It's because Pelosi herself said that representatives are "insignificant person(s)."

The truth is that Democrat representatives in the House are insignificant, because the minority party in the House is much weaker than the minority party in the Senate, due to the cloture rule vs. the cloture vote.

Obama is not wasting his time with House Democrats who cannot control the agenda, control the vote, etc.

Some are scratching their heads why, after nearly six years in office and a reshuffling of his legislative affairs team, Obama's working relationship with Congress remains prickly.

Oh, gee, I don't know. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that nobama hasn't a single clue about what needs to be done?

A clever con man can fool the people. But when the con man gets in over his head (2008) ya gots real trouble.

This could be a new trailer for the movie Idiocracy.

Obama doesn’t think legislating is interesting. He had the worst record for missing votes when he was in the Senate. He didn’t like it when it was his job, and he’s not going to waste time on it now. Congress is supposed to work out the petty details without him.

Obama doesn’t need congress or the senate anymore.

The democrats whored for him.

They handed over their constitutional duties to him.

Now they complain because he brushes them aside.

Obama, today, no longer talks to mere mortals, even if they are his marxist supporters.

Rank has its privileges, and Obama is very RANK.

Out of those Democrat politicians mentioned in this story, the following are mentally ill (I know one personally)

Nancy Pelosi
Jim Moran
Raul General Grevious (of the Mexican Army) Grivaljo (whoever)
Gerald (”I’m Hitler reincarnate”) Connolly

John Podesta: A little marxist shit who is Soros’ buttboy, along with his brother Tony the Toad

Obama faces a Republican majority “hell-bent on defeating any initiative the president proposes.

Oh if this were only true.

“he doesn’t confer with his allies about his strategy and intentions.”

What ? Obama’s strategy has not changed in years...he LIES.

Geez, the poor democrats can’t follow a “lead” anymore.

“Not being consulted ahead of time — that just makes people crazy,” Grijalva said. “Let us know ahead of time. Call us in when you're developing something so we can give you our ground-level reality check about how this is going to work."

A once useful idiot is, first and foremost, an idiot.
