Pelosi and Spending and Balanced Budget

EVEN UNDER BILL CLINTON'S PRESIDENCY PELOSI VOTED AGAINST THE 1995 BALANCED BUDGET PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT!!! 

Pelosi voted against the 1995 Balanced Budget Proposed Constitutional Amendment, which was passed by the House by a 300-132 vote, but in the Senate fell two votes short of the 2/3 super majority required (with 65 out of 100 Senators voting in favor).[62]

Folks this is how politics in DC works.  If you remember, this was after Republicans took control of the House. 

Summary:  No matter how great a proposal is for America, depending on who's in control the other party will seldom support it, unless not supporting it would be bad for their political careers. 

Just one more reason it time for TERM LIMITS.
