House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said on Friday that were it not for "the work" of President Barack Obama, the federal debt would have increased even more than the $9 trillion that it has increased over the eight years of his presidency.
“Absent the work of President Obama this national debt would be even higher,” Pelosi said at her weekly briefing with reporters at the Capitol when asked about the increase in the federal budget under Obama. […]
“As I’ve said over and over again: Show me your budget, show me your values,” Pelosi said. “And we see today on the reconciliation a clue. We haven’t seen the full budget because that will come later.”
“When (Obama) stood on the steps of the Capitol eight years from next week the deficit was $1.4 trillion—one-year deficit,” Pelosi said. “It’s reduced by 70 percent in his administration.” […]
“[Clinton] had us on a path of $5.4 trillion in debt reduction,” Pelosi said. “Not deficit, debt reduction—as opposed to an annual deficit—the debt reduction. President Bush came to office, he reversed all of that. …

I am not sure if I should be aggravated that anyone this stupid could be elected to congress or flabbergasted that the rats put her back in charge (again).
She is something else........
If the dumbocraps wrote a history book and left out their lies, the book would be empty.
As Reagan demonstrated: Marxists/Leninists respect only one thing and need to be dealt with only one way. They must be wiped out.
I wonder if they care no one believes them.
Yeah she’s ####ing insane. 9 trillion.
And obamacare is good because people can have more time to do the things they enjoy, like writing music, knitting, stand up, improv...
And there’s nothing left in the federal budget to be cut. IT’s been cut to the bone.
So, in the mind of this, and other, asinine democrats, almost TEN TRILLION dollars is just ducky. And she blames Bush still. Why do good people die young and not this evil little wretched creature.
The President doesn’t control the budget, Congress does. And Congress has had NO spine of late.
With tools like this woman, it’s a wonder we have a nation left at all! If Congress doesn’t even know the Constitutional blueprint, then they aren’t fit to be there. Period. She obviously doesn’t belong there, and whomever voted for her has to be ignorant.
Oh, shut up.
You belong in prison for falsifying 0thugga’s eligibility to run for President.
House sets the budget. She was the leader of the House for that budget !
Sheeple: Things are bad. You’ve made things worse than they were! Fail!
Liberal: As bad as it is, things are not as bad as they would have been if we hadn’t done everything we did, and it’s Bush’s fault we were hamstrung! We meant well! We really needed to double down and explain what we did better!
Give us the reins again and we’ll try to make things even more less bad, believe me.
Oh, by the way, you’re a racist!
What color is the sky in rat world?
pelosi who spent $5 billion on a website
They are on their way out in more ways than one. Incredible paradigm shift. The whole baby boom is bombing. I think I smell fresh air.
Forgot. Been a while...Bushes fault. /s
I hope she’s at home in Kalifornia when it slides off into the Pacific.......;)
We may facepalm every time Nancy Pelosi speaks, but she’s a walking billboard for the mental disorder of liberalism.
I’m really glad the House Dems kept her as their leader.
