Pelosi: Impossible To Negotiate With House GOP

DYLAN SCOTT – SEPTEMBER 27, 2013, 11:22 AM EDT

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi sought Friday to lay the blame for a possible government shutdown on congressional Republicans, saying that they refused to negotiate on the issue.

Pelosi pointed to the GOP's inability to reconcile their competing factions as the reason that the federal government is a few days away from shutting down.

"It's impossible for Democrats to negotiate with House Republicans when they can't negotiate with themselves," Pelosi told reporters. "We don't know what we're going to vote on from one minute to the next because I don't think they know what they're going to vote on."

"I don't know that they even know what they're doing," she added.
