Pelosi Announces Discharge Petition Strategy

What a BRILLIANT leader! With her radiant smile and effervescent charm in tact she informs Boehner he has until Tuesday to get his house in order OR ELSE. I wish we had a Nancy Pelosi in Kentucky!

If the roles were reversed and Mit had won by the same margin all right wingers would be saying the same thing as us lefters are now.."Majority Rules! The people have spoken. And if you dont listen your the same as any dictator out there. Claiming you know better then the Majority so Eff them.". And the thing is you may vary well know better.. But that's not the system America has chosen to use and you must respect that or move somewhere else.

the tax hike amounts to 8 days of spending. we need cuts to the budget and an audit of the fed.

Yep, the Republicans are nothing but hostage-takers on this issue. I am glad that there is a mechanism for the reasonable faction of Congress to bring this matter for a floor vote. Boehner is a real shithead. He could have brought the matter to the floor if he wanted to.

If you are college educated, work hard, and live in California you should not be supporting the terrible policies that come from this woman. The liberal policies of redistributing hard-working incomes to those that neither work (99 weeks of unemployment, etc.) coupled with oppressive small business regulation & policies are destroying our once brilliant country starting with California. With Obama care there's a reason businesses are upcharging or closing. Her solution is more tax. Terrible.

YEP, THAT'S RIGHT , YOU NEGATIVE MEAN ASSED FUCK

you are too much , laughing at you own ridiculous comments. what have you done for others lately, sflesslyt, and legimately (other than crack bad jokjes and lAUGH AT THEM?) ~ folks like you , when leaving comments like this (for the whole world to see ) , totally embarass me. I"m sure I'm not alone . go dpo something productive anmd or positive, you negative meaN ASSED FUCK

I cannot understand why people who are not wealthy support Republicans. They have ZERO of your interests at heart. Half man Half turkey Mitch McConnell was worth 3 million when he was elected, now he's worth 30 million, what does that tell you? Who do you think he's working for?

America and American families all for profit... their is room for capitalism in our democracy, but their is no room for democracy in your capitalism ...

@Jerry Jackson I do know what would make the country's economy strong again good paying middle class jobs. The Republican party are the corporate shills who sell out 98% of Americans like you and me to the corporations. I bet on America and want to invest in her and her children. Id rather my tax dollars go to American families and not for corporate welfare and hand outs to big oil, multi national corps. Who bribe politicians mostly who are Republican to keep enacting laws that further destroy

@Jerry Jackson, I pay 35% and do not mind one bit. Your argument is and has been proven wrong. First of all federal taxes in the rich and corporations are at their lowest in 30 years and dropped further in obamas first term in office, you need proof Romney paying 13% or less if any. He never even released his Full Tax return.

Whomex13, just what do you pay? Do you know what long term capital gain is and what the percentage you are tax? Do you know the risk in investments? You can lose your money and with that investments create jobs. Just because Obama won does not make him right. A lot of people can be wrong and vote the wrong person in for the job, and all that does is make things worst in the long run. You have no cue to hat it takes to get this country strong again.
