House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi may have finally fallen completely off her rocker Tuesday as she commended the President and her fellow Democrats in Congress for propelling the Left into a “bipartisan, cooperative alternative” party.
The 73-year-old California Democrat seemed to fan-girl over President Obama during a meeting with USA Today’s editorial board Tuesday, calling him “one of the most practically non-partisans I have seen in the White House.” It seems the Commander-in-Chief has earned this special place in Pelosi’s heart by his apparent willingness to work with Republicans to thwart yet another upcoming fiscal crisis.
In fact, Pelosi, who is the most well-known leader on Capitol Hillaccording to a Gallup poll from April, believes that the GOP is solely to blame for all the bickering in Washington – something which they’re doing solely for political gain.
“Nothing deters voting more than confusing, ‘a pox on both your houses,’ and that confusion is one of the successes of the Republican Party, to make it look equivalent in terms of who is holding up jobs,” she told the board. “It’s not equivalent, and we have to make that clear to the American people.”
Pelosi seems to have forgotten some of her own shining moments in which she scorned House Republicans. Just a few weeks ago she threw a tantrum on the House floor, yelling ”Poverty!” repeatedly at her more conservative colleagues while debating the chamber’s farm bill. She has also laughed at New York Rep. King for considering a bid for the GOP presidential nomination in 2016, and called her successor, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) the “weakest speaker in history.”
