Something Going Down In Pelosi’s Office

By Equity Private

We already know it’s Paulson’s modus operandi, but Politico reports others working on the deal are (probably) getting down on their knees as we speak (type): “Just before 11 p.m., Paulson, the two principal GOP negotiators – Sen. Judd Gregg (R-N.H.) and House Republican Whip Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) – Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-Ill.), Pelosi chief of staff John Lawrence and White House legislative affairs aide Dan Meyer walked into Pelosi’s office.
They offered no news to reporters waiting in the hallway, but the details of the negotiations were beginning to become clear. ”

    @3you’re a real prick. are you seriously just here to make obnoxious comments at almost 12 saturday night? also, perhaps you should familiarize yourself with the definition of “cribbing,” which does not include fulling giving the source credit, which she did, moron.
    –verb (used with object)
    18. Informal. to pilfer or steal, esp. to plagiarize (another’s writings or ideas).

    carney is so full of shit it’s incredible.
    step 1: read story from msm
    step 2: create quotes from imaginary sources that fit with said story.
    “Update (12:15 a.m.): A person familiar with the progress of the negotiations says describes the progress over the last hour as “significant.” The person warns, however, the there may be a bit of room fatigue setting in, as negotiators drop objections out of exhaustion, making an agreement seem closer than it actually is. Many lawmakers, particularly GOP House members, who are not taking part in the talks will still need to be consulted.”
