Pelosi: Obama one of the most practically non-partisan presidents
Posted By Patrick Howley On 9:14 PM 08/02/2013 In Politics | No Comments
Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said that President Obama is one of the most practically non-partisan presidents that she has ever seen in her career and that he really is working to forge a budget agreement.
Heres the thing the president is one of the most practically non-partisan presidents I have seen in the White House. Ive been there since Ronald Reagan, and he really is working to try to get some bipartisan agreement. Theyve been working very hard to try to get the Senate consensus or some agreement on how we can avoid a shutdown of government but also how you can even remove all doubt that were not going to honor the full faith in credit of the United States of America by lifting the debt ceiling, Pelosi said Friday in an interview with the USA Today editorial board.
There are some glimmers, a possibility of coming to a grand bargain. The president is talking about a grand bargain for middle-income jobs, but the bigger, the grander the bargain the more you can accommodate, shall we say, other things you dont like so much. But weighing all the equities, this is the way that we need to go forward, Pelosi said.
Pelosi also said in the interview that government spending will help reduce the deficit, and offered a curious response to a question about the Obama administrations delay of Obamacares unpopular employer mandate.
The president didnt postpone the mandate. He postponed the penalties for not engaging in the mandate, Pelosi said.

For 2011, Obamas third year in office, an average of 80 percent of Democrats approved of the job he was doing in Gallup tracking polls, as compared to 12 percent of Republicans who felt the same way. Thats a 68-point partisan gap,
the highest for any presidents third year in office ever. (The previous high was George W. Bush in 2007, when he had a 59 percent difference in job approval ratings.)
In 2010, the partisan gap between how Obama was viewed by Democrats versus Republicans stood at 68 percent; in 2009, it was 65 percent. Both were the highest marks ever for a presidents second and first years in office, respectively.

Forging to make a budget agreement? For 2009?

Pelosi is a DINO. So bipartisan to her means Obama gives both the DINO’s and the RINO’s exactly what they want. He dishes the graft and cronyism equally.
To: Sub-Driver
She is either the world’s most brazen liar — or she is a certifiable lunatic.

Coulda been worse, she could be praising President Lurch as the most Parisian president ever...
Come to think of it that might not actually be worse...

I’m pretty sure a non- partisan president would not use the IRS as a political weapon to influence an election.
