Nancy Pelosi - Speaker of the House of Representatives, and wild-eyed 95-pound apostle of ineptitude – adjourned the House today, and the Democrats headed off for vacation, leaving Republicans home alone. The GOP reps, angry that the Democratic leadership refused to take action on a bipartisan energy bill before adjourning for the month of August, refused to leave, and have been continuing their discussion of energy policy among themselves and with tourists, local visitors, hobos – anybody who wanders onto the floor. Pelosi was not amused and had the lights and microphones turned off (which, along with adequate tire inflation, is apparently all the Democrats have to offer in the way of an energy policy). But quick-thinking Republicans brought in camcorders.
Comical but, I think, effective as a way to demonstrate the fundamental lack of seriousness on the part of the Democrats when it comes to dealing with escalating fuel prices. Best line so far is from Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, a Republican from Michigan: “This is the people’s House. This is not Pelosi’s politburo.”
Maybe Pelosi & her posse think doing nothing on energy is the way to get Obama elected in November, that we'll all break out with BDS. Do they know he's not running?

I think the Dems plan on running against Bush as long as they can.
ReplyDeleteDisgusting, but not unexpected. The Pelosi Gang is deathly afraid of losing on an energy vote which would let us drill where we need to drill for more oil, which in turn would lose the Pelosi Gang the votes of their naked, bicycle-peddling nutball constituency back home.
ReplyDeleteLet us link the Pelosi Gang with their ideological natural son, Barack Obigmouth, and have done with it.
McCain '08.
The Dems are screwing themselves with the American populace here - they are so detached from the everyday people's lives that they claim to represent.
ReplyDeleteI hear that the Ubermessiah is "positioning" himself on renewed oil-drilling.... I'd like to see the socialist unity at the next Reid/Pelosi/Ubermessiah meeting; especially if he chooses a governor of Virginia (coal) as his running mate.
I'd like the names & phone numbers of the clowns in Congress who really do take "For the Good of the Nation and Her People" into consideration. And what they've stood for and stood up for.
ReplyDeleteScum-sucking power-hungry leeches, the lot of 'em. And it starts at the very lowest levels of government. (hack...spit)
