Here's the paraphrased quote
http://www.nytimes.com/...
{Adding to the uncertainty, Brendan Daly, a spokesman for the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, said Friday evening that the House was reserving its right to schedule an override vote anyway, arguing that the president’s pocket veto was not legally viable.
Mr. Daly said House officials believed that, under their interpretation of the rules, Mr. Bush technically could not use his power to pocket veto the measure.}
Hence Pelosi should be arguing that since Bushes pocket veto is invalid that the bill is now law. The end.
That's the logic of a caver. Very flawed.
Then Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid sound like they plan on another cave... what's new? I wonder can a citizen sue the Government to honor what should be enacted law?
{Still, (Emphasis on the word STILL as if the writer of this article could not believe the bullshit reasoning of Pelosi and Reid) Ms. Pelosi and the majority leader, Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, indicated that Democrats hoped to move swiftly to address the concerns of the White House and get the bill back to the president for his signature.}
