Say What? Pelosi Claims Copenhagen Conference is About Jobs...?

That's what she's claiming.  Too bad Dems' plans for carbon taxes would put countless people out of work, but apparently it seems logical to Nancy Pelosi.

The LA Times reports:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a savvy politician whose vote-counting prowess will be tested in the off-year elections fueled by voter anger, said recently that as the calendar turns to 2010, she was in campaign mode and would focus almost exclusively on the issue of most concern to voters: jobs.

So it was not too much of a surprise this morning when the San Francisco Democrat, joined by 20 other members of Congress, arrived in Copenhagen for a climate change summit announcing that the visit is really meant to create jobs.

"We see Copenhagen as a meeting about job creation," she said. "How do we move forward to create millions of clean energy jobs and new technologies to keep America No. 1?" 

The House Speaker also didn't hesitate to throw her own president and party leader under the bus, distancing herself and her Dem colleagues from Obama's decision to increase troop levels in Afghanistan:

In keeping with her pledge to focus on jobs, Pelosi also signaled to the White House that President Obama is on his own when it comes to funding for the troop surge in Afghanistan. "The president's going to have to make his case," she said, making clear that she is done asking colleagues to back wars they do not support.
