House Majority Leader Tom DeLay and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi traded charges over who is more unethical yesterday as Congress prepared to adjourn for the year and leaders hoped to pass a $388 billion spending bill and possibly the intelligence overhaul measure today. Congress must pass the spending bill before leaving town, while the intelligence bill though it would be a huge accomplishment is not a must. With some House negotiators insisting on inclusion of immigration provisions stemming from the September 11 commission report, House and Senate negotiators remained stalemated last night.

Ya well, Pelosi makes want to hurl.
We have to thank Nancy Pelosi for our gains in the House. She is the best reason to vote for the GOP. She is a deranged West Coast fanatic.
She otta have her own TV show - The Lone Deranger.
What a hag.
Chris Bell is just slinging mud. He is full of it. Dumber than ditch dirt.
With all due respect......
Nancy Pelosi is a deranged COMMUNIST fanatic from San Francisco.
But you're correct.
Her little Stalinist rantings help the GOP.
And let's not forget that she was elected as her party leader in the House for the sole purpose to move the Rat's further LEFT. After the constant loses of House seats 'they' decided that being 'centrist' (ha-ha-ha) was a losing strategy and that alienated 'their base'. So the 'logical' thing to do was to be more "progressive" (i.e. communistic).
Heck, Ole 'Nance' would be lynched in most "red" counties.
(figuratively speaking of course)
The new complaint, reported by U.S. News & World Report's Washington Whispers column yesterday and confirmed by The Washington Times, stems from a 1996 incident in which a couple intercepted and taped a cell-phone conversation Rep. John A. Boehner, Ohio Republican, was having with Republican leaders. The couple passed the tape on to Mr. McDermott, then on the ethics panel, who then leaked the tape to the press, including the New York Times.
After charges bounced up and down the federal courts, a federal district court judge last month ruled that Mr. McDermott "participated in an illegal transaction" and must pay a $60,000 fine, plus Mr. Boehner's attorney's fees.
I hadn't heard the latest in the battle against the Saddam-supporting McDermott. Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy...
$60k to these lawyer scumbag thieves means nothing.
They run the largest and fastest sector of our economy --- and they produce??? NOTHING but pain, hate, discontent, and FEAR. They also DESTROY what has made this country the greates nation ever - self reliance, motivation, and responsibility.
