WASHINGTON, July 21 /U.S. Newswire/ -- House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement on the two-year anniversary of the 9/11 Commission recommendations this Saturday:
"Two years ago, the bipartisan and independent 9/11 Commission released its report, outlining urgent and achievable recommendations for securing our nation. Implementing the recommendations would have fundamentally changed the way the executive branch and the Congress deal with matters related to terrorism - making us more unified and more effective.
"Yet, two years later, the Bush administration and the Republican Congress have either failed abysmally to act on many of the critical recommendations, or have failed to implement them effectively. Republicans have: voted down legislation to ensure interoperability of communications for first responders; continue to distribute homeland security funding without regard for risk, vulnerability, or the consequences of an attack; and have failed to develop a comprehensive national strategy for securing our transportation systems. The failure of Republicans to fulfill these recommendations has a simple consequence: the American people are not as safe as they should be.
"Democrats have proposed a new direction for America that will keep our country safer. On the first day we control Congress, we will begin by passing all of the 9/11 Commission recommendations."
Bullcarp.
I wonder, have there been any terrorist attacks on American soil since 9/11? No? Hmmmm...so the Bush administration must be doing SOMETHING right.
You and your moonbat friends won't control Congress, Nancy, so just STFU!
The moron socialist Nazi Pelosi AGAIN proves that her mouth and what remnant of a brain she might have, are not connected. But we are used to her mindless liberal verbal ejaculations.
Like Iran's president, that woman's tongue is hinged on both ends.
Weldon stated roughly 70 percent of the Commission's recommendations he made 3 years prior to them meeting through another committee.
The new direction that the Dems offer is nothing more than retreat and negotiate with the terrorists. That will not work and the Dems will not control Congress.
once again the dems show themselves for the peaceniks they are....I don't think America is going to give them congress
A new direction that will keep America safer, eh?
Straight into the ground, I suppose.
HA!
The only reason we needed a 9/11 commission was because the Rats, specifically commission member Jamie Gorelick, in the 1990's prohibited the FBI and CIA from sharing intelligence data which may have prevented 9/11 in the first place.
Democrats created the 9/11 commission to cover up the fact that they made 9/11 possible.
They had 8 years to improve our security. Instead they dismantled it.
Will Pella Lugosi address the rats' continuing treasonous acts? Will she point out that kerry outed a CIA agent while addressing the senate? How about that turban durbin compared our troops to Nazis, Pol pot and terrorists?
Will Pella bring up the fact that her beloved libnutmedia continues to release classified intelligence data to the public? I mean, we REALLY needed to know of the secret prisons and the LEGAL wiretaps so that our CIA/FBI can work MUCH HARDER at finding out who the bad guys are.
Gee, Lugosi, I sure hope you bring these burning points up in your speech.
Pelosi is fast becoming the party's
John Dean replacement for shooting
off and alienating party members.
The simplest response to her charge
that the Bush Administration has
failed to make us safe:
When did another attack take place
after 9-11, Ms. Pelosi? Sit on it!
Ah yes.
But now we've got the department of homeland security to keep us safe.
Maybe we need the department of tunnel security.
At least that moron Norm Mineta is gone.
Probably polluting some Soros' funded Left-Wing think tank somewhere.
