Drudge Floats Conspiracy Theory That Pelosi Has ‘Vanished,’ Ignores Clinton Rally, CNN Profile»

Matt Drudge has a banner headline floating a conspiracy theory that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has gone into hiding:

Drudge writes:

The woman who would be speaker, Nancy Pelosi, has oddly stayed out of the national spotlight in the week leading up to the big vote.

The high profile, potentially history-making democrat has turned dramatically low-key.

The last photo of vanishing Pelosi on the wires was from an October 21 fundraiser.

And since Pelosi appeared on the October 22 broadcast of 60 MINUTES, national TV hits have been nonexistent.

Nancy Pelosi is apparently the worst vanisher ever. Just last night, Pelosi appeared at a sold-out rally at the Warfield Theater with former President Clinton. Portions of the rally were broadcast on television:

Drudge is also wrong about Pelosi avoiding national television appearances. Yesterday CNN aired a feature interview with Pelosi:

Drudge really ought to stop pretending to be a reporter.

UPDATE: ThinkProgress has found multiple other national television appearances. Pelosi appeared on CNBC’s On the Money Kudlow & Company on 10/24 and on ABC’s Good Morning America and ABC’s World News Tonight on 10/26:

She has also been profiled by major newspapers in the last two weeks — the New York Times (10/30), Newsweek (10/23), and the Baltimore Sun (10/27).

  3. Briseadh na Faire Says:

    That’s right up there with Snow saying we looked and we could only find 8 times Bush has said “Stay the Course.”


  4. Zooey Says:

    Drudge is stalking Nancy Pelosi, but he’s really bad at it.


  5. Briseadh na Faire Says:

    drudge - noun:

    one who is obliged to do menial work.

    So, is Drudge a drudge? Is he being a good minion?

    Zooey - good one! This thread should have “I’ll be Watching You” playing in the background!


  6. flounder Says:

    Rush ran with this all day. I would have called if I was somewhere with phone coverage. I was going to tell him I knew where Nancy was: hiding out from Mark Foley like Denny Hastert!


  7. flounder Says:

    Rush ran with this a bit today too. I wanted to call and tell him that Pelosi was hinding from Mark Foley in a bunker with Denny Hastert.

    Creepy song.

    Maybe a little photo montage of photos of Pelosi and Drudge…


  10. Disputo Says:

    My guess is that this “story” was leaked to Drudge by the “Rahm for Speaker” Committee.


  11. ForTruth Says:

    I thought Sludge was in love with Madonna.

    I’m surprised they still hate her this much after she promised not to impeach Bush…

    Speaking of impeaching the Chimp, anyone see Jack Cafferty tonight - where he told Wolf and his blow up doll (aula Zahn) that many. many, many people responded to his question of “What should happen to Bush if the Dems take over?” with ‘Impeachment’? Cool.


  17. Karim Says:

    Matt Sludge needs to stop[ harassing old women and get back to spouting the filth that he does so well.


  18. Exley Says:

    Nancy Pelosi is hot. She’ll clearly be the best looking Speaker in congressional history.


  19. Wayne Says:

    #17— many. many, many people responded to his question of “What should happen to Bush if the Dems take over?” with ‘Impeachment’? Cool.
    – Unbelievable

    Awsome, just got home from work, will try to catch it if they repeat it.

    On the story. Drudge shows again what kind of reporter he is again.
    A gossip reporter who is deaf and dumb ( as a rock) and is as useless as a screen door on a submarine =)

  24. Technodaoist Says:

    Drudge is a wannabe tool for sure… Old media mentality in a new media world.

    Talk about a desperate attempt at distraction.


  25. Marie Says:

    The Smudge is desperate for a story even if it is a non-story. He’ll make one up.
    The repugs are trying desperately to make Pelosi out to be some kind of a monster to be avoided at all costs.
    They are so transparent - and Drudge is so clueless and lame.


  26. William Jensenl Says:

    Screw whether Pelosi is out and about. Where’s Dennie? NOw that’s the question. Peolosi a “San Francisco liberal”. Dennie a “pedophile enabler”.


  27. And You Thought REAGAN Was Stupid. Says:

    Just shows you how inept Matt Drudge is: he can’t locate Nancy Pelosi when she’s speaking at multiple, publicized events during the week.


  28. katy Says:

    what IS the problem they have?
    is it PELOSI ? … or that she is a woman? … or would most any dem in that position be the object of all this ire?
    seriously… what is it?


  29. And You Thought REAGAN Was Stupid. Says:

    WJ: Denny Hastert is hard to find because pork rinds just went on sale at Wal-Mart and he’s eating his own weight in them . . . takes a while, even for Denny.


  30. NewNameAcquired Says:

    I hate Drudge’s hat.


  31. katy Says:

    oh, and speaking of fake news - caught a bit of scarborough tonight because of a daily show spot…
    seems imus thinks jon stewart ought to stick to “funny” and leave his opinions out of the show, cause that’s not funny - to imus…
    that’s rich…


  32. Zooey Says:

    katy,

    I’ve noticed, in the few minutes it takes to turn of the television after Keith, that Scarby spends a lot of time whining about Jon Stewart. I think he’s a bit worried…


  33. ForTruth Says:

    Paula Zahn, a blow up doll, that’s funny.

    I thought I saw some of Scarborough Country before, I was afraid.

    I still haven’t read any of the “Drudge Report”, it looks stupid.

    Pelosi has remained very clean, and isn’t getting attention, continue to focus on that obese elephant we all see sitting in the room.

    Impeaching the chimp sounds like a great ending.


  34. ForTruth Says:

    Oh, and Dredge wants to have Madonna’s baby.


  35. Submit ToughQuestions For Politicians Says:

    Actually, Ms. Pelosi has a full schedule. On Saturday, she’s attending a NARAL fundraiser featuring Madonna, Barbra Streisand, and Alec Baldwin. On Sunday she’ll be a speaker at the Zion Road Episcopal Church, which has a gay minister and which frequently marries gay couples. On Monday, it’s off to Mexico to help them protest the border fence.

    Give ‘em heck, Nancy!


  36. Zooey Says:

    Oh, and Dredge wants to have Madonna’s baby.
    Comment by ForTruth

    All of Madonna’s back-up dancers do…


  37. Wayne Says:

    seems imus thinks jon stewart ought to stick to “funny” and leave his opinions out of the show —Katy

    Jon’s comedy show ( and yes it is funny as heck ) is more news worthy than the gossip crap thatImus spews. Imus is another right wing tool it seems to me.


  38. Exley Says:

    #22 Wayne…THAT’S for sure!


  39. Juizzee Says:

    Funny how Pelosi has to caricatured in order to seem bad. Her positions on issues are never discussed when she is being denigrated. It seems only oversimplications are brought up like “San Francisco Liberal” and the like.


  40. Republicans Are The Fear And Smear Party Says:

    The Republicans are in their last throes, if you will.


  41. ForTruth Says:

    Alright, that isn’t the real Exley.


  42. Wayne Says:

    OMG, the democratic candidates have some wicked adds supporting the daily show on my cable. They are really playing on the local and national corruption.

    Delay is the corruption poster boy in one for a Texas Supreme court Judge roflmao.

    Go, Dems go. I am seeing a ray of hope even at the local level.

    Even my older sister, who used to be a hardcore dittohead ( a Rash Limberger fan ) has woken up from the koolaid finally and has started looking at alternative news sources on the net now. She read the PNAC site and the stories of the reporters that tried to get the story national and no one in MSN ran it.
    She is pissed at the Repugs now. She woke up when the Foley scandal hit and seeing the coverup reported on MSN.

    Things are looking good for Change.

    #46….Hi Wayne…No, it’s the real Exley. I wish I could remember about what we last debated….Was it the Military Commissions Act or the need to redeploy from Iraq???? It’s been a few days, so I am not certain….Hmmmm….How else to prove it’s me? I love the Mets and Zooey and I are great friends, despite our political differences….

    Ironically, that is the fault of the MSN, because they have practically ignored almost every Democratic opposition speaches, inquiries, etc, for the last 6 years.

    Pelosi has been very outspoken, but ignored by the repug disinformation networks.

    That’s one tough grandmother who will clean that rats nest out, for sure.

    Current speaker, LardTub is cooked with the coverups (plural) that have hit the news lately.

    The Repugs are totally rotten with corruption. To take a phase from another poster, my cesspool smells better.

    How can religion be a personal topic with the GOP? They have done nothing but use it to cloak themselves to help hide their corrupt, predatorial, greedy, amoral and disgusting behavior!!

  67. Wayne Says:

    Interesting, an Allen Staffer just left the Republican Party, Hmmmmmm……

    Frank Schaeffer: I should be supporting Allen. Instead, I’m leaving the party.

    07:52 AM CST on Wednesday, November 1, 2006

    I’m a Christian, a writer, a military parent and a registered Republican.

    On all those counts, I was disgusted by an e-mail I just received that’s being circulated by campaign supporters of Republican George Allen, who’s trying to retain his Senate seat in Virginia.

    The message goes like this: “First, it was the Catholic priests, then it was Mark Foley, and now Jim Webb, whose sleazy novels discuss sex between very young teenagers. … Hmmm, sounds like a perverted pedophile to me! Pass the word that we do not need any more pedophiles in office.”Democrat James Webb is a war hero and former Marine, wounded in Vietnam and winner of the Navy Cross. He was writing about class and military issues long before me and has articulated the issue of how the elites have dropped the ball on military service in his classic novel Fields of Fire. By the way, that’s a book Tom Wolfe calls “the greatest of the Vietnam novels.”

    Mr. Webb’s son is a Marine in Iraq. That’s an uncommon fact in this era in which most political leaders’ children act as if it is only right and proper that it’s someone else’s war to fight.

    Mr. Webb also happens to be running against a desperate opponent supported by people who circulated the stupid e-mail, something that reminds me of a 2000 smear campaign aimed at another war hero, John McCain.

    I never served in the military. It was my son’s unexpected volunteering that connects me to the military family and to my country. And I’ve been voting Republican for years. My late father – Dr. Francis Schaeffer – was an evangelical theologian, friend to Jerry Falwell and White House guest of Ronald Reagan, Gerald Ford and the first President Bush.

    I have nice handwritten letters from various members of the Bush family, including Barbara, thanking me for my books on military service. So I have every reason to stay in the Republicans’ good graces. (It’s nice to be complimented on television by the First Lady.)

    But enough is enough. I’ve had it with Republican smears.

    The Webb e-mail is the embodiment of the cynical Republican strategists, some of whom must know the difference between fiction and nonfiction. Was Agatha Christie a murderer because she wrote about murder?

    According to the Allen camp’s logic, God would be a pedophile, too. After all, we Christians believe God inspired the Bible. And God-the-author chose to include the “sleazy” story about Lot offering to send out his young virgin daughters to be raped by the men of Sodom.

    The Bible has masturbation scenes, rape, pedophilia and God’s favorite man – King David – warming himself with a young virgin in his old age. He’s the same man God tells us committed murder after he indulged his peeping Tom fantasies.

    Lucky for God-the-author that He’s not running against George Allen.

    I just got back from a visit to Parris Island and was struck again – as I was on the proud day of my son’s boot camp graduation there as a Marine in 1999 – by the moral credibility of the drill instructors and selflessness of the recruits.

    Our political leaders should learn from them. In fact, our future leaders should be them. We need to compare today’s leaders to those of the past, who earned credibility beyond the reach of cynicism and irony – and cheap smear tactics.

    People like Mr. McCain – who is “for” the war in Iraq – and Mr. Webb – who is “against” the war – should be respected no matter one’s politics or ideas about the war. Why? Because they paid their dues.

    My wife and I have reached the tipping point. We plan to go to town hall to dump our Republican voter registration and reregister as independents. I don’t care anymore what party someone is in. These days, what I care about is what they’re made of.

    Wartime demands leaders with character and moral authority. The political party smearing Mr. Webb proves it has neither.

    Frank Schaeffer is the author of “Baby Jack,” a novel about Marines. His e-mail address is frank@frankschaeffer.net.

    Comment by gorn — November 3, 2006 @ 1:20 am

    Exactly.

    This wouldn’t even be an issue if Pres Bush’s strategy didn’t include mobilizing the Christian conservative vote. Haggard and his ilk have been pivotal in whipping the faithful base into voting frenzy, by playing on the Christian conservatives’ fear of the ever-present liberal boogeyman.

    Just read Daryll’s comments on the many threads today: The subtext of his comments is that his vote is guided by his religious faith. For whom does he vote? The Republican candidates, of course.

    By unmasking the hypocritical Christian leaders, who have been playing the followers into giving away money, time and votes for the Republican cause, the Republican ploy has become evident: The faithful are really little more than “wackos” and “nuts” whose vote is needed solely to keep a solid grip on power.

    The Republican leadership relied on all these unsavory characters because they “delivered”.

    So much for bringing dignity back to the White House.

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,,1938434,00.html

    America is now seen as a threat to world peace by its closest neighbours and allies, according to an international survey of public opinion published today that reveals just how far the country’s reputation has fallen among former supporters since the invasion of Iraq.
    Carried out as US voters prepare to go to the polls next week in an election dominated by the war, the research also shows that British voters see George Bush as a greater danger to world peace than either the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-il, or the Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Both countries were once cited by the US president as part of an “axis of evil”, but it is Mr Bush who now alarms voters in countries with traditionally strong links to the US.

    After having read some of your posts HG, particularly that last one, I figure Pelosi wanting to take your guns away is one of the better reasons you could have come up with - for people to vote Democrat.

  80. Dog_named_Boo Says:

    Happy Guy when I first moved to Texas it was a very blue state..everybody had guns, as kids we had 22’s, 3o ott 6s, shotguns, bows n arrows, pellet guns, slingshots…you name it. Texas is not so different today, I don’t think you have to worry about one senator taking away your precious little guns.

    What gets me about the gun voters is they will let the criminals run loose in congress and vote for them JUST SO they CAN keep their guns safe from some democrat [myth]

    Now, as I hear it, Gun owners have to protect themselves from criminals, self protection, this being the main reason for owning one…huh. Go figure.


  81. Rosencrantz Says:

    I guess calling you guys nazis all the time just hasnt set in has it? When we call you nazis we mean it as a slure…

    And we also are against destroying the U.S. Constitution and last I checked the 2nd amendment is still in there.


  85. Bruce Gorton Says:

    Dog_named_Boo

    The real reason why Happy Guy is so afraid of losing his guns - he is petrified of losing his fake masculinity. It has nothing to do with being afraid of gun control, or more stringent licensing or even limits being placed on what guns you can own, it is all to do with his need for a fire-arm to overcome his negative self-image.

    He is so afraid of that, that he doesn’t actually look at what the candidates are doing anymore. He point blank doesn’t care, provided they let him keep his little guns and let him continue to pretend to be the big man on campus.

    I want to know where CONDI is. Is she still touring the Middle East or shopping in NY? Why are they hiding her? Besides the fact that she’s the worst Secretary of State, ever, and can’t open her mouth without spouting some nonsense or lies…

    And come to think of it, where the hell is John Bolton? And where’s my neighbors; I’ve seen their cat, but I haven’t seen THEM.


  99. Wordsmith Says:

    What?! Am I the only one here?


  100. Anon1 Says:

    Drudge is an unimaginative, disingenuous jerk. Drudge report sucks. It’s an absolute waste of time for thinking people.


  101. Think Progress » Limbaugh falls for Drudge’s fiction. Says:

    […] Where’s Nancy? Turn on the TV.   12:15 pm | Comment (0) […]


  102. Judd Says:

    Drudge said it was a “brief” appearance that did not detract from his claim that she “vanished.” In fact, it was a three hour event that was televised, as our screen shot indicates.


  103. Brian in FL Says:

    Man, the Republicans are really desperate to make this election about “radical” Nancy Pelosi.

    Drudge and Limbaugh must have gotten the same memo from Karl Rove.

    Republicans have become a complete joke.


  104. Happy+Guy Says:

    The election IS about Pelosi. And Rangle and the rest of the libs. Just because you don’t like the job the Republicans are doing does not mean you have to throw the whole country away and put the Democrats in office. They hate America, no nothing about defense, want to placate scumbags like the French, hate the troops, hate Christianity, hate, hate, hate.


  105. Snap2It Says:

    Why isn’t Nancy Pelosi doing TV this week? I have been wondering about it, myself. She is great. She doesn’t need to hide! Yes, Drudge is an idiot. We all know that. But Nancy Pelosi is not acting like someone who is leading a revolution.

    happy - hope you’re still coming around after the hearings and convictions are underway - i doubt it though - like most of your kind you can (lamely) dish it out, but you sure as hell can’t take it. rabid mama’s boy, wish you lived in my town….

    Hate, hate, hate? Why are you here?

    As soon as crap like this comes out of anyone’s mouth, I know they are not interested in this country at all, know even less about history (especially political history), and prefer to get their news from hatemongers in 2-second soundbites because they’re too lazy to think for themselves or read.

    Good to know she will at least show up to pledge our undying devotion, blood and treasure to a criminal state and its ongoing slow-motion genocide. I’m sure yarmulkes are in the air in Tel Aviv.


  110. Think Progress » ‘Vanishing’ Pelosi To Appear At Multiple Public Rallies Tomorrow Says:

    […] The right-wing media — including Matt Drudge, Rush Limbaugh, and Fox News — have launched a baseless campaign (already picked up by MSNBC) suggesting that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has gone into hiding before Tuesday’s election. […]

    Happy+Guy = Stupid as a sack of hammers.


  112. IrishWalsh Says:

    Drudge really ought to stop pretending to be a reporter.

    You kidding me? Most news agencies in the country hover on the Drudge Report for scoops.

    You better make sure you got the ability to be a better and bigger reporter than Drudge before you try and call him out Bub. Because you just end up looking like an ass.

    Im looking for the news of Saddam’s verdict on here…no sign of it. Interesting.
