It’s official: Even Pelosi thinks Congress sucks.

WASHINGTON – Add House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to the list of Americans who think Congress is doing a lousy job.

Hours after touting the Democratic-controlled Congress’ achievements at a ceremony on the Capitol steps Thursday, Pelosi confessed that she would give the legislative body low marks if a pollster asked her.

“I know that Congress has low approval ratings,” Pelosi, D-Calif., said at her weekly news conference. “I don’t approve of Congress, because we haven’t done anything that — we haven’t been effective in ending the war in Iraq. And if you asked me in a phone call, as ardent a Democrat as I am, I would disapprove of Congress as well.”

Finally, something Madam Speaker and I can agree upon: Congress stinks.

One thing though:

Not surprisingly, Pelosi said President Bush and his Republican allies are mostly to blame. She noted that Bush has vetoed Democratic-led efforts to wind down the war, expand a children’s health program and broaden stem cell research.

One thing, Nancy. Your (Congress) national approval average, is 23.8%. President Bush’s is…34.4%. Ouch.
