LIVE THREAD: Pelosi & Reid presser on lobbying reform - C-span 1; 2:00Pm EST ( will Nancy blink?)
one man's opinion.......

Posted on 01/18/2006 10:49:49 AM PST by ken5050

Dem leaders Reid & Pelosi will hold a joint presser on the Hill to announce their plans to reform Congressional practices and to try and tie the Abramoff scandal to the GOP. Yesterday Hastert and Drier got out in front of this story, announcing GOP plans in this regard. What will the Dems say...If you're housebound because of the rotten weather, and STILL have power and cable, do tune in..

Harry just said that OBAMA will speak after Pelosi, BECAUSE it will show that WE WANT TO CHANGE things...

AND, having the freshman senator that happens to be black speak 3rd...is for what reason???

I was very busy yesterday and didn't get to see the Republican equivalent to this...

HONESTLY...can any of you say that there was the nastiness at ALL shown ....or are the Republicans gonna just sit back and blame themselves like McCain wants them to???

They are talking about tax cuts, and just about every single thing they feel was a mistake by Bush...and throwing it out...and lumping it into a "Corruption" tag...

You know, like how Bush wanted our kids and grandkids to be able to have personal retirement accounts, knowing that businesses and the government will NOT have the money to finance their retirement...CORRUPT THEY TELL YA!!!

Someone suggested yesterday...that some of this is because of the Barrett report coming out tomorrow...and to get out ahead of that...

Obama is going to talk about the "cost of corruption" to America....and he is qualified, how???

Where is Raum Emmanuel...I hear he is in line for a possible indictment...
