Pelosi says don't be afraid of Democrat control (says total Dem control would be 'bipartisan')

And on concerns that Democrats might control both the White House and Congress she said the following.

"Elect us, hold us accountable, and make a judgment and then go from there. But I do tell you that if the Democrats win and have substantial majorities, Congress of the United States will be more bipartisan," said Pelosi.

In Cleveland this morning Senator John McCain continued to link Barack Obama with Nancy Pelosi and the democratic leadership, accusing them of wanting to tax Americans and spend their money.

"Do you want to keep it and invest it in your future or have it taken by the most liberal person to ever run for the presidency and the Democratic leaders the most liberal who have been running congress for the past two years, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. You know my friends, this is a dangerous threesome," said McCain.

In Canton, Ohio, Barack Obama responded.

"If you don't have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run away from. You make a big election about small things. Ohio we are here to say, 'Not this time, not this year, not when so much is at stake,'" said Obama.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi promised that Democrats will do a better job.

"It's interesting to hear Senator McCain talking about the dangerous Obama, Reid, Pelosi. Dangerous is not really a word that should be a part of a national debate as we go into a presidential race," said Pelosi.

Been there, done that, Nancy. You commies have had congressional control for 2 years now, and not coincidentally have the lowest approval rating in American history.

To Pelosi, “bi-partisan” means a cooperative arrangement between the socialist and communist factions.

And evil shall be good. Sheesh, does she really think anyone's buying that?

Well, yes - that is, in fact, precisely what the Dems have done and are still doing with respect to Bush. Shall we enumerate the stunning legislative miracles that Pelosi and crew have effected in two years of majority? Yeah. That record.

They’ve all driven over the edge. Hussein, Pelosi, Reid, the whole bunch, and they have a busload of Americans. I’m just waving bye-bye.

Did Obama seriously try to paint McCain as someone with no "record to run on"? Considering Obama hasn't accomplished anything in his life, perhaps this is not the best choice of words on his part. The whole total Democratic dominance equals more bipartisanship is equally absurd, but that quote just stuck out for me.

We know the definition of “bipartisan” when it comes from the mouth of a Democrat: it’s akin to bending over and taking it, but they’ll let you spread the cheeks.

What makes Nancy think she’ll still be there. I guess she’s not up for reelection?

Hmmmm..... Maybe she’s spouting this because she’s feeling some heat? Perhaps the complaints about the dems controlling everything is being heard by the sheeple, finally? Maybe Nancy has to worry that she won’t get her supermajority, or even lose what she has!

Think positive!

Ms. Pelosi, not all Americans are as thought-challenged as your constituents are.
