Why Pelosi Won’t Release HER Tax Returns
July 28, 2012
Serving the Public Interest has worked out extraordinarily well for Pelosi.
GUESS WHY NANCY PELOSI doesn’t want to release her tax returns?????? Her net worth went up 62% last year while in Congress…when everyone else was OUT OF WORK, losing their homes, and struggling to buy gas and groceries.
That’s why the Congresswoman suddenly closed the discussion on Mitt Romney’s TAX RETURNS. A Congressperson makes about $174,000 a year PLUS fabulous benefits and retirement of up to 80% of peak salary. So how does one increase your net worth by 64% in ONE YEAR? Leave Congress richer than when you BEGAN? Here’s why you’ve heard NOTHING about this story from the Major Media:
From NEWSBUSTERS:
She's All About Power...and HER Wealth.
“House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) saw her net worth rise 62 percent last year, cementing her status as one of the wealthiest members of Congress.
Pelosi was worth at least $35.2 million in the 2010 calendar year, according to a financial disclosure report released Wednesday. She reported a minimum of $43.4 million in assets and about $8.2 milion in liabilities.
For 2009, Pelosi reported a minimum net worth of $21.7 million.
In this kind of economy with so many people struggling to make ends meet, such a story should have garnered a great deal of attention.
Yet, despite this being prominently featured at the top of the Drudge Report shortly after the Hill published it, America’s media collectively yawned.”
Pelosi and her husband will leave richer when they leave Washington, than when they arrived.
Former Speaker Pelosi, D-Calif., now the House’s minority leader, also makes the perennial lists of Congress’s richest. Much of her family’s wealth is listed to her husband, Paul, including a commercial property in San Francisco valued between $5 million and $25 million. She reports as assets joint ownership with her husband of a home and vineyard in St. Helena, Calif., valued at between $5 million and $25 million. She’s also a limited partner in residential real estate in Sacramento in the $5 million-$25 million range.
“Pelosi and her husband developer Paul Pelosi are believed to have benefited more than ANY other Speaker of the House…from her service. Here’s just one example: http://newsbusters.org/node/12598
Her husband reported capital gains of $1 million to $5 million last year from a sale of stock in Apple Inc”.
INCIDENTALLY, former speaker Nancy Pelosi, according to her family, is pondering retirement. if Barack Obama is placed on extended vacation…there’s little chance of her being able to put new drapes in the SPEAKER’S office.

When I see this woman I hear Elvis singing “Shes the Devil in Disguise”.
She is corupt and belongs to a corupt party. This kind of crap is going on in both parties. It is time to clean the coruption out of Washington.
how does who is such an idiot do it ???
Another case of look where I am pointing my finger, don’t look at me.
Peloski has many employees and no Union.Peloski and Reed did not show their tax returns for 3 yrs.How about the rest.If i was Romney i would call their bluff in front of the whole Nation i would say “Peloski,Reed,Barney ect., show your tax returns and Obama show your colledge records that you have paid 2 million to hide”.Then i will show some more tax returns. Belive me you would hear no more about Mitt’s tax returns.Mitt is probably the only one that would have tax returns that were right.
