Democrats in the United States House of Representatives voted today along with most Republicans to pass the debt-ceiling deal negotiated by President Obama and congressional leaders today.
Minority leader Nancy Pelosi admitted the Democrats were “screwed.”
“We’re basically letting the Republicans and the Tea Party have their way with us. We’ve decided to let them roll back all the liberal gains made since FDR.”
“Not only that, we’ve decided to change the name of the party to the “RepubloDemoTeaCratic Party”. Why even pretend we are resisting every whim of the right wing and their rich puppet masters? Or that we’re even a second party?
“We’re giving up our staffers. And our parking spaces. The Republicans and those crazy Tea Party Pimps have “turned us out” and now we’re gonna live on the streets, selling our bodies for scraps of food.”
