Botox vs Baghdad
Nancy “Botox” Pelosi versus Baghdad Bob Gibbs. It’s great to see two progressive spinsters involved in a bitch-fight. Pelosi didn’t like the comments made by Gibbs about the Democrats likely losing the House and Senate to Republicans.
Fox News reports:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the driving force behind the Obama agenda in Congress, sharply criticized White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs during a closed-door House Democratic caucus meeting late Tuesday, according to Democratic sources.
Pelosi, irked since Sunday by what she and other top Democrats considered Gibbs’ careless and dismissive comments that Democrats could lose their House majority this November, upbraided a top White House aide as she knocked Gibbs’ unwelcome handicapping of House races.
“How could he [Gibbs] know what’s going on in our districts?” Pelosi said, according to Democrats who attended the meeting. “Some may weigh his words more closely than others. We have made our disagreements known to the White House.”
Senior Pelosi staff contacted the White House Monday to express displeasure with Gibbs’ statement on “Meet the Press” that Democrats could lose the majority won in 2006 after 12 years out of power.
I guess the truth does hurt.
