Same old Pelosi and friends tactics, but I had to post just for the sentence about constituents bursting into tears in the vegetable aisle. California fruits and nuts cracking up in the vegetable aisle is a national crisis.

It does explain why Pelosi acts as she does. She has to represent these crazies.

She’s so out of her depth men and women WILL die as a result. She even wants the CIA to investigate Global Warming.

>> They burst into tears in the vegetable aisle’’ at the grocery store when they talk to her about the war.

‘She even wants the CIA to investigate Global Warming.’

I couldn’t believe this when I heard it last night on Hume’s show.

She wants a review on how Global Warming affects National Defense?

Good Lord....(eyes rolling)

Two months at a time, that way she can include new earmarks that support her husband’s business, the buildings on the waterfront, and beach restoration deals.

She’;s going to get some people killed, but what does she care. They are only Iraqi civilians. Anything to keep her constituents from feeling bad.

The sanfran ninnies would probably be crying in the whole grocery store over that.

I thought Petraus would be giving a progress update in September. By my calculation, that would require a minimum of 4 months funding. This is just another tactic to try and make sure the current effort doesn’t succeed. No matter how successful we are, they will claim it is a failure.

The Democrats are trying so hard to destroy the morale of our troops and increase the morale of our enemies. They do not care about national security, long-term geopolitics, or patriotism. They only care about the next election cycle.

Democrats only think about aquiring power by any means necessary so that they may ram socialism down our throats.

Amazing, really. And she wants to SUE Bush (assuming she can get standing)? And the pork is still in the bill?

Madam Speaker, look up the word “delusional”.

It sure is true. Funding 3 months late for two months. In July start again arguing for another 3 months for two months more of funding. Cleverly, they have only funded 2/3s of the emergency spending needed, dooming the operation.

On Friday, the House is scheduled to vote on billions in emergency farm aid that were included in the original legislation. The aid package includes farm drought relief in the Midwest, $60 million for Klamath River salmon fishermen and other items.

Let's see if the Pubbies in Congress and the President have the guts to kill this pork filled bill. I doubt it.

Only socialist Repugnant Puhlucy would arrive at this solution.

Indeed, Clear and Present Danger comes to mind.
