Washington, D.C. — Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued the following statement today on the urgent need to pass legislation to implement the 9/11 Commission's recommendations:

"As the incidents over the weekend in London and Glasgow demonstrate, we must do more protect Americans from terrorism. To make our nation safer, we must pass legislation implementing the recommendations of the independent 9/11 Commission.

"When Democrats took control of Congress in January, the first bill we passed H.R. 1, which implements the 9/11 Commission recommendations. Six months later, despite strong bipartisan support, it has not become law because of Republican obstructionism.

"I urge Senate Republicans to stop blocking this vital legislation so we can pass it as our first order of business next week and put it on the President's desk. We cannot wait any longer.”

What?

Are the 100 hours finally up?

[ChocChipCookie]

I think Nancy found religion over the weekend.

[sr4402]

What was in HR 1 so that it hasn’t gone forward? Her lips are moving so I suspect she is up to something.

[Hi Heels]

Translation: “I lost the amnesty bid and the American people think I’m an idiot, so let’s focus everyone’s attention on this little item over here so they won’t notice what a dismal failure I am as a speaker.”

[cinives]

And what nasty stuff might this bill contain ?

[weegee]

I know that there are provisions that the Democrats stand firmly against. I don’t recall if it was IDs or what.

Maybe someone else has the instant recall, I’ll have to do some research later. But check some of the other threads on the Democrat Congress and the recommendations of the 9-11 commission.

[tobyhill]

Is she planning a terrorist attack?

[norwaypinesavage]

Gosh Nan, why don’t you come up with some sort of a BIPARTISAN plan that we all can agree with. Can’t you get anything done there at all? Maybe we need new management in the House.

"I think Nancy found religion over the weekend."

Screaming, "Oh, God!" while staring at a picture of Karl Marx doesn't equate to finding religion.

[TexasCajun]

Nancy darling, Is there a recommendation about SECURING OUR BORDERS?

[P-40]

I wonder if Nancy has ever bothered to read the 9/11 Commission Report. She talks about it a lot...but does not seem to know much about what it said.

[freekitty]

If she values her queenship; she will dump her ideas into file 13.

[mtbopfuyn]

I think Nancy found religion over the weekend.

No, she found a camera.

[LibLieSlayer]

Another LIE by the peloser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LLS

[DJ MacWoW]

H.R.1

[LZ_Bayonet]

"...we must do more protect Americans from terrorism"

Like a "war on terror"?

That's just a bumper sticker!!!!!

[samtheman]

Hasn’t anyone tarred, feathered and run her out of town on a rail yet?

[NoBullZone]

Hum ... I never read the 9/11 Commission report, but I don’t recall hearing that it stated that Congress should dictate US foreign policy, as HR 1 seems to do. Just another Pelosi power-grab.

[pacelvi]

I just faxed this to her office:



To: Speaker Pelosi and other traitors:

“As the incidents over the weekend in London and Glasgow demonstrate, we must do more protect Americans from terrorism. To make our nation safer, we must pass legislation implementing the recommendations of the independent 9/11 Commission.

When Democrats took control of Congress in January, the first bill we passed H.R. 1, which implements the 9/11 Commission recommendations. Six months later, despite strong bipartisan support, it has not become law because of Republican obstructionism. I urge Senate Republicans to stop blocking this vital legislation so we can pass it as our first order of business next week and put it on the President's desk. We cannot wait any longer.”

Oh give us a break. You are the WORST political leader in this country (as opinion polls confirm). You’re one to talk about obstruction. Who’s the one who caused the emergency appropriations for the military in Iraq to be delayed FOR MONTHS for absolutely no reason? You played games with our military to cater to the Hate-America crowd and who knows what you did to give aid and comfort to the Jihadis’ cause. How do you think our military personnel felt while you blocked their money you hypocrite?

Here is a quiz, genius… what does more to endanger the country in the long-run

1 – Passage (or not) of a law that does nothing to dissuade the enemy from attacking us… doing nothing to damage his ideology, resolve , determination, will, and recruitment ability

OR

2 – Stating that the US Military HAS FAILED in Iraq. That we will withdraw our forces because the “War is Lost”. LOST TO WHOM??? Christ,, do you people realize the effect of your idiotic words? You have told the enemy (that you say we must pass laws immediately to protect ourselves against) THAT THEY ARE WINNING. How are we to defeat these religious warriors WHEN YOU ARE TELLING THEM THEY WON.

STOP UNDERMINING EVERYTHING WE ARE DOING THAT IS ACTUALLY EFFECTIVELY AND THEN HIDING BEHIND YOUR RIDICILIOUS OBSOLETE PARTISIAN HACKERY SAYING WE NEED LAWS TO PROTECT US AGAINST THE VERY PEOPLE YOU SAY ARE WINNING AND HAVE DEFEATED OUR MILITARY.

LIKE THEY’RE REALLY AFRAID OF YOU. THEY ARE ENCOURAGED BY YOU.

You and your party are a seditious disgrace. Thank God I’m not in the military, you demoralize me enough and I’m just a citizen.

By the way, the next time you put a picture of a US Military person on your website you should make sure they aren’t actually from Canada’s military. Nice going.. you claim support the military (which no one with a brain believes) yet can’t even tell when they have the word ‘CANADA’ on their uniform that they aren’t the military of this country. Disrespectfully, []
