Obama seeks reprise of Speaker Pelosi
President Obama wants to work with congressional Republicans and all that, but he is also making it clear he wants Democrats to retake control of the U.S. House and re-install Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
"My job is to make sure we move the country forward, and I think we can best do that if Nancy Pelosi is speaker of the House once again," Obama said Wednesday night during one of two Democratic fundraisers in Pelosi's hometown of San Francisco.
Obama, who spent the night in the city by the bay, has another pair of fundraisers in the area on Thursday before heading back to Washington.
While Obama outlined an ambitious agenda for his second term -- including gun control, immigration, energy, and climate change -- he also cited the fact that Republicans control half of Congress, the House. The Democrats run the Senate.
About that: "cited the fact that Republicans control half of Congress" -- Hey Barry, the Republicans were voted into office by the citizens of the United States. More than 50% of US states have Republican governors. We are coming for the Senate in 2014. Get used to it -- it's called Democracy.
