‘Pigs Fly Out of My A**’: Weiner Ridicules House Democratic Leaders
(CNN) - Liberal New York Democrat Anthony Weiner predicted the Senate bill wouldn't have the votes to pass the House. Weiner ridiculed House Democratic leaders for holding a meeting to brief House Democrats on negotiations with the White House on a health care bill, telling reporters, "They're talking as if, 'What our deal is, what our negotiators are at the White House' -- yeah, and then the last line is, 'Pigs fly out of my a**' ... it's just, we've got to recognize we are in an entirely different scenario."

(Hot Air) - Give Weiner credit for some common sense here. Congress has acted as haughty to the strenuous entreaties of its constituents as Massachusetts Democrats acted to the voters in their state over the last three weeks. It’s no small wonder that anger at the disconnect between the electorate and its representatives resulted in this unexpected loss, and it’s no secret that it will result in a boatload more in November if this paternalistic attitude continues. The Obama “they just don’t know what’s good for them” prescription is nothing less than assisted political suicide on the issue of health-care reform, and Weiner’s at least honest enough to admit it.
It doesn’t look like Obama and Nancy Pelosi are convincing anyone with their bravado this week.
