School is out, report cards are in. How fares the new Democratic Congress? Even with grade inflation, it's struggling to hit a gentleman's C.
The big question when Nancy Pelosi became speaker of the House was whether her party was up to the task of governing. Democrats wisely turned last year's election into a referendum on Republican competence. It was a shrewd strategy, though left unanswered was how they would use their new power.

Hey!!! Don’t make fun of Nancy Pelosi. You must have respect for Her Speakership. She’s got a government plane and you don’t.
She’s the most powerful woman in the world! H! sitdown.
Pretty simple.
Socialism is wrong.

.....She must be doing the professor....
Are you kidding? The slut has been screwed over by every left wing interest group in under the Rat umbrella.
This picture says it all. One can see the smug vacuity of expression. Here is a woman without a fashion clue on normal days, kowtowing to Syrian moslems

The ultimate motivation of all leftists.
A great point. Americans need to be reminded that the "progressives" picture human beings as mere proles, deserving of death in the womb. Their brave new world would be populated with gorebots, proles and clones.
“Anger Mismanagement Congress discovers there’s not much gain in Bush hatred.”
No, that is not it... America has been reminded as to why they threw out the dims in the first place. A little pain is sometimes needed to remind one of past injuries and to be more careful.

after reading the blog i’m more disturbed about what’s happening at the Red Mosque - things in Pakistan starting to get pretty ugly...
A gentleman’s C? They are in the teens in terms of approval ratings-where I come from that would get you a big fat red F.
