"The Republican leadership says we passed bills last year," Pelosi said. "I remind them, that was a different Congress. That doesn't count in this Congress. The Republican leadership says let the Senate begin. I remind them that the Constitution says that appropriations and revenue bills must begin in the House."

We'll start to see some tears soon if Boehner has to take time out of his schedule at the country club to do his job.

@Sue_N I was going to write something to the effect that Boehner's full of it, but you guys said it first and said it better.

“We have moved our bowels in the House twice. We should not have to move our bowels a third time before the Senate gets off their ass and begins to poo something.”


There seem to be a lot of quotes that need fixing today...

Or in other words, "I've pooped on their lawn twice and they still haven't cleaned up my mess.  Do I have to lift my leg on their kids before they'll cooperate with me?"

"We have moved a hard line GOP bill in the House twice. We should not have to compromise before the Senate gets off their ass and begins to do something.”

There.  Fixed it.
