Thread: Website started by GOP, Fire Nancy Pelosi.com

In response to their failure to stop health care reform from passing last night, the Republicans have set their sights on a new goal: Nancy Pelosi's job as Speaker of the House.

The GOP's official Web site has been replaced by firenancypelosi.com, boasting a goal to knock the Democratic leader from her post by winning 40 seats in the House of Representatives in November's elections.

"It is time to fire Nancy Pelosi and send a message to President Obama that it's time to stop their partisan liberal agenda of government takeovers and start working for Americans to create jobs and grow our economy," RNC Chairman Michael Steele said in a statement late last night.

The site initially aimed to raise $402,010 in 40 hours, but that amount increased as it passed that goal less than halfway through its fundraising efforts. As of this posting, the total had reached $430,501.

Donators are invited to give as little as $40, but as much as $400.

While Republicans demonize the House Speaker with the Web site, Democrats are praising her and the passage of health care reform.

"President Obama and Congressional Democrats accomplished something that has eluded Presidents, Congress and the American people for decades," said DNC Chairman Tim Kaine.

"We owe great thanks to the President, Speaker Pelosi, Majority Leader Reid and their leadership teams."

This is not the first time Pelosi has been targeted by the GOP. Last year, the National Republican Congressional Committee spearheaded a Fire Nancy Pelosi petition using mobile phones. The goal was to obtain signatures, but also raise money.
