We hate to admit it, but Nancy Pelosi may have been right

October 27, 2009, 2:00 am · 0 comments

We may owe Nancy Pelosi an apology. We laughed at her back in February when she said 500 million people might lose their jobs every month.

But we’re now nine months into the Obama economy and it’s beginning to look like that number may be accurate.

Please accept our humblest apologies, Speaker Pelosi.
