"So if somebody has the idea that the percentage of GDP of what our national debt is will go up a bit, but they will now — and their neighbors and their children will — have jobs, I think they could absorb that," Pelosi said in a conference call with liberal bloggers on Tuesday, audio of which was posted by ThinkProgress.

If morons like this one aren’t gone in 1 year then...
I don’t know. The other half of the country doesn’t deserve this.

What she’s saying, in essence, is that no matter how much or how little you make, we (the rat congress and administration) intend to use debt and taxation to make sure you never get ahead.
You forgot idiot AG.
The whole nutcase boat has to go..Obama, Pelosi, Biden, Clinton..etc. Its like the further down the chain you go, the further into Hell you descend.
Biden, one HELL of an insurance policy for Obama.
Translation: “If I give you five dollars today, you might not notice when I take seven dollars from you tomorrow.”
LMAO!!! Spot on, kind sir! Sad, isn’t it?
Nancy, Where are the jobs from the last spending spree?
