House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told Democratic House members at a meeting Thursday morning to “embrace the suck” and encouraged enough members to back the budget deal on the floor to allow passage, according to an attendee of the meeting.

If the demonrats accepted the deal something valuable was given. I say the Rinos just sold us out on amnesty.

The smartest woman in the world, next to hillary.

What a legacy! Embrace the suck. What difference does it make?

We use that expression all the time in the military. It offends me that she’s using it...

I think there was a misunderstanding.

She probably said: “Embrace, THEN suck.”

That’s what vampires do....................

Nasty Pelousy doesn't know what "embrace the suck" means, and hasn't earned the right to use the phrase.

I’ve never heard that term before. Exactly what does it mean? Is it vulgar?

It means to wholeheartedly throw oneself into a situation which sucks, but is necessary (or at least, unavoidable). “The suck” is the hardship (physical, mental, emotional) experienced by people who are trying to do something difficult, and worthwhile, and dangerous. Soldiers are a prime example of such people.

We need to get this off the table so we can go forward

translates to:

We need to pass this budget to further our agenda and to help mask the affects of that agenda. As with the ACA, this budget will only affect the little people.

Obama’s ancestry links to a tribe known for tiny ones.

I’ve heard some pretty crude and vulgar expressions in my life, most of which left no doubt what they meant. I don’t think her remark was intended to be taken as crude as it sounds, but can someone let me know what the hell she’s talking about?

I’m sure she meant “suck” as in “not too good”. Then again, who knows. Liberals are truly bizarre people.
