Pelosi urges House to be patriotic and "support our middle class, support our democracy. Vote aye" on the Senate 'cliff' bill.

Democratic House leader Nancy Pelosi delivered her usual, hyperpartisan, blame-GOP diatribe before the final vote on the Senate’s fiscal cliff tax hike/puny spending cut bill. Her closing argument: Voting no would be un-American.
Conservatives didn’t take the demagogic flag-waving too well.
ARRGGHHH Pelosi just said that the house needs to be "patriotic" & support our "democracy" by passing the fiscal cliff…what an idiot.
