>Nancy Pelosi says the Rs failed, but, as Sheppard Smith pointed out, the Ds have the votes to pass this thing, without the Rs. Then she wants to rail against the Rs for this mess, when the whole housing thing was brought about by the Ds forcing lending agencies to loan money to people who could not pay.....

Come on John. The Dems voted to pass it, and the Reps voted to kill it. If a mere 12 of the 133 Rep 'no' votes had been 'yes' votes, it would have passed. You can spin this any way you want, but the vote went the way it did and it's on record. I even see that Pelosi voted to pass it.
