Pelosi Gaffes in Presser: We Don’t Have the Majority, But ‘We Have the Gavel…Excuse Me’

Nancy Pelosi Gaffes: We Dont Have the Majority, But We Have the Gavel...Excuse Me, We Dont Have the Gavel

Image source: Fox News

Wishful thinking?

It’s safe to say House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) knows the Democrats don’t have control of the gavel in the House of Representatives, but she slipped up Wednesday and said they do.

“Yesterday we did not have the majority, but we have the gavel,” Pelosi proclaimed during a news conference to formally announce she will run again for House minority leader.

Earning herself a few suspicious looks from the women House members she was standing with, she quickly corrected herself.

“Excuse me, we don’t have the gavel,” she said. “We have our own gavel! We haves something more important, we have unity. We do not have the gavel, we do not have the majority, but we do have unity.”

In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isn’t really about controlling guns at all; it’s about controlling us. Find out more HERE.

Why is it just “Excuse Me”?

Why not include “let me tell you something” and other of Mr. Becks oft repeated phrases in your headlines?

  Here’s just a few for you MaryElizabeth
  • America will be far safer if we reduce the chances of a terrorist attack in one of our cities than if we diminish the civil liberties of our own people.
  • Protecting America from terrorism requires more than just resolve, it requires a plan. As we have seen in Iraq, planning is not the Bush Administration’s strong suit.
  •”Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost.”
  •“This initiative is funded by the high end – we call it Astroturf It’s not really a grassroots movement.”
  •“Every week we don’t pass a Stimulus package, 500 million Americans lose their jobs.”
  •I’m confident…I’m hopeful that we’ll have a (health care) bill as a Christmas present for the American people.
  •You go through the gate. If the gate’s closed, you go over the fence. If the fence is too high, we’ll pole-vault in. If that doesn’t work, we’ll parachute in. But we’re going to get health care reform passed for the American people.
  •“Unemployment benefits are creating jobs faster than practically any other program”
  •“We have to pass the (health care) bill so you can find out what is in it”.
  not enough…http://keywiki.org/index.php/Nancy_Pelosi_-_Quotes

  MaryBeth – I typically buzz by your comments because it’s obvious they are garbage. But I happen to agree with your first statement. I’m not a fan of the way online article titles are written either. They can definitely be misleading. However, to imply that this is exclusive to Glenn Beck’s website, is ridiculous. Everyone does is. I’m just glad this website has some real substance behind what its headlines say.

Keeping this Lady as the minority leader in the House merely PUTS ANOTHER NAIL IN THE COFFIN of sensible Government.
.
She says she wants to play a crucial role in reducing the deficit. GIVE ME A BREAK . . . she is part of why the deficit is as high as it is. MRS PELOSI . . . IF YOU WANT TO HELP . . . JUST RETIRE.
.
It is time that all POLITICIANS in Washington D.C. LEARN THE ART OF FAIR NEGOTIATION.They are so grid locked, they probably have to SUBMIT A BILL before getting permission to go to the bathroom.

  TRUE….their definition of fair would be that that the LIBS allowed the CONSERVATIVES to read a bill after it was shoved down their throats.
  .
  AS TO THE SECESSION . . . If the nation should collapse, it may have to be an option one day . . . However, if any thing should go down, and there is an oppressive regime in office at that time; your names on these petitions would certainly HAVE PUT YOU AT THE TOP OF THE LIST for internment camps. Ask big SIS. She has put Veterans on a list of potential terrorists.

  shrew (shr)
  n.
  1. Any of various small, chiefly insectivorous mammals of the family Soricidae, resembling a mouse but having a long pointed snout and small eyes and ears. Also called shrewmouse.
  2. A woman with a violent, scolding, or nagging temperament; a scold.
  
  Note the second definition, not the first.
  
  But, having reviewed the first one, I’m not so sure it doesn’t apply as well: “having a long pointed snout and small eyes and ears.” Maybe the small eyes and ears are responsible for her failure to see or hear reason and reality.
  
  On second thought, I’m pretty sure she is selfishly willfully ignorant.

  JERK : with the Ron Paul people dividing us more, no wonder conservatives aren’t getting anywhere. Princess Nancy has a point about that ” unity” bit. A fact that conservatives have failed to grasp and which leaves them out . Bickering conservatives make for much more powerful Lefties. Bad .

  @Barber2
  While you make a good point about unity, The_Jerk got this one right. Boehner is the Chamberlain of the GOP, which is rife with useless career politicians like him. If there is to be any hope whatsoever of restoring Constitutional Conservatism to the GOP and to our nation, the gutless appeasers like Boehner MUST be removed from power kicking and screaming like the spoiled pantywaists that they are.
  
  @The_Jerk
  Knowing how you feel about Jews, I wonder if you would be appalled to learn that the great American patriot Mark Levin, who happens to be Jewish, shares your (and my) contempt for Boehner.

this commie lover is right they do have their on gavel it is red with a sickle and hammer on it, she is right they have unity, most of the democrats are commie lovers they have a agenda of a perfect utopia where everyone is equal,everyone lives in the same box,wear the same uniforms,eat what the government gives us,they think their should be no middle class,they think they can get rid of poverty,while they continue to get rich and have control, they already have their agenda { agenda 21 } they already have their leader { george soros } and most of all they have their god { obama ] they just need to get our guns and they win,and then that is when their gavel will fall on the America we all love.

This botox hag is being put back after helping to destroy the Demoncratic hold on Congress at the start of Obama’s Presidency?

that’s FABULOUS! the GOP could not better demonstrate that the Dems have zero interest in cooperation or negotiation… they expect that a 2% difference in the vote should be treated as a mandate, and while 47% may want more free money from the government, the fraction that were trying to find the right answer will quickly know they chose poorly.
