Snort of the day
The Speaker of the House assures us that total Democrat control = diversity!
“Elect us, hold us accountable, and make a judgment and then go from there. But I do tell you that if the Democrats win and have substantial majorities, Congress of the United States will be more bipartisan,” said Pelosi.

Excuse me while I vomit.
I think my brain just exploded.
“The most ethical congress Evaaahhh!”
( How’s that workin out for ya? )
In Lib speak: Bipartisan = Sit the hell down and shut up, we’re in charge
How? Wouldn’t total democrat control mean loss of bipartisanship? Duh!
Gawd! This woman is the world’s only living brain-donor.
It isn’t that hard to be bipartisan when you have a majority. Sorry Michelle, but my capacity for humor is slowly draining away.
Blinking means lying.
Aaahh, but it WOULD match Ms. Pelosi’s definition of “bipartisanship”, ergo:
Liberal Dems get THEIR way.
We don’ need no steenking checks and balances!
More bipartisan = we will steamroll our socialist agenda right down your throat.
A new oxymoron! Bipartisan majority!
Uh, once again, this proves we will never determine who is the stupidest member of Congress. It is hard to hit a moving target and there appears to be a determined race for that prestigious distinction.
“San Fran Nan” keeps saying that world. I do not think that word means what she thinks it means.
I have to refresh my screen to believe what I was reading.
What a laugh.
Remind me again of their approval rating? What a joke.
I thought the definition of bipartisan was cooperation between two parties…so she needs an overwhelming majority in order to work with republicans? That’s like insisting it’s only fair to bring a tank to a knife fight – I won’t show up otherwise!
9% and falling. They are the only group less popular than our current president.
If we did that everyone of you would be in jail. Dem and GOP
THe only thing I hear is:
Yet, in their world that means they are doing a good job and should be rewarded with more Congressional seats. These people truly live a sheltered existence. Vote the bums out.
Gotta love her CHUTZPAH… I think with a CONGRESS with the lowest approval rating in HISTORY, we should take her advice… VOTE THE BUMS OUT!!!
The sad thing is most of them know they are set for another term
She is so full of sh… she can’t even tell when she’s lying.
But we can… that would be any time she speaks.
It will be completely bipartisan… Left and Far Left working together.
Sorry #17 did not see your post… Obviously GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!!!
Sweet music to my ears!! The Democrats said the same thing about holding them accountable last time the voters gave them the presidency and both houses of congress … and in 1994, the voters did just that. They held them accountable by throwing them out en masse.
For once, Pelosi has said something that is worth listening to. And believe me, Nancy – we most definitely will be holding you accountable.
I see that Ms. Pelousy’s lobotomy is working fine now…and after a few more jolts from the Tesla Coil,she will require a DROOL CUP….MUAHHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!!!!
The doc must have gone a little too deep with the needle during her last Botox session.
Of course, the libtard definition of ‘bipartisan’ is ‘bend over and do things OUR WAY, scumbags!!’
To agree with those above: VOTE THE BUMS OUT!!
Indeed.
To them, 9% approval simply means that 91% haven’t yet been given the whole story…
…or I’ll turn off the lights and sound and send everyone home.
I discussed this with my husband, we are both Independents. He said if this country elects Barack Obama, they get what they deserve. I reminded him, we have to live in the same country, while they are reaping what they sowed.
We don’t vote Uber Progressive Liberal …when was the last time this Country Elected a Liberal President, let alone a Uber Progressive Liberal President? Bill Clinton ran as a Moderate. I am supposed to believe the country is all of a sudden, Flaming Liberal? Really?
If The Democrats had ran a Moderate Democrat they might have had a shot at us, of course I don’t remember the last time I came across a Moderate Democrat.
We don’t vote Socialist.
I guess to Nan, being bi-partisan means reaching across the aisle…. to the moderate democrats.
There! Bi-Partisanship!
You mean she will leave the lights on???? This woman is the perfect symbol of Halloween….where is her pointed hat?She did claim she would clean up the house…instead she chose to ride on her broom rather than sweep out the dirt..like Murtha,Jefferson,Dodd, Frank etc…….
Just look at Illinois and the mess it’s in to see what Democrat control brings.
What she is trying to say is that there will be more cooperation between the communist wing and the socialist wing of the Democrat party.
Truth in advertising, you know…
She is speaking in past tense isn’t she?
All I can think of is the Photoshop picture of John Bolton holding the “WTF?” sign.
Pelosi is as dumb as a bag of rocks.
Curses…foiled again!
As in:
Beaten to it again!
Exactly what first came to my mind.
Excellent post!
Kudos to you.
I’ve seen pet rocks smarter than her.
Liberalspeak to real world translation:
Bipartisan means you agree with us or else we don’t even allow you to speak.
The scariest thing one may read for this Halloween season: President Obamapelosireid!
Ancient Rome’s triumvirate will have nothing on these three!
…who, however, would not qualify as one….
For some crazy reason, though, it appears Dem’s will take the House and Senate. I still feel McCain/Palin will win the Presidency, however.
Less related but it’s all about our congressional leaders – how the heck did all these idiots get to be so wealthy!
http://www.mcclatchydc.com/226/story/54838.html
We’re not talking about small bucks, but more than a handful worth more than $100 million dollars
Not sure if she said anything else…but above statement alone I think it just means that they will try (or atleast say so) to be more inclusive as opposed to Karl Rove’s tactics…
But is there any use of bipartisanship? We will easily know in few months…
He ran as one.
The last time I saw one was a few weeks before I stopped and chatted with a leprechaun who was riding a unicorn.
Nancy, we love you girl! You put the Moron in OxyMoron!
It is said at election time. The day after the votes are in, should they win, it is, “Suckers!!!!”
bi·par·ti·san (b-pärt-zn, -sn)
adj.
Of, consisting of, or supported by members of two parties, especially two major political parties:
ma·jor·i·ty (m-jôr-t, -jr-)
n. pl. ma·jor·i·ties
1. The greater number or part; a number more than half of the total.
I MUST BE CONFUSED. I DON’T UNDERSTAND
I usually don’t do so when reading posts but I actually laughed out loud when I read this!
Obama Got Nancy Pelosi’s Endorsement right? That’s good enough for me whatever she is for, I don’t want any part of.
http://sarah-palin-2008.blogspot.com/2008/10/uncle-sams-dilemma.html
This just confirms that we’ve fallen down the rabbit hole.
I already suspected it when I hear the twisted logic that says Sarah Palin isn’t qualified to be VP but Obama is qualified to be president.
What is up is really down, what is right is really wrong.
Well of course it will. After all, we have come to know and understand that the term “Bi-Partisan” is defined as “Republicans giving into and following and passing any and all proposals that are offered up by Democrats and NEVER the other way around.”
The overthrow of the Reichstag is nerely complete. Any and all opposition will be crushed once Fearless Leader comes into office. If people are not worried about all that is occuring right here in front of their own eyes, then by the time they finally realize it, it will be much, much too late.
If only the bearded Spock would do a mind meld on this Baronness Of Gray Matter. I for one cannot figure out how people this stupid, reach such a high level of power and influence.
That reminds me of an old girlfriend I had, who once tried to explain to me the concept of “Mutual Understanding:”
“When you understand what I want, then we’ll have a ‘mutual understanding!’”
She was serious in that definition — just as serious, I suppose, as San Fran Nan is serious about “bipartisanship” meaning one-party rule by donkeys.
Bizarro World, here we come.
Hold them accountable huh?
Rangel
Jefferson
Hastings
Mahoney
Murtha
Dodd
*chirp* *chirp*
Bipartisan is codeword for make the Republicans bow to our will.
When things go south blame everything on them.
Nancy Pelosi’s comments can be easily explained:
Down = Up
Wrong = Right
Evil = Good
Black = White
Unjust = Just
Weak = Strong
You get the picture – this is how it works in the topsy-turvy Liberal world of Alice in Wonderland’s Looking Glass….
laree, moderate democrats such as lieberman support mccain and are villified by the democrat party. remember the reaction of democrats to zell miller and his analysis that the socialists have left him.
Bipartisanship is only good if you have two parties that have staked out reasonable, common-sense positions, and Republicans simply don’t bring that to the table. I want there to be division. I want Republicans to be as emaciated and marginalized as possible.
You folks have earned it.
I’d like to know what you mean by that, because in reality it’s the exact opposite. Democrats have passed each and every Bush request for war funding, Democrats lined up (including Obama) to pass Bush’s FISA bill, and Democrats rallied behind Bush’s bailout plan.
Anyone that looks at the actual vote tallies should be able to see that the Republican party has much tighter party discipline and far more unanimity on votes. As far as ‘bipartisanship’ in Washington goes, it’s usually a handful of Democrats breaking with their party to vote with Republican consensus.

Because the last two years have gone so well.
That 9% that approves are dead goldfish from Chicago.
I thought Harry Reid was more at risk for stroke (having already had one) than Pelosi. Guess I was wrong.
pathetic pelosi!
Pelosi blinking = racist
Senator Stevens of Alaska…..whabammmm, quicker than a new york minute.
Maybe Princess Pelosi was thinking about bi-partisanship work with the RINO’s in the house! Our country is toast.
John Bibb
Yes, I can see it now. Pelosi stands up and announces that Congress has the votes to pass Obama’s new “Spread the Wealth” tax plan but, out of a desire for bipartisanship, she is going to concede the bill’s defeat to the Republican minority. Yea, that’s going to happen.
This is Pelosi’s way of making excuses for failing to keep the promise of bipartisanship that she made two years ago. You see, we didn’t give them a big enough majority in Congress to make it possible for her to keep her promises.
In 2006 she promised a bipartisan Congress (along with lower gas prices, a severe reduction in earmarks, and a “pay-as-you-go” budget approach.) All we had to do was elect enough Democrats to give them a simple majority and make her Speaker. We did, and she didn’t.
She now promises to be bipartisan if enough Democrats are elected to give them “substantial majorities” in both houses. I wonder what we’ll have to do to get her promise of bipartisanship in 2010?
Did you guys know that “Nancy Pelosi” is an anagram for “Political Whore”, “Worthless Gasbag” and “Obama Sidekick”?
No. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean anagram. I meant rhetorical flourish.
She has made herself super rich off the sap taxpayers,what does she care about the country.Here’s an image that will wake you up screaming.A partisan full frontal nude picture of her and Barney Franks with his lover from Fannie Mae at the Folsom Street Fair.
Diversity also means “division.” Isn’t that what we already have, and have had since the Clinton years? And…what happened to the “non-partisan” part in her “ascendance” speech two years ago…did it dissolve along with the “most ethical congress” part of the speech?
California is the model for the Nation.
The model to avoid.
What.An.Idiot.
Something must be wrong with the way it posted because it looks like the punchline to Pelosi’s joke got cut off.
God will hold you accountable, Pelosi. May He bless our country in spite of your works against us.
The Dems stopped being reasonable when they rode the buses to the White House after the Clinton impeachment vote failed and then cheered when OwlGore declared him the best POTUS ever!
Bipartisan. Uh, yeah, like she made it the most ethical Congress in history.
Nancy, who are you trying to kid?
yeah, she’s banking on the prospect that she is speaking to idiots. she has to, cause only an idiot would not realize that there wouldn’t need to be bi-partisanship to get things done if congress has a democrat majority. they can just push through any legislation they want unstopped. unless there is a veto.
if I were john mccain, i would put out an ad and play it as often as possible that says: so, congress has a single digit approval rating. nancy and harry have been running things for the past 2 years, and without a veto they are going to be unstoppable. is that what you want? a lousy congress to push through their legislation unstopped?
we need to get out the vote and make the real poll on november 4 read obama a loser.
The difference is, Stevens is being held accountable.
We’ll just chalk this up to a retorical flourish gone awry.
That is too funny!
I’m confused. If there are more Democrats in the next session how is that more bipartisan? What is the definition of bipartisan? Does it not mean two parties? What is the definition of “is”? I don’t understand English when these Democrats try to explain these concepts. Am I just incurably dense or is this really just crapola coming out of a twit?
And wasn’t already bipartisan when the Democrats forced more Republicans to vote for the bailout so they wouldn’t take all the heat?
As you know I just enjoy calling Pelosi a twit (while I still can).
I find it rather interesting that Nacy would be spouting that crap after saying that the Dems would work with republican’s when she was selected as speaker. The exact opposite was what happened. They forced legislation down our throats without any debate.
Of course the MSM will not say a word on how ineffective congress has been under her leadership or the fact that their approval ratings are the worst in history.
Nancy and her lib friends want control of everything including control of my 401k money. Well when Nancy pants tries to get a hold of MY money, I’ll make it dissapear. The government has proven itself useless in running any program let alone trying obtain extra funds by raiding peoples life savings. Mark my words IF they try this takeover of 401k funds, Dems won’t be in power much longer and this time it will be for more than just a few terms.
If Nancy and Schumer get their wish it will present an unsurmountable problem for them! With a Dem Pres. House, Senate when things go sour and their ratings are lower than they are now
Late to the game on this one, so I’m sure it was addressed above, but this is further proof the Democrats’ definition of “bipartisanship” is doing whatever they want.
True, perhaps, that McCain voted with Bush 90% of the time. But Obama voted the party line 100% of the time.
Last I checked, 10% is still greater than 0%. But given Obama’s economic policies, math doesn’t seem like his strongsuit.
