Pelosi tells Republicans to 'take back their party' Posted: 02:14 PM ET

From CNN's Dana Bash and Deirdre Walsh

WASHINGTON (CNN) – Speaker Nancy Pelosi marked President Obama's 100 days in office with some unsolicited advice to Republican voters: "take back your party."

The California Democrat offered her own analysis of the political environment for her political opponents, asserting Republicans across the country are more willing to work with Democrats than their leaders on Capitol Hill.

"Yes, there is, shall we say - a 'radical right-wing' element with whom they identify. But by and large, I say to Republicans in America: take back your party. The party of protecting the environment. The party of individual rights. The party of fairness. This is not the Grand Old Party."

Pelosi concluded her long riff about the GOP by saying, "our country needs a strong diverse Republican party." Without missing a beat, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid chimed in, saying "not too strong."

The ‘Republicans’ need to resign in mass. Leave the thieving scumbag LEFTISTS up there all by themselves. Let the media and DEMONCRATS circle jerk each other until the hangings start.

Piss off Botox bitch. We are taking back the party by shitcanning the RINOs. Your lapdog Biden finally got Spector to come, after trying for 6 years, (his lips must be really tired). Please also take every R labeled liberal that voted for the Abortion queen for HHS, and McCain too. Let them run against your own pus-rockets in the primaries. See you in '10 and '12... BWHWAHAHAHA

A male Democrat is a donkey or jackass. A female Democrat is a Pelosi - or whatever the female equivalent of “Jackass” is. She's got some gall to tell Republicans what to do!
