>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.....

I do give Nancy Pelosi part of the blame for her partisan speech. This was no time for partisanship. But there was plenty of blame to go around. More Democrats voted for it than Republicans. It wouldn't have taken many switched votes on either side for it to pass.
