Republicans better do everything in our power so we don't end up with a Dem House and Speaker Pelosi.

"It's good to know that the race card also works when played against DemocRATS."

The race cards have been overplayed! The deck is full of JOKERS!

Are you kidding? There are three sets of rules. One for 'Rats that says that they get to make the rules, define what the rules mean, change them at whim, and ignore them at their copnvenience. Another for politicians that says that as long as you keep it hush-hush, you can pretty well do whatever you want and the rest will turn a blind eye. The third set is for us peons who get screwed at every turn by elites who think they know what is good for us better then we do.

I was wondering what the deal was that got Pelosi to back off. She had to make a pretty big concession. Jefferson around her and they party's neck is going to hurt a lot worse than booting him now.

Didn't they learn anything from Clinton?

Sell out (n): 1. Someone who compromises their principles. 2. Nancy Pelosi.

And .. this is exactly what all the other dems do - MAKE A DEAL!

The problem comes from the fact that one or the other of them has no intention of KEEPING THE DEAL. And .. it could be both of them.

The appeasement crowd is showing its true colors. Cowardice; unwilling to take a stand on anything.

The Dems keep giving the GOP tons of ammo to use against them but I seldom hear a peep about it. Of course, when the Pubs screw up the Dems take it and run with it for weeks on end. Forget the "new tone" junk and rip them a new one.

Never mind that the Republicans aren't using the ammunition -- they wll jumped to protect the Dem crook.

I really don't know what's wrong with them.

'What a revoltin' state of affairs' for the sterile cuckoo.

Steny Hoyer has more ammo for forcing the botox queen off her throne.

That's the truth! Not only do they not use it against them, they defend them. The leadership is totally lacking and I guess it'll take a total wipeout in an election or two to get some new faces in there. It's too bad we'll have to suffer for their incompetence.

No one has ever accused the Democrats of having any morals or integrity.... EVER...

The Black Congressional Caucus is living proof that Blacks are the most visible and active racists in the nation....

EVERYTHING is about RACE......
If they weren't black - they wouldn't have any identity at all...nor would they have their jobs..

Semper Fi
