Press Releases Contact: Brendan Daly/Nadeam Elshami 202-226-7616 For Immediate Release 10/26/2007 Pelosi to Bush: ‘The Days of the Fiscally Irresponsible Rubber Stamp Congress Are Over’
Washington, D.C. -- Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued the following statement today in response to President Bush’s comments this morning:
“The President fails to grasp a basic tenet of fiscal responsibility—you must pay for what you spend. The President would rather spend another $200 billion in Iraq and leave our children to pick up the tab than make fiscally sound investments in veterans’ health care, cancer research and health care for 10 million children.
“Congress is moving America in a New Direction that provides health care to 10 million children, which is fully paid for, and reinvests in key domestic priorities as part of a balanced budget that restores pay-as-you-go discipline and rejects new deficit spending.
“This Congress’ record on fiscal discipline and meeting our national priorities sends the President this message: the days of the fiscally irresponsible Rubber Stamp Congress are over.”

She really is a nut case.

When have they ever been a fiscally irresponsible rubber stamp Congress? For as long as I've been alive they've been the fiscally irresponsible big-pen-for-adding-pork Congress.

So, which New Direction is the New Direction Congress moving in today, Nancy?
The Fiscally Responsible $50 Billion SCHIP direction?
Maybe you want to take up Hillary!'s $100 Billion IRA Match fiscal responsibility direction...

I wonder if she nags Mr. Pelosi like this. Is that why he was last seen running from his Pacific Heights mansion screaming "PALAMINO! PALAMINO!!!"

Does this mean she is conceding defeat to the President? Or just that she is so confused she has lost all touch with reality?

He’s probably thrilled she’s in Congress just to have her out of the house.

We want Gridlock. Best thing that ever happens in Washington is nothing.
To: Sub-Driver
Right. Now the DEMS can be fiscally irresponsible all by themselves and show they can do it much more excessively than anyone else.
Go Nancy - pave the way for a Democratic catastrophy in 2008.
