WLS Chicago poll

How do you feel now that the Democrats are in control of congress?

81% This country is headed for big trouble.

10% It was probably time for a change.

9% Don’t know. Too early to tell.

Actually, I think it's been the MSM who has gone after Murtha.

Murtha gets his reward for sticking that shank into the backs of our troops and then twisting it, for no reason other than returning the Dims to power. Here's hoping that fat, vile, traitorous scumbag chokes on these thirty pieces of silver from the NYT.

Moran can call on the old Mafia dons that hung around with Pelosi's father when he was the mayor of Baltimore. They'll break their knee caps.

"...giving the No. 2 job to Steny Hoyer, a longtime Pelosi rival."

Checks and balances!

I've said it before and I'll repeat it now (and I'm not kidding):

Bush should spend the next 2 years inside the strongest, deepest military mountain complex we have. If Pelosi becomes President...

If the likes of Moran begin threatening some of these newbies, they're going to see a repeat of the switches during slick willie's first term.

The question is.....just what is it that they're galvanized about.....JUST SAYING NO? They thought they'd get some cover from the ISG......doubtful since President Bush made it clear he is not about to start withdrawing.

Only weaklings start backing up when the going gets tough.

My husband recalls a poll he saw a long time ago. When asking voters about corruption on the Hill, the voters said that YES, the congressmen and senators are corrupt, EXCEPT for their own representatives.

Everyone seemed to believe that their guy was the only one in Washington with morals.

I often find myself thinking that everyone from the Executive on down is JUST a politician and that not only do they all run in the same circles but they all think the same way about their constituents... pawns used to rise to higher office.

The well-known shortcomings of Mr. Murtha were broadcast for all to see — from his quid-pro-quo addiction to moneyed lobbyists to the grainy government tape of his involvement in the Abscam scandal a generation ago.

What savage indignation! If Pinch and his pals were so concerned about Murtha's morals, maybe they should have brought this up BEFORE THE ELECTION. Just two weeks ago, however, Murtha could do no wrong, according to The New York Times.

"If Murtha's past actions raise ethics questions about his fitness to be Majority Leader, why is he even a Congressman in the first place? Too corrupt to be leader, but not corrupt enough to be defeated by Irey."

Because one doesn't have to be honest to be a Senator or Congressman. One may even be a murderer and get re-elected over and over and over. Either the voters are effectively led by the nose by the mainstream media, or else the elections are fixed and the ballot box is a sham.

How else could we get the sorry lot that more than fills the seats in the Senate and Congress?

GW could really make it hot for her now. Because they are preaching Bipartisanship on the issues, He should come out and state that he would not sign any bill or law that doesn't have COMPLETE bipartisan support!

badly tarnished ally, Representative John Murtha

Funny how the Times drags this out after the election. Hillary is already throwing Pelosi under the bus. There is only room for one queen (and many queers) in the dem party. Good to see that Hillary and Pinchy are working together to create a spirit of bipartisanship within the dem party.
