Pelosi: The Legislation Has Failed But the Crisis Has Not Gone Away; We Must Work in a Bipartisan Way to Pass New Legislation Sep 29 07:32 PM US/Eastern
WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Chairman Barney Frank of the House Financial Services Committee, and House Democratic leaders held a news conference this afternoon following the defeat of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. Below are her opening remarks:
"Good afternoon. As you know, about a week and a half ago, the Administration visited Capitol Hill and described the crisis in our financial markets and in our economy. A couple of days later, they presented us with their legislation, and since then we have worked in a bipartisan way to improve that legislation. We've entered into those conversations in the spirit of bipartisanship, with the understanding that each side would have half of our votes to pass the bill.
"Today when the legislation came to the floor, the Democratic side more than lived up to its side of the bargain. While the legislation may have failed, the crisis is still with us.

The mods might miss it. Afterall,, it's not a thread on Ted Kennedy :-)
Yep, me too!
I am trying not to post anything mean about this shit eating mudpig
I listened to her on the radio today...I would have sworn she’d been drinking.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Hisssssssssssssssss
PALOSIE, you and your cohorts in crime are on tape.
We know who you are and we know what you did.
Aw Puce, you had your chance to make nice but you blew it. Now you’re going to lecture the world of its problems. You had Paulson on bended knees last week, and you gloried in the power. You’re just like the palis. You had the chance to come out smelling like a rose and you blew it. You stink as bad as last week’s dirty diaper.
Karl Rove was on BOR earlier and he confirmed my suspicions-freshmen dimos up for re-election were told to vote against the bailout, and dims were chortling about how they would use republicans’ votes against them come election day. This is Nan’s “bipartisan” leadership.
40% of her own party voted against HER. Verdict is in..they are doing a lousy job.
I'll help you. Nancy Pelosi, Frank, the financial weasels at Fannie and Freddie, and any other greedy socialist thug gang in Washington, can all go to Hades. They can feel free to take their Democrat Presidential nominee with them.
There. Maybe we'll both feel better
The envelope please (ripping) reading:
“She kicks a Republican in the nuts.”
What always follows Speaker Pelosi’s use of the word “bi-partisan” in a sentence?
Thank you, O Great Karnac
Maybe we should get a “rent-a-mob” and shout down Pelosi with “Impeach Pelosi” when she opens her mouth.
Well, if we see less of Paulson getting hysterical and more of Pelosi getting desperate, there may be a silver lining to all this. The best we can hope for is that she knows something we don’t, and it doesn’t bode well for her or her buddies.
I love it!
Impeach!
Impeach!
Impeach!
Now how about one saying
“Kick Barney’s ass out, too”.
I am wondering that as well. The dhimmicRATs have the votes to pass the thing without any Republicans joining them, yet they can’t get the bill passed.
I believe this whole thing is, at least from the House dhimmicRATic leaders perspective, a partisan ploy to get Obambi elected.
There you go...I'm series
