I found this story from Politico at Mad in the Middle blog via Daily Puma. Most of the article is posted below.
Pelosi is not happy with Obama's treatment of congress. Too bad Nancy. You worked you butt off to get O "elected" (using the term loosely). You opened up the deep pockets of your PAC, funded by George Soros, and you "contributed" heavily to the campaign funds of super delegates in order to buy their votes for your hand picked guy. When you couldn't buy the votes of the SDs, you threatened. You, Screamin Dean, and Bat-sh** crazy Brazille let it be known that those who didn't fall in line and vote for your guy probably wouldn't be receiving much support from the Dem Party come re-election time. You got what you wanted Nancy. The sad truth is, snakes just don't get along all that well with each other. Sooner or later, one snake will turn on the other. Guess we'll just have to wait and see which is the bigger snake - Nancy or Obama. Family feud: Nancy Pelosi at odds with President Obama

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s increasingly public disagreements with President Barack Obama are a reflection of something deeper: the seething resentment some Democrats feel over what they see as cavalier treatment from a wounded White House.
For months, the California lawmaker has been pushing Obama hard in private while praising him in public. But now she’s being more open in her criticism, in part because she feels the White House was wrong — in the wake of the Democrats’ loss in Massachusetts — to push the Senate health care bill on the House when she knew there was no way it would pass.
Earlier this month, Pelosi criticized the president’s State of the Union call to exempt defense spending from a budget freeze. And in a White House meeting with leaders of both parties this week, she questioned the effectiveness of his plan to give small businesses tax breaks to hire workers.
“What you’re seeing now in public has been building in private,” said a top House Democratic official. “House members did their work — they did everything the president asked of them. And it gets stuck in the Senate. Or the Senate screws it up.”
Though Pelosi and other House Democrats have made it clear that they’re angry with the Senate, they’re also frustrated with the president, upset that he hasn’t come to terms with the problems of getting legislation through the upper chamber — or done enough to overcome them.
“He wants a jobs bill, we get a jobs bill,” the official said. “He wanted health care, we got health care. Then the answer is, ‘You just need to twist enough arms to pass the Senate bill.’ You can twist arms if you’ve got a handful of them to twist. You can’t twist over 100 arms. There needs to be some reality check there.”
“Both ends of the Capitol — the House and the Senate — are starting to wonder if they’re on their own,” the official continued. “You have a lot of frustration there. And the White House’s reaction to all of that seems to be, ‘Run against Congress’ — which, as you can imagine, doesn’t go over very well with House

HMG, it's amazing to watch, isn't it? It's like they're self-destructing before our eyes. Corrupt and nasty to to core.
