"Today, President Biden honored us with his first in-person visit to our Caucus. He received a hero’s welcome!"

"His presentation on the values of the Biden vision was warmly and enthusiastically received. We look forward to a successful enactment of the Build Back Better Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill.... Our Chairs are still working for clarity and consensus. Clearly, the Bipartisan Infrastructure bill will pass once we have agreement on the reconciliation bill...."


She's being sarcastic, right? 

Clearly, X will happen once Y happens. If Y rather than X is the unlikely thing, then she's undercutting confidence in X. X is no more likely than Y.

She's so fake, she would melt if you threw water on her.

She knows her constituents. She knows her market. This will do. Doesn't say much for her constituents and her market.

Get in line, hiveminders. It's for your own good. Solyndra forever!

If the bill was actually bipartisan, she wouldn't need to use reconciliation.

The first two sentences you share read like a North Korean news story about the “Dear Leader”.

Biden's handlers refused to allow him to take questions, from his own Congressional caucus.

Howard বলেছেন...

Hey hey ho ho Nancy Pelosi's gotta go.

"Today, President Biden honored us with his first in-person visit to our Caucus.“

Sarcasm, right?

Like “thank you for honoring us with your presence”.

Poor Nancy Pelosi. The obvious way forward is to sit down with enough moderate Republicans to craft a bill that will pass without the defecting Progressives * in her caucus. But she doesn’t know how to do that!!!
_________
* Shouldn’t people who call themselves “Progressives” actually, you know, advocate for things that represent progress? I mean instead of demonstrably bad ideas from the 1930s like segregation by race, anti-Semitism, and socialism? Just thought I’d ask.

That was my immediate take too. I heard the words in the female voice of the telescreen in Orwell's 1984.

The lies are so blatant and so obvious.

Only stupid people vote for Democrats.

People like Howard.

Not sarcasm, lies, dissembling and bullshit. It's her forte.

Proceed with caution here.

Criticisms of any democraticals, and in particular Pelosi or Swallwell or AOC or Schiff or Biden or Whitmer, usually elicits an extremely angry and often violent respinse from LLR Chuck who does NOT appreciate negative assessments of his dem teammates.

I am glad Biden has gone to the Caucasus.

Somebody needs to straighten out the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict.

Not to mention the Chechnya thing.

Hopefully he hasn't booked a return flight.

Lurker21 বলেছেন...

Pelosi sounds like she's describing Stalin's first visit to the newly-annexed Baltic states or Mao's to Tibet.

I'll stop before I drag in a Hitler reference. That would be wrong.

Biden says he's going to "work like hell" to get his program through ...

As he heads for his helicopter to go back to Delaware for the weekend.

He will be on the phone all weekend talking to senators and representatives ...

Or the Secret Service's Biden double will be.

BuBaBe Act, and BIB. Great stuff, and no more than we deserve.

Obviously all the energy is within the election audit thread. Nancypants can’t even draw a chucky defense in here.

Nancy's been on the sauce again.

The bill already passed the Senate. So it is an up or down vote on the bill as is. If Pelosi amends it to get more Republicans, the bill needs to go back to the Senate for another vote and likely be defeated there.

The messaging is clear.
Pass the massive bill that has no support first, through reconciliation. Then if the actual infrastructure bill fails to get the 60 senate votes, dems will blame the Republicans. But the socialist get their wish list.
They have already told us how they are going to do it. Just shrink the years to sunset. From 10 years to 5 years. That drops the price from $3.5B, to B1.5B. Then make Republicans take away the welfare checks from the middle class earning $150K per year, by not renewing the sun setting legislation

Bender বলেছেন...

The problem -- now that Pelosi has broken her promise for a vote on the "infrastructure bill" earlier this week, and both Pelosi and Biden are now linking the infrastructure bill with reconciliation bill when the moderates were promised there would be no linkage -- is whether the punked moderates will go along with being the bitches that the leadership tries to make them be.

The moderates need to be clear -- Pelosi and Biden broke their word. Now the entire franchise is dead.

"Clearly, the Bipartisan Infrastructure bill will pass once we have agreement on the reconciliation bill...."

Well, at least that tells you which part of the Dem caucus is running the show -- AOC, Cori Bush, Tlaib, Pressley, Omar, and other assorted crazies. Doesn't bode well for anything passing. Further proof that God loves America.

Nancy led Biden to the anvil, put a hammer in his hand and let him take a couple swings at a soul they were working on.

Drago বলেছেন...

Day 33 of Americans held hostage in Afghanistan: something Howard and LLR Chuck said could never happen because noted geo-military strategy "expert" George "The Walrus" Conway proclaimed Bidens exit plan was perfecto!

@Bender, I’m aware of that, but what makes you think a bill modified to be less palatable to liberal extremists but more palatable to moderate Republicans would be”likely” to be defeated on a re-vote in the Senate?

Bender বলেছেন...

The Senate is in no mood for the House's games. If the House screws around with the infrastructure bill it already passed after very careful and considered negotiations, they will reject the House version.

Static Ping বলেছেন...

Some people want to be lied to.

Jen Psaki makes bald face lies on a daily basis and for the most part the press simply accepts it since they are on the same team. Why not Pelosi? It would have to be a really terrible lie to get anyone to notice.

Gahrie বলেছেন...

I would say to let the Democrats force their bill through, if only to show the voters how extreme and out of touch they are. Unfortunately Democratic voters don't appear to give a shit.

Skeptical Voter বলেছেন...

For what it's worth I've read that Nancy has now moved the deadline for voting on the infrastructure bill to October 31st. Which doesn't do much for Biden's "hero's welcome" credentials.

But I say that the new October 31st deadline is a good thing. That will allow Nancy and Company to work on the turkey of a "Build Back Better Act"--and maybe either pass it or kill it around Thanksgiving time. My bet is that it goes in the oven and disappears.

Bunkypotatohead বলেছেন...

So Biden reads something his speechwriter types up, and Pelosi gives a canned response from her staff. You could cut out the middlemen and just let the underlings write back and forth in private. That way the public's intelligence needn't be insulted by these two doddering fools.

wendybar বলেছেন...

If Joe Biden is your hero...you need to admit yourself to an insane asylum.

Delaware was a slave state during the Civil War. Because of this, it's people and land CAN NEVER BE REDEEMED!!!!
