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..

If you saw or read about the GOP announcement yestereday, IMHO, the MOST IMPORTANT THING was that the GOP is going to link these reforms to an attempt to get control of the 527 situation. 527 funds are the lifeblood of the Dems....the whole Soros $$$ crowd. It will be interesting to see if they are questioned on this, and what they say...

BTW..the presser is scheduled for an hour..the over/under on the number of times Pelosi blinks in an hour is...6

If this were to pass, Bill Clinton will have to stop traveling around the world at the expense of the shareholders of almost every company.

The law of unintended consequences.

Ya think your neighbors have enough PULL to get someone there to remove those trees ASAP? Taxpayer expense, of course :)
