Leader Pelosi: But the fact is that what’s happening this floor is not serious. It’s not serious. But the subject it addresses is serious. It’s time for this Congress of the United States to get serious about debt reduction, job creation and to stop this assault on Medicare which is the basis for this legislation today. Republicans voted to end Medicare and put insurance companies in charge, and now they are threatening our economy with a reckless stunt in order to get their way. Today the House is considering a resolution to increase the debt ceiling—House Republicans oppose this bill and admit cannot pass the House under suspension of the rules which requires 2/3 for passage. An increase in the debt ceiling is required to prevent default on the debt created by George W. Bush, not to approve new spending. Democrats, Republicans and the Obama Administration have been engaged for weeks in bipartisan deficit reduction discussions. In fact, tomorrow President Obama is hosting a meeting of House Republicans at the White House to discuss responsible debt reduction. It is bad faith for Republicans to jeopardize those bipartisan negotiations by forcing a vote on a divisive default resolution. Democrats are committed to responsible deficit reduction to prevent more debt.


End the wars. Cut spending. Cut taxes. Shrink the fucking government. I don’t care if you’re a Republicrat of a Demican.
A lot of people would like to be her drug dealer. They’d make a fortune.
Nancy Pelosi is a corrupt disgrace. Hey Nancy, is the Tea Party still “astroturf” Hard to say that now huh? Hey Nancy, you did a great job “draining the swamp” like you said you would. . . . Not
@dakotahnova I love her too! She made it so easy for the republicans to sweep last Nov. Thanks Nancy! If we raise the taxes on the “rich” 50% it still will not come close to fixing our problems. The tax breaks are NOT responsible for our current situation. The rampant spending by Obot are. The numbers don’t lie. Under Bush 2001-2008 you had these tax cuts and 2 wars in full force and the spending did NOT start to spiral till 2009. Get educated and start looking at your CURRENT president.
@1ThinkingMachine And according to the website and the lists from 06-now, you are wrong she has not been on every list since she has been in office
I love Nancy Pelosi
@dakotahnova *generous
@1ThinkingMachine Also what politician is not corrupt? your party is the party bent on getting nice generousness donations from corporate America to help push their agenda. While Democrats vote for stricter limits on campaign funds. . . . guess who flip flops on that issue? the party of STUPID, also known as the GOP
@1ThinkingMachine You spelled JUDICIAL wrong Then again you attacked me for telling the TRUTH about a hated man who destroyed this nation, cant pronounce nuclear, doesn’t know his right from left hand, cares only about the rich and decides to give big fat tax breaks to them on the backs of the American taxpayers, and killed hundreds of thousands of civilians and thousands of our own soldiers in Iraq over a false premise. Not to mention EVERY THING ELSE. I’m only 13. . . hurts doesn’t it?
@1ThinkingMachine If describing the GOP as stupid is upsetting to you perhaps you’d prefer “hypocritical”.
@1ThinkingMachine Tax cuts at a time you’re funding 2 wars and having to raise the debt ceiling 7 times is what I would consider stupid. If in your book that’s “smart” then one word comes to mind, “hopeless”.
@dakotahnova You believe in the easter bunny huh? BTW you are wrong! But you probably know this because like most Democrat’s that make up lies about Bush just shows they aren’t very bright.
@esd2000 After reading your rant it’s funny that you would have the gonads to call someone else stupid !
Judaical Watch shows Pelosi to be in the top ten most corrupt politicians list. She has made that list every year she has been in office .
Let’s go vote on this Christmas Eve say around 1:00 AM. . . .
GO play with the grand kids. . . . . . . . . . . . they should charge her back for the 1,000,000′s she spend on the airplane trips. . . . . . . she lies. . . . . she doesn’t think we know. . . .
~~Republican$ are always saying that they hate”Big Government”. What they really mean is that they hate government regulation. Keep in mind that Republican$ don’t work for you. They only work for BILLIONARES, CORPORATIONS& WALL STREET. They want to destroy MEDICARE because then they can give that money to the insurance co’s. They want to destroy social security so they can give that money to Wall Street firms. >They want to destroy UNIONS so that everybody makes minimum wage(like in Texas).

@doncarlsanders I think everyone is ! (;
@usam1981 I sure hope your right about the Kenyan fraud loosing, but never underestimate the ignorance of peaple on the dole.
@dakotahnova I am sure glad that we have you reprsenting the spelling police. .
@doncarlsanders You also must have been dreaming while writing this comment, because it makes no sense and even some of the simplest words are misspelled . yhe? wayy? rember? followeres?
@usam1981 Bush’s policies? That’s funny bin Laden wasn’t in Iraq. None of those jokers parading as serious candidates have a snow balls chance in hell in 2012, especially the Queen Joker of all Sister Sarah. Prop her up all you want but she’s not only a quitter, she’s also a loser. But Hannity sure likes her. They have alot in common, “ignorance”.
@usam1981 yes I have, I actually used to be a Republican before I saw ignorance and blind adherence to a fallacy filled ideology destroy our economy over rational minded fiscally and nationally responsible policy. So save your dog and pony show for your uncle and grandma, I’m sure they’ll listen on the edge of their seats. Pretty much every Republican with half a brain began to realize what I did over the last half decade. You’re just a little late I guess, you’ll figure it out.
@esd2000 Actually, I don’t watch Hannity, but sinse you obviously jump to him, it is obvious where you get your information, CNN. It was Bush’s policies that caused us to get Osama, it was Democrat information that took us to Iraq. The Democrats destroyed the Auto industry. Obama is the Barney Fief, and Joe Biden is Gomer Pile. Your hero is a complete joke, as I am guessing it is Obama. Get over Obama, he will loose in 2012, and there is nothing anyone can do about it.
@daderone Have you ever concidered that those who I listen to know more than the president. Check out Walter Williams, a BLACK man, whom is a well known economist, and a Concervative, who is against Obama.
