GLENN: So Nancy Pelosi, who's the one who got healthcare done. If it wasn't for Nancy Pelosi, I don't think you'd have healthcare today. She gets it done. She's a radical. Now she goes to meet, what is it, America's future now? There's this summit going on in Washington over the next three days and at this summit over the next three days are all of these real diehard radicals. Nancy Pelosi gets up to speak and Code Pink is there. Because it's a roomful of progressives and revolutionaries. They start feasting on each other. Listen. Just happened.
PELOSI: Let her speak. Let her speak. Let her speak. Let her speak.
GLENN: Listen to this. I mean, this doesn't happen at tea parties.
PELOSI: I'm trying to listen to you, but some of your friends are not making that possible.
GLENN: Right. She's seen this kind of rhetoric before. And it's frightening.
PAT: Frightening.
GLENN: She's okay with this. But tea parties.
PAT: Terrible people.
VOICE: We're going to pay the price. We supported Obama and we supported you. We supported the campaign. Now 21 states are begging for money to help us save the community.
PELOSI: Right. And I support that.
GLENN: Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. Stop right here. Listen to the... emotion, okay? This is what Nancy Pelosi warned about. She's seen this kind of rhetoric. She's heard this before. Listen to the emotion. "We voted for Barack Obama. We supported you. You told us you would support us and we're trying to save our communities and you won't give us the money!" That's what she's asking for. We want our money. We were promised and we're being sold out. Remember, these people are not politicians. They believe in something. They're revolutionaries. You don't really want to piss them off. Listen to what the Nancy Pelosi politician says now.
PELOSI: Support that. And in this legislation we included the class act which takes us part way down with that, part
GLENN: Stop! She is a progressive! They are revolutionaries. It takes us part way down the path. I don't want part way! Do you see the trouble that they are in? It is exactly what the communists are saying to their politicians now in Europe. You lied to us! You told us! You promised us! Unless you speak the language of a revolution, you don't know. I think people like Harry Reid, I can't — I can't say that Nancy Pelosi doesn't know. She's lived in San Francisco too long. But she is in a vineyard and there's not a lot of revolutionaries on vineyards. People like Harry Reid or Joe Biden, he's not a revolutionary. He's just a politician, weasely, snakey, oily politicians. That's what those people are. How many people — Pat, how many people have I talked to and you've been part of conversations where I'm saying to politicians and they will say something, no, no, no, no, no. You are not hearing them. You don't understand their language. I did this with Bill O'Reilly even: You don't understand their language. How many times have I said that to reasonable people and reasonable politicians and they just, they don't understand it because they don't speak the language. Now how many people from Venezuela, Argentina, Cuba, Russia, the Eastern Bloc, how many of those people have I met with and you've witnessed and they Saul say what is wrong with America?
PAT: Oh, yeah, all the time.
GLENN: They don't hear it.
PAT: Almost everybody from the Soviet Bloc.
GLENN: Almost everybody.
PAT: Almost everybody from Cuba, almost everybody from, you know, South American countries feel the same way.
