Obama Predicts Pelosi Will Be Speaker Once Again
**Written by Doug Powers
Hope springs eternal for some, but I’m not even sure the Democrats (with a few exceptions) would want Nancy Pelosi to be Speaker of the House again given the semi-slaughter she helped lead them to in the midterms. Count President Obama among those who would like her to wield the gavel once again:
President Obama this week predicted that Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) hasn’t seen her last stint as House Speaker – an indication Democrats remain confident they can win back control of the House sometime in the not-too-distant future.
“What can I say about Nancy Pelosi?” Obama told members of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) at the St. Regis Hotel in San Francisco on Thursday. “I think [she] will go down in history as one of the finest Speakers that we have ever had, and she is going to continue to be, in the future, one of the great Speakers that we’ve ever had.”
One of the great Speakers we’ve ever had? Really?
When Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) gave her inaugural address as speaker of the House in 2007, she vowed there would be “no new deficit spending.” Since that day, the national debt has increased by $5 trillion, according to the U.S. Treasury Department.
It depends on what your definition of “great” is. Does Obama expect anyone to believe he’s serious about his recent debt reduction talk when, almost in the same breath, he’s openly hoping for the return of the biggest spending Speaker in history?

That Obummer’s approval rating is not in the low 20′s is all the proof one needs that the Idiot Masses are content to be ravaged by the Ruling Class.
Are you serious?
Are you serious?
Pelosi is “old school” politics….she actually believes that she and all other Dem politicians know what’s best for everyone else.
Constitution? What Constitution?
Ever notice how Pelosi always says, “What the American people want…” This is a classic ploy to convince the uninformed electorate that she gives a damn what the American People want.
For Nasty PelNazi, the Constitution and Charmin Butt-Wipe are merely interchangable forms of tissue paper.
Gorebot #13 – You are killin’ me! Love the play on Pelosi’s name (I’d like to be that creative) AND your analogy of the finer points of her perception of the greatest written rules of law.
You’re funny….and very cognizant of what she really represents.
Thank for the link, as some one said in another thread, something smells in Denmark.
Hope reality hits the dumbocrats on their way out the door.
Friday is here, but Sunday IS coming.

Pelosi won relection big time. she was re-elected to leader of the house big time, even in light of the massive debt spending and huge losses of Democrats in the house she ran.
Obama has been one of the worst Presidents I can remember with huge gaffes and stupidity, including starting a 3rd war without even knowing who the Libyan rebels were. He openly, aggresively, and harshly attacks citizens like me because I have a different political view. He is a joke, yet 40% of the people still think he is doing a good job.
Two of the worst ever and they are still held in high esteem by a lot of people. There is a high likelihood that Obama wil be reelected and Pelosi just needs to win the House back to be Speaker again.
With Weepys reticence to be bold and decisive, she very well may get her spot back again.
Its very hard to convince a dead voter to change his mind.
Dead voters are notorious for not changing their votes. Demorats have a corner on the market of dead voters.
Heck in some places like Missouri, dead candidates even win the election. In other places like Nevada and California, brain dead candidates win often. It’s deadly.
This was by far the largest flip of house seats going back across generations! This was a once in a lifetime event for the House.
The MSM propagandists are doing everything they can, every day of the week, to try to make people think it was something other than the total repudiation of the socialistic democrats that it was.
Unfortunatly, as this blog post has illustrated, the propaganda is working!
HMMMM, yes, Pelosi WILL be Speaker again. She will be Speaker in HELL for Satan where she will sit on a throne in front of a million empty seats and be required to talk endlessly, without pause for eternity while nobody listens.
My version of that would have Teddy Kennedy having to sit there and listen for eternity, sober.
obamba is toast. burnt toast, that is. and nancy pissonit will be feeding worms before she is ever speaker again.
We’ve definitely been lead down the rabbit hole where what’s up is down and what’s left is right.
NOTHING that comes out of that man’s mouth is true or logical, just a pack of lies.
