Nancy Pelosi Compares Republicans to Bacteria

Nancy Pelosi just can't help herself. Yesterday during an event in Florida, Pelosi moved away from the typical "Republicans want to kill granny" argument to "Republicans are the E. Coli club." E. Coli, if you aren't familiar, is a form of bacteria that can be deadly. Why the comparison? Pelosi was trying to argue that the Republican plan to cut spending and reign in government waste will result in no food safety standards, for seniors in particular.

"This is the E. coli club,” Pelosi said of the Republicans. “They don’t want to spend the money to do that. Bless their hearts, it’s the philosophy that the Republicans in Congress have.”
