I will give pelosi this, it was a very unorthodox request by a presidential primary canidate.
What would she have to gain by debating him? Perry should have never made the request. It makes him look desperate.

I will give pelosi this, it was a very unorthodox request by a presidential primary canidate.
Why would Perry make such a weird request? Why would Pelosi ever want to do this? Theres nothing to gain by doing this. Weird.
Perry would make this request because he needs more traction with his republican primary voters and this both gives him media air time and, if pelosi said yes, a chance to play up to the base.
Pelosi has nothing to gain and no reason to do it.

It won't hurt perry at all with the republican base that votes in the primaries, it will help him as republicans, conservatives, teapartiers, and even libertarians dislike pelosi.
He asked KNOWING FULL WELL she would say no.
He did it so right wing fools could claim she was "scared" to debate the worst debator in presidential election debates history.
That may be true, but why is is out of the question that she wouldn't debate him? I thought you liberals wanted every chance to show your superior intelligence. Why not crush him as of course anyone speaking liberal talking points would do to a pagan non believer in the liberal religion?
Pelosi mocks Perry’s debate request - 2chambers - The Washington Post
Pelosi said:Well, he did ask if I could debate here in Washington on Monday. It is my understanding that the letter has come in, Pelosi said. Monday, Im going to be in Portland in the morning. Im going to be visiting some of our labs in California in the afternoon. Thats two. I cant remember what the third thing is.

If this gets any sort of traction with the GOP base, you guys really are fucking morons that will fall for a cheap parlor trick.
Pelosi would run circles arround the idiot Perry.
Why should she help him get more airtime so tea party people would vote for him for fighting Pelosi even to lose the fight.
They hate Pelosi ( because fox tells them to) as mcu as they hate Obama ( because fox tells them to).
Sallow, guess what
If this gets any sort of traction with the GOP base, you guys really are fucking morons that will fall for a cheap parlor trick.
Why is it a "cheap parlor trick?" Why is it out of the question one of the highest Democrats would not debate her views? You democrats keep stating it as if it's absurd and I keep asking you all why it's absurd and get no answer. Why is it absurd? She's House minority leader. She was Speaker and she rammed through Obamacare and an endless list of Democratic priorities. Why is it out of the question she'd debate that and explain her views to the American people?
That may be true, but why is is out of the question that she wouldn't debate him? I thought you liberals wanted every chance to show your superior intelligence. Why not crush him as of course anyone speaking liberal talking points would do to a pagan non believer in the liberal religion?
Because she is not running against him and it would be silly for a potential President to enter office with an adversarial relationship with the minority leader of one of the co-equal branches of government.

I'll repeat myself, I suppose:

Perry should thank Pelosi for rejecting him and keeping him from looking like the moron that he is. He should then focus on his campaign so that he might debate the person he actually wants to beat, Obama.
Repeating your position isn't an explanation. Quoting yourself repeating your position still isn't an explanation.
Though you throw the bizarre bit in at the end. Why would a debate make their relationship adversarial? Though that's silly, the woman's a complete ass to Republicans now, as if she could be worse.
You did crack me up though with the part that Pelosi would embarrass him. The woman is extremely arrogant and unpleasant and only gives canned, friendly interviews to liberal journalists. She's one of the few people who would look worse then Perry, which was clearly a factor in challenging her.
Luissa before jumping to conclusions maybe read the first few responses where I actually stated my opinion on the story
