New Tone. Pelosi Says Boehner Went to “Dark Side” In Bill to Reduce US Debt
Posted by Jim Hoft on Saturday, July 30, 2011, 6:50 PM
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told the House floor that Speaker Boehner went to the “dark side” with his debt plan that would cut government spending. When Pelosi was Speaker the national deficit went from $162 billion to over $1.3 trillion dollars.
The Politico reported:
Right before the House voted to reject a Democratic debt-ceiling plan, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi didn’t mince words.
Pelosi pulled out a Star Wars reference on the House floor, saying that Speaker John Boehner “chose to go to the dark side” and court the most conservative members of his conference, rather than work on a bipartisan compromise.
“It’s time for us to end this theater of the absurd,” she said. “It’s time for us to get real.”
The House struck down the Democratic measure, 173-246, in a vote that was designed to fail. Boehner brought the measure up under a special rule that required a two-third majority for passage.
“This thing is not on the level,” Pelosi said before the vote.
Boehner’s office said Saturday morning that the vote on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s legislation would show that the Nevada Democrat’s plan can’t pass the House, dismissing it as a “pointless political exercise.”
Though Democrats stuck together to reject Boehner’s plan on Friday, eleven Democrats broke off and joined Republicans to shoot down Reid’s plan on the debt ceiling. They were Reps. John Barrow (Ga.), Dan Boren (Okla.), Bruce Braley (Iowa), Dave Loebsack (Iowa), Jim Matheson (Utah), Mike McIntyre (N.C.), Collin Peterson (Minn.), Mike Ross (Ark.), Kurt Schrader (Ore.), Peter Visclosky (Ind.) and David Wu (Ore.)

Why aren’t you covering this story?

At the same time Taitz, Plaintiff herein, obtained verification from the Selective Service, that Obama is using a Connecticut Social security number xxx-xx-4425, while Obama was never a resident of Connecticut (Exhibit 4, redacted selective Service certification of Barack Obama) (Exhibit 5, unredacted Selective Service certificate of Barack Obama submitted under seal)
14. Social Security Verification systems provided a response, that the Social Security number in question xxx-xx-4425 was never issued to Barack Obama, which show that Obama is fraudulently using a social security number, which was never issued to him.

This is the same Einstein that said about the Obamacare bill, “we have to pass the bill in order to found out what’s in it away from the fog of controversy.”

Nancy is the Edith Bunker of the Hill.

Totally convinced the poor hag is losing her grip on reality. It seems being kicked out as Speaker of the House has fractured what little grasp she had of her world. Maybe if she’s lucky Soro’s will find a nice institution for her to live as she slips further into her fantasy world, but I really don see him as someone who give a rats posterior about those he uses and thrust aside, hope she treated her old man better than she did Americans.
Rock commented:
Love to know the history behind that photo, but whatever was going on definitely has her looking like she was going to cry or have stroke. Please do it again.

Bad Actor commented:
That must be a very early picture of Nanny Pelosi – it’s in her “small beaded necklace” period – and before she discovered Botox. Put a black pointed hat on her head, and she looks just like the wicked witch of the west in The Wizard of Oz: “I’ll get you, my pretty – and your little dog, too!”
Time to retire and count your millions, Nancy.
Bad Actor commented:
She looks like she just sucked a lemon. I’ll let others add to that…..

The “Dark Side”? Don’t tell me that someone on the left has finally read their Tolkien and discovered that the Hobbits win and destroy the Dark Lord. Or are they just hopelessly mixing their metaphors again?
tommy mc donnell commented:
when harry reid tabled the boehner in two hours i guess that was bi-partisanship.
SeniorD commented:
Of course anyone whose fundamental belief system is 180 degrees out of sync with the rest of the American Public would say the other side is ‘dark’.

Exactly…Republicans want to save this country drowning in red ink and put us back into the black.
