I hate this quote so much because it is always used out of context as a smear. Often it is twisted to imply something completely different, like you did here. The pronouns are the key to the quote. Speaker Pelosi was criticising the media for being purposefully deceitful.
The point was the negatives were screamed with a megaphone ad nauseam, but nobody talked about the potential good. Therefore "we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy."
