House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) adamantly denied that the trouncing her Democratic Party took at the polls last week constitutes a mandate for a different direction for government.
“The problem is that our Party’s underlying message was drowned out by incessant GOP hammering on irrelevant crises and scandals,” she contended. “All the stories about ISIS beheadings, Ebola outbreaks, the flood of immigrants, IRS abuses, NSA spying, government waste and corruption masked the critical point that the Democratic Party is the Party of free stuff. Voters inundated by fears that their lives might be in danger, that their government might be descending into tyranny, and their taxes misspent on unnecessary or even harmful programs forgot about all of the benefits our Party has given them and would continue to give in the future.”
Pelosi’s optimism about the future of the Democratic Party was heartened by a Bureau of Labor Statistics report indicating that 93% of adults currently unemployed do not want jobs. “There’s over 85 million American adults who don’t want jobs,” Pelosi boasted. “Even more encouraging for Democrats is that nearly 40% of young people don’t want jobs. We may have lost this last election, but there can be no denying that we have changed the culture. The era of having to toil for a living is coming to an end for greater numbers of the population. More are content to subsist on government benefits. Is there any doubt about who this growing cohort is going to be voting for in 2016, 2020 and beyond?”

You have to vote in the Repubs to know what they’re going to do.
That is what I thought. Nancy is one of the loudest irrelevancies that voters are distracted by.
The era of having to toil for a living is coming to an end.
What state is Fat City in I can’t find it on the map and where do I board the gravy train to get there?.
Reid and Pelosi are grumpy and out of touch. They make things up and lie to distort any truth. The media eats it up!
I'm sure the families of the men killed in Benghazi really appreciate their loss being minimized and discounted so...
