Senate Democrats’ filibuster of a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security that would block deportation amnesty is not about the immigration issue but about respecting President Obama, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Thursday.
“This is not a question of protecting illegal people in our country, it’s a question of respecting the authority of the president of the United States,” Mrs. Pelosi, California Democrat, told reporters at her weekly press conference at the Capitol.
Current funding for the Department of Homeland Security runs out Feb. 27, but Senate Democrats are blocking the spending bill that includes a prohibition of Mr. Obama’s executive actions on immigration.
“As the president said, ‘If you don’t like what I’ve done, pass a bill. Pass a bill,’” Mrs. Pelosi said, repeating the presidents demand that Homeland Security funding and immigration be dealt with individually, neutralizing the Republicans’ leverage to force an end to the amnesty plan.
“They are in a fix,” Mrs. Pelosi said. “We’ll see how they get themselves out of it. We stand ready to work with them to protect the American people.”
The House-passed bill that would fund the department but also reign in Mr. Obama’s immigration moves has been stuck in the Senate, with Senate Democrats voting three times to sustain a filibuster.

I predict the field to get into these days just might be psychotherapy ... emphasis on the psycho.
wombat wacky
Yet, she still holds a “weekly press conference.”
No wonder the Framers didn't think women should vote, much less sit in the People's House.
Has there EVER been a more obvious, transparent LIAR than Nancy? She even makes her fellow travelers look guilty....
LOL!
Yeah, right Pelousy. The president is suppose to respect the authority of the Constitution which he swore to uphold. How many more POS’s can Washington hold without being labeled a waste disposal facility?
There’s only one other, she’s neck and neck with 0bambam in the lying dept. LOL!
The arguments she presents get interesting if one changes the subject slightly. For example:
“Senate Democrats’ filibuster of a funding bill for the Department of Justice that would block legal pedophilia is not about the child sex issue but about respecting President Obama, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Thursday.”
“This is not a question of protecting child rapists in our country, it’s a question of respecting the authority of the president of the United States,” Mrs. Pelosi, California Democrat, told reporters at her weekly press conference at the Capitol. “
That slight change is most appropriate due to the number Hispanic illegals busted in child molestation cases.
Someone has cut the last word of the quote out.
It should properly read, “President of the United States whose last name ends in (D).”
There, fixed it.
I had to read this a couple of times to check it wasn’t from a satire blog.
When you die Ms. Pelosi i hope you find solace that real patriots will come thousands of miles to pee on your grave due to the atrocities your administration has wrought upon us. That you will be known as a traitor and liar by historians in history books. You will have a legacy alright but not a good one.
They, including R’, should drop that ‘fighting for you’ crap when all amounts to is ‘I’ll talk a lot to get reelected’.
We don't have a President at the moment. Only a Democrat hack masquerading as one.
“Spazzy Pelosi,” I love it! LOL!
