Pelosi hits back at MSNBC host about negotiations 'It's not just about dollars. It's about values'

[egbertowillies]

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was interviewed on MSNBC. She had to firmly but graciously hit back at the host about blame in the current stimulus negotiations' failure.

1. Kristen Welker 'overplayed her (poker) hand,' chump,

not Nancy Pelosi the Speaker who knows what she's doing, and the lives and values at stake as she outlined so well.

5. +1 Absolutely!

When I saw this clip this morning, I was shocked by her arrogant tone in insisting that Nancy had failed to "find the middle ground" and had "overplayed her hand." Nancy has had years of experience in dealing with Republicans on things like this, and her instincts have nearly always proven to have been correct!

In any case, I loved Nancy's response: "The middle ground is not Sophie's Choice!"

6. Kristen was feeling empowered, bold & she's nada, esp.

compared to Speaker Pelosi. I never cared for her and now she's done..

Nancy shoulda taken her outback to the woodshed, like Liz Warren. heh!

2. Interviewer did not do well.

Nancy ate her for lunch IMO.

3. Welker is a normalizer and apologist for the orange one..I put her in the same

bucket with kornacki, toad, kumar,..they are like nails on a chalkboard to me...kcdc (whenever someone on her show expresses an opinion..kcdc, "harumph&quot , a mitchell (mz. snark herself), are a close second..

Glad to see msnbc recognizes the toad has no creative thought - or follow-up..

Good on ya', Nancy - but then Nancy has her number...I saw Nancy do that to Andrea M as well...
