the house controls the purse
and the Speaker controls the House.
"the national debt increased 5 trillion, or 61%, during Pelosi's reign as Speaker"...
but BOOSH YEARGHZ!!!
"The Democratic Congress’ biggest legislative accomplishments - Obamacare and the stimulus bill - have been failures in practice and unpopular with the public."
but DUBAI PORTZ YEARGHZ!!!
"A recent Kaiser poll shows that in just the past month, even Democratic support for Obamacare fell dramatically from 65 to 52 percent."
HARRIET M-I-E-R-Z YEARGHZ!!!

ORIGINATE in the House...as in House controls the purse...
when you have a corrupt dem controlled senate to go along with the corrupt dem controlled house you get massive out of control spending as evidenced with nancy and harry.
Sources Meanmachine? But no doubt that the debt went up. Of course you completely ignore the fundamental causes of the increases. 2 Unfunded wars that were not even included in the budgets of President Bush, An unfunded prescription program, 16 trillion lost to the US economy by means of the Republican religion of deregulation in the financial marketplace. I guess you never heard of Kenesian Economics and the need of government to spend more when the private sector drives us to the brink of depression. You appear to have the compass of a third grader playing pin the tail on the donkey -- in this case the democrats.
typical liberal can't read and resorts to lies and name calling as his means of "debate".
The private sector didn't drive us to the brink of depression, democrats did.
You appear to have a cranial rectal inversion the likes of which can never be repaired.
