Nancy Pelosi’s an Idiot
So the $700 billion bailout bill didn’t pass the House because Pelosi decided to piss off half the chamber with an incendiary partisan speech minutes before the vote. The fact this shrew is in office is just more evidence we should give San Francisco to Cuba.
Below is House Minority Leader, aka Awesome Dude Supreme, John Boehner commenting:

LOL more Dems voted against it them Republicans! I guess her speech was THAT bad.
Democrats – 140 (yes), 95 (no)
Republicans – 65 (yes), 133 (no), 1 (abstain)
Bill fails 205 to 228 with 1 abstaining

That’d be more as a percentages – 68% v. 49%

And also sadly incorrect percentages.
Democrats: 140 (yes), 95 (no) – 140/235 is 66.8% of Democrats voting yes.
Republicans: 65 (yes), 133 (no), 1 (abstain) – 65/199 is 40.4% voting yes.
So, 33.2% of Dems and 51.6% of Reps voted against it.
