House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi explained her support for the $1.2 trillion spending bill that the Republican Congress passed yesterday and President Obama signed into law by pointing out to reporters that the Republicans "were willing to concede so much" to get the bill passed.

The bill, Pelosi noted, did not stop funding of Planned Parenthood, and the Republicans "had to take out their provisions to destroy ACA"--the Affordable Care Act, AKA Obamacare.

Pelosi argued that the Republican leaders were so intent on getting a provision to allow exports of U.S. crude oil that they were "willing to give up so much." ...

Hard time getting her lies straight. So conservative principles had to be sacrificed for the sake of liberal-supported cronyism? We already know that there is a Uniparty.

The GOPe went right along with Obama’s wishes and then some. The budget is a total disgrace.

Her comments are nothing but enemy propaganda designed to sow dissention and discord. Why believe the enemy?

I'm holding my nose to do it, but I agree with her.

We didn't hear one single objection from Ryan. NONE!

Hmmmmm....

Who might that be?

"Pelosi argued that the Republican leaders were so intent on getting a provision to allow exports of U.S. crude oil that they were "willing to give up so much." ..."

In other words, the Republicans couldn't wait to get their payoffs from the companies and 2016 campaign contributions from the crude oil exporting companies and businesses. They (the Republican Party) are all corrupt to their cores and not worth our support or votes.

It is true that the GOP-e didn’t give up anything. They planned this collaboration from the get-go.
Watch for the strong socialist influence that is trying to take over both parties.

Paul Ryan is an establishment stooge and cloakroom laughingstock.

Yeah me too, although I did begin to have misgivings about him when he had his arse handed to him by that dim bulb Joe Biden during the VP debate.

So, Rush said he believed Ryan caved on everything else, in order to keep the Oil Export provision.

As usual .. Rush was right.

I agree 100%! Ryan could of at least made a lot of noise about the options. Also after the vote he and that POS McConnel should have struck out at dems and set the stage for the next issue they will have to deal with. Pelosi and Reid, and obama came out hard against republicans claiming they won. Made the republican leadership look very weak, oh wait they are weak!

They Were Willing to Concede So Much

Next up: GOPe-ers in Congress will concede to changing the name of the USofA to the "North-American Caliphate".

I don't care how "weird" Ryan is.

Weirdness is no excuse for treason against your own party; against your own constituents; against your own nation.

Conservatives need to take over the Republican Party in the same way that the Totalitarian Left took over the Democrat Party.

The GOPe-ers can either become Democrats or start their own, insignificant third party.

Yep, not very happy with the people we have in Washington these days. We’re actually in the majority back there.

Yikes.
