She is probably right, but I think the gov't will spend it even faster.
Government raising the government debt ceiling is like an alcoholic going on one more drinking binge, but TOMORROW I'll go cold turkey. Promise.
We all know how it will turn out.
We will go through the same thing again in 18 months, if not sooner.

Where is the <8% unemployment rate they promised if congress would only pass QE2?

DC and the MSM are completely out of control.

"House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calif.) is predicting ... "

Has she ever been right predicting anything?

Based of prior experience she should be off by about 50% -- so we should be right back here about this time next year.

We have to have 18 months so that people sitting on a kitchen table all know that America doesn't bail on it's debts.

Yeah. We gotta have 18 months, and also, the 50/50 split.

Does she have any idea what she's saying?

You are so right. The country club republican party is such a joke! I think that everyone that voted for the debt ceiling increase should automatically contribute 50% of their net worth to the cause of the increase, just for starters. If it were really THEIR money the increase wouldn't got a single vote!
Didn't I just read an article that the net worth of our politicians had gone up some 366%? Why do they care what happens to the WORKING families?

Given 1% growth and the subsequent need for another debt ceiling crisis in June 2012, I predict a bloody fiscal fight just before the elections. Did Boehner secretly calculate this? No way. But this will be very interesting if it happens.

That’s okay Nancy. Don’t worry your pretty little head about it. 18 months from now is Feb, 2013. Sarah Palin will be President then I’m sure she has a plan. Pray that she doesn’t have a plan for you also.

Woops...”would not have gotten a single vote.”

No one could make me believe that a single politician gives a rip about me, unless I am not paying my taxes!!

What Nancy is not thinking about "IS"..

After Nov. 2012 THEN... we can start eliminating many federal bureaucracies.. which will make much more money available for the other federal agencies.. less taxation will be needed(eventually)..

AND... massive fraud by citizens and contractors can be plugged up..
When the federal government becomes much SMALLER.. less money will needed to run it..
Start by eliminating much of what Obama and George Bush did to increase the federal government... and reduce the size of other agencys..

Changing whole amendments(annulling) to the Constitution may have to wait for 2016..

Okay?”.....WTF is she talking about? EARTH TO NANCY!.....HELLO?

I believe Pelosi has lost it, if indeed she ever had it, economically speaking.
