Drudge: Pelosi Claims She's 'Nonpartisan' (Howler of the Year)

With the focus on the economic stimulus package shifting to the Senate, the partisan split evident with the Democrat-only passage of the bill in the House last night overshadowed a lot of the discussions on both sides of the aisle today. So much so that various leaders were practically disowning the word bipartisanship as if deadly germs were part of its etymology.

-snip-

When Mrs. Pelosi was asked whether the vote — 244 to 188 without a single Republican’s approval — represented a failure on her part to advance President Obama’s desire for a broad bipartisan bill, she practically snapped:

“I didn’t come here to be partisan. I didn’t come here to be bipartisan. I came here, as did my colleagues, to be nonpartisan, to work for the American people, to do what is in their interest.

>> “I didn’t come here to be partisan. I didn’t come here to be bipartisan. I came here, as did my colleagues, to be nonpartisan, to work for the American people, to do what is in their interest.

She said this with a straight face, right?

[GVnana]

AHHH! That’s perfect!

Not many people that I would openly call anti-American, but she is the one at the top of my short list.

[brytlea]

Does she also claim she’s never used botox or had plastic surgery?

[Lady GOP]

I am aghast at what I just heard. This disgusting horrid liberal Congress plan to hold Rove in contempt and have him sent to jail if he doesnt testifying before these slime.

Im telling you right now this will be all out war between the right and left. Look at what they have done to Rush etc.

[crazyshrink]

But it was a bipartisan vote. Both Republicans and democrats voted against it.

[arderkrag]

I didn’t come here to be partisan. I didn’t come here to be bipartisan. I came here, as did my colleagues, to be nonpartisan, to work for the American people, to do what is in their interest

Yeh, sure, and I come here for the expert advice on valve stems.

[Trueblackman]

Right, she is as non-partisan as a donkey’s a**!

[brytlea]

I don’t think her facial expression can be altered anyway.

[JillValentine]

I don’t think her face can move.

Nancy is Catholic.

Harry the Reid is LDS.

Why does it seem like they are so close to Satan?

[brytlea]

LOL I beatcha!

[JillValentine]

LOL. The same thing at the same time.

[penelopesire]

The comments are pretty solid for republicans(which is very surprising for the NYT) The obamabrownshirts must be very tired after flooding every newspaper comments section with their bile for the last year...lol

The issue arose this week after House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers announced that he had subpoenaed Rove to be deposed under oath next Monday to answer questions about his alleged role in the firing of U.S. attorneys and the prosecution of the former Democratic governor of Alabama, Don Siegelman.

Conyers, whose panel extensively investigated both matters last year, signaled that he has no intention of dropping them now just because Bush has left office. "After two years of stonewalling, it's time for him [Rove] to talk," Conyers said in a press release
