great way to get questions to politicians.
- Brownds, on 08/25/2008, -8/+44Because she & Bush work for the same corporate douche bags and you got to be a "team" player.
- inactive, on 08/25/2008, -7/+42Hey Nancy - Why does your book 'Know Your Power' suck so horribly? People generally try to make themselves look better in books, you successfully equaled the level crap that you are in one tidy book. And you sold a whopping 2000 some books in your opening week.
Also thanks for turning off the cameras and lights in congress so you could take your deserving break.

Nuke the Whales biotch. Don't worry, your questions will be censored so you can give some great puff answers.
America Hates You,
Klietz - bugninja, on 08/25/2008, -1/+31Dialogg will be useless without the right person to ask the tough questions propose by this community.
They then have to be tough enough to actually GET ANSWERS.
Who's doing the talking? - ChayesFSS, on 08/25/2008, -3/+32Please ask here how one person can fail so horribly with the release of a book?
- FLUX, on 08/25/2008, -0/+25she is for natural gas because the is heavily invested(over 100,000 shares in the ipo) in T BOONE Pickens plan that calls for wind and natural gas subsidies from the govt. That is also why she wont let a vote come to the floor to end the moratorium on off shore drilling
But remember she is all for eliminating the culture of corruption - inactive, on 08/25/2008, -2/+27Would buy from again!
- strictnein, on 08/25/2008, -4/+30Dear Nancy: Why is this in "Technology » Industry News"?
- inactive, on 08/25/2008, -6/+28I'd rather post a question to a "Stone." I'd probably be able to get more done.
This will do as good as her book sales. "Nothing at all!"
Your better off talking to an infant! - socket, on 08/25/2008, -2/+24Are you at all intimidated by the fact Cindy Sheehan has made it on the ballot for November?
- haydukeqc, on 08/25/2008, -6/+27Pelosi, but why?
- iHack3r, on 08/25/2008, -14/+34Awesome. Nice work!
- thereisnostate, on 08/25/2008, -6/+28Why do you put Israel before America.
- costumemaker, on 08/25/2008, -5/+24backstabbing to her constituents i believe is what you were looking for. I have NEVER been this disappointed in a politician before.
- gigasquid, on 08/25/2008, -2/+20Of course Pelosi is free to choose which questions she answers and which not? Which makes this Dialogg a bit of a toothless dog.
- shiftclick, on 08/25/2008, -3/+23She did such a GREAT job with The Peoples Republic of California. Can't wait to see what she f_cks up next.
- govsucks, on 08/25/2008, -4/+20Mrs. Pelosi, In a nation known as the home of the free, shouldn't I be free to chose my own retirement plan?
Deer in headlights..... - ericdano, on 08/25/2008, -4/+19Nancy, why do you continue to play the blame game? You promised this and that when you got elected and won the Congress. But nothing has happened. Now, while peddling your "book", you are blaming people left and right. Politics is not a blame game. It is to work together to find common ground. You don't do that while belittling people.
So, when is the blame game going to stop and you get some work done? Obviously not when you won a majority in Congress. When a Democrat wins the White House? When you get 90% of the Political system Democrat? - RobotBuddha, on 08/25/2008, -0/+13That's exactly why I can't get much enthusiasm for this idea. Politicians worm their way out of giving answers to even the most banal questions when cameras are on them. A difficult question, when they can worm all they want, is probably only going to get an answer of "That's an interesting question that one is struggling with. For....America!"
- diggydo, on 08/25/2008, -0/+13Hmmm her interest in natural gas wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that she's invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in T. Boone Pickens company would it.
Pickens has plan to replace the use of NG for electricity production with wind power then use the "excess" NG to power cars. He is also behind a proposition in California to get $6 Billion bond passed to fund the development of NG fueling stations in California. Along with major interest in the wind farms, guess who has a major interest in NG ... T. Boone. - RobotBuddha, on 08/25/2008, -1/+13Indeed, you need someone who'll actually say "That's a platitude, not an answer to the question I asked. Answer or this interview is over."
- melonhedd, on 08/25/2008, -4/+15win is not an adjective
- Lothar76, on 08/25/2008, -1/+12Just because we find flaws with Democrats doesn't mean we want to elect Republicans.
- badbadman2, on 08/25/2008, -1/+11Yes RobotBuddha The interviewer has to be firm otherwise this venture will be no different from the MSM that is so heavily criticised on here.
Make this truly revolutionary, Make it unmissable and I guarantee if it gets the attention of the world then the TV suits will follow the example like sheep. Prove to them, there is an appetite for real debate and the Bill O Reillys of the world will fade into history as an embarassing footnote. - Bith8654, on 08/25/2008, -3/+13Seriously submit that, but I would make sure you have links to articles or references or something so she can't pull something like "that's not how it happened" or the famous "I don't recall"
- inactive, on 08/25/2008, -6/+16Then you are by-far a, "Wack-job!"
I'm Sorry, Really! But you are. - dburka, on 08/25/2008, -1/+11Jay Adelson, Digg's CEO, is interviewing this first Digg Dialogg.
- Bith8654, on 08/25/2008, -1/+11Don't forget to throw in a question about her lack of a flag pin or something, that way everyone will know that this isn't just some no-name interview, it's just as unbiased and legitimate as the TV!
- neozeed, on 08/25/2008, -5/+15What ass? Whose?
Where is the IMPEACHMENT?!!?!?!?!? - LeeSoong, on 08/25/2008, -4/+13Nancy - your opinion as a woman:
Mr. Obama, Hot or Not ? - ericdano, on 08/25/2008, -2/+11Come on, Nancy "supports our troops". That is her out. You want to hold her responsible? I think I'm going to do a Colbert "Wagg of the finger" towards you sir! ;-)
And what about her flying costs? - InetRoadkill, on 08/25/2008, -7/+16The senate vote count excuse doesn't hold water. That in no way absolves the house from opening hearings when such a blatant list of crimes by the executive branch demand attention.
The reality is that Pelosi would have to reveal her part in approving the illegal wiretaps and torture policies that Bush is now in trouble for. - Spuy767, on 08/25/2008, -4/+13Thanks Digg, now I'll probably heave a brick at my monitor having to listen to any words from that whore's forked tongue.
- HillerMylife, on 08/25/2008, -3/+12Pelosi has been a big disappointment. Hopefully some hard-hitting questions will get through that broadcast journalists haven't seen fit to ask.
- Mier, on 08/25/2008, -7/+16I wonder if digg will give equal time to McCain or some Republicans. Somehow the sticker on the top of KRose's laptop says NO.
