Pelosi gives away meat, keeps the bread
And calls it the best sandwich ever. And the rest of us get to watch another snookering of the Democrats by the mob that never had a valid policy idea but they sure can screw up anything of value.
Late in the negotiations that preceded Thursday’s breakthrough, Ms. Pelosi agreed not to include two proposals that have broad support among Congressional Democrats: an extension of unemployment benefits and a temporary increase in food stamps.So in exchange for a somewhat broader one time drop in the bucket, she gave away the only proposals with any real value. What a hard nosed negotiator she is! I sure am glad I'm not her pooch.
In exchange for those concessions, the Bush administration and House Republicans agreed that the stipend of at least $300 would be paid to all workers who earned at least $3,000 last year, even those who did not earn enough to pay taxes.
