#1  I loved some of the reader comments on this article:

"What a contrast between the Italian and British Prime Ministers. Berlusconi spends his time dreaming up creative ways of screwing teenagers. Cameron does the same to pensioners."

Pelosi feels no responsibility for budget deal
The former gavel Speaker said that no matter what happens she takes no “responsibility” for the deal that is supposed to cut about $38 billion from last year’s spending deal.

“As is pretty evident House Democrats were not part of that agreement — I’d rather call it an agreement than a deal. I feel no ownership of that or any responsibility to it,” said Pelosi.

When asked if there were enough Democrats to push the deal through if some Republicans voted against it, Pelosi responded, “we’ll see.”

“We have not whipped it. We have not encouraged one way or another. People are just making their own judgment about it,” she said.

“I don’t want the Republicans to think that we’re not serious about keeping government open. It’s very important. There’s a big price to pay for our country not to do that. And I think they’re more likely to vote for it if we’re having our concerns about it,” Pelosi added.

When asked how she would vote personally, Pelosi merely said, “I’m studying it and I will make an evaluation.”

#2  You have to be able to think in order to take responsibility for something. Pelosi's brain is BOTOX saturated.
