So my question to Pelosi was simple, “[H]ow confident are you that Speaker Boehner will be able to corral the votes to actually lift the debt ceiling?
Her response left an indelible impression that became a blog post headlined “Pelosi not sure Boehner has votes to raise debt ceiling.” I reprise most of the March 17 piece below. As you will see, the veteran vote-counter and power player saw last night’s train wreck coming a mile away.
Discussing this week’s passage of a new continuing resolution,
Pelosi observed that, in the vote, freshmen Tea Party Republicans were more interested in budget cuts while more senior GOPers were interested in policy-driven riders to legislation.

Life As Nancy Knows it is to raise the Debt 10% annually.
Her constituency pays no taxes, it’s never been an issue for her.
Wow! She’s psychic too?! It’s too bad she wasn’t able to predict what was in the ObamaCare bill without having to pass that commie crap first.
Only 95% of us are falling for it.
Spin, spin, spin.
Do the Bela Pelosi Dance,
Blame the ones to your right,
Shuffle your butt to the left,
Give a Good ol’ Stalin/Mao salute,
Then Redistribute Everyone Else’s Wealth.
Slavery, 1859, Whigs > the GOP; The budget, 2011, GOP > ?
Is a new political party forming?

I’m afraid only 5% are politically involved enough to see this as theater. The other 95% just catch somebody on the radio or TV news say...”and if the republican congress doen’t get their act together by Tuesday, the government will default and you won’t get your government check...”
and, yes, they are falling for it.
...since she didn’t do anything for over 800 days as far as the budget, why this *itch is asked anything is beyond me
Exactly. Just amazing how the Democrats LIVE on the cultural ASSUMPTION that they are acting on the behalf of all that is right and good.
After Nancy Pelosi’s outrageous quotes and behaviours during the passing of Obamacare, how can she stand up and call anyone “absurd” and not be pinned to the wall?
I must be in the 5 % that thinks it is a bunch of baloney.
We do NOT need to borrow any more money, period...end of discussion!
