Just say no, Nancy.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) early Saturday morning declined to immediately embrace the budget deal President Obama struck with the GOP.

Pelosi told The Hill she had not yet reviewed the agreement.

Asked if the White House kept her informed of the negotiations, Pelosi responded, "The president told me, but I haven't seen a piece of paper."

It remains to be seen how many House Democrats will back the bill. Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) quickly criticized the budget agreement, tweeting that it reminded him of the tax deal Obama endorsed late last year.

"I gotta bad feeling," he said.

So they have voted on it, Obama is getting ready to sign it

and she has not seen the bill yet.

Sounds like a real good way to run a country.

'Sign here, trust me'

2. No, they voted on the stopgap funding (no shut down). The idea is to give

four or five days so that everybody can read the budget bill before the vote, I think Boehner is taking credit for that (but somehow I doubt he was alone on wanting people to read it.

1. Pelosi will whip just enough votes..

...for it to pass, barely, and only because Boehner can't deliver his own majority.

Which will wound him. The next time it happens -- on debt-ceiling legislation -- it will cost him his gavel.

Boehner will not be Speaker on Christmas.
