Biden, Pelosi Stress Harmony On Budget

The message of the day seems to be Democratic harmony, displayed just now between Vice President Biden and Speaker Pelosi as they prepared to have lunch at the Capitol. The Democrats both expressed strong confidence that lawmakers will produce a budget that meets the administration’s goals, with Pelosi saying the House is “intent to deliver for the president.”

“I know at the end of the day, we will have a strong budget supportive of the president’s principles,” Pelosi said. She also sent a message to Republicans, saying that while she hoped a budget would pass with bipartisan support, “I know the bill will pass.”

“We’re in a position where in order to rebuild this economy, it can’t be built on a false bubble,” the former senator said. “We have to get down to rebuilding an economy that produces a solid foundation for the better part of the beginning of this century. And that requires us to deal with education, with health care, and it requires us to deal with energy, and also budget discipline built in.”http://www.realclearpolitics.com/politics_nation/2009/03/biden_pelosi_stress_harmony_on.html


I trust the House to get it done but not the Senate. Reid needs to step up but we all no he won't. WH needs to put pressure on him.

I am not sure which one is making the funnier face.

1. More and more I am liking Pelosi

She is helping the President deliver his agenda. That is why the voters gave the Party, the House, Senate and Presidency. I can not say that about some Democratic Senators though, who only now have started to think that it is their job to oppose. 8 years too late and the wrong man!

2. I agree. She is actually trying to help the President.

I had issues with her in the past but not right now. Harry Reid and Evan Bayh and others in the Senate...can't say the same.
