This is comedy gold. Nancy Pelosi is in it deep if she doesn't start to listen to this group.
Too bad she doesn't know i yet.
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0209/18434.htmlMembers of the group are slated to meet with President Barack Obama next week and are expected to try to secure a commitment that Obama will tackle the deficit when the crisis passes, said Louisiana Rep. Charlie Melancon, a co-chairman of the Blue Dogs.
More significantly, Melancon will press the case to adopt new rules requiring both chambers to offset any new spending or tax cuts with program cuts or tax increases.
To that end, Blue Dogs are targeting a procedural vote prior to the reconsideration of the stimulus. If Republicans remain opposed to this legislation, the Blue Dogs would have more than enough votes to bring down the procedural measure, suspending consideration of the recovery package and embarrassing party leaders and the new president.
