"I have absolutely no regret about my vote against this war. The same questions remain. The cost in human lives, the cost to our budget, probably 100 billion. We could have probably brought down that statue for a lot less"

About this Quote

In this quote, Nancy Pelosi is expressing her belief that she does not regret voting against the war. She argues that the war has actually had a high cost in terms of human lives and budget plan (potentially around $100 billion). Pelosi recommends that there were likely more economical methods to attain the goals of the war, such as lowering a statue (most likely referring to the statue of Saddam Hussein that was notoriously fallen throughout the war). Overall, Pelosi's declarations suggest that she feels the war was unworthy the cost, both in regards to lives lost and financial expense.
