Nancy Pelosi has responded mockingly to Rick Perry’s challenge to a hold a “public debate about my Overhaul Washington plan versus the congressional status quo.”

At her Thursday morning news conference, Pelosi referenced Perry’s infamous November 9th debate brain freeze in explaining how busy she is: “Monday, I’m going to be in Portland in the morning, visiting some of our labs in California in the afternoon, that’s two…I can’t remember what the third thing is.” 

Pelosi was greeted with laughter from reporters.
