The old witch is at it again.
David Roger at Politico reports:
After an angry, swearing late night meeting among top Democrats, Congress voted Friday to give itself another five days to try to complete a long-overdue omnibus spending bill that had become a growing embarrassment for party leaders and President Barack Obama.
[…] Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D.-Nev.) and his deputy, Majority Whip Richard Durbin (D.-Ill.) were called to Pelosi’s office late Thursday night and ultimately prevailed in their argument that Democrats should try to salvage the bill, which includes critical spending increases for vital agencies. But the heated, sometimes profane, exchanges were described as “ugly” by Democrats on both sides of the Capitol. Staff, kicked out in the hall, could hear the yelling, and Pelosi herself seemed a little abashed the next day, joking that nothing her leadership could say to her now would match the night before.
[…] The speaker’s scorched earth alternative, killing the omnibus, was too much for some in her own leadership. But Pelosi’s anger is shared by many House Democrats along with the fear that the Senate debate is being dragged out by Republicans as part of a concerted campaign to pummel Obama even as the young president tries to keep the nation focused on his economic agenda and budget going forward.
I wonder if she reminisced of the happiest day of her life, while tearing them all a new one.

I'll get you, my pretty!
What a missed opportunity! She was trapped in an interior room. Surrounded by her lackeys. In that profane cacophony, who would have been brave enough to do the deed? Oh the joy, the rapture, to see Reid and Durban on their knees, handing over her broom!
“I’m melting…I’m melting…Oh what a world……”
