Did Nancy Pelosi Sabotage the U.S. Economy to Help Obama?

How is the President going to “force” the MSM to cover the House?

He is the president, call a news conference, pound on it day in and day out. Make it an issue that has to be covered by calling congress back, but don't come out with a statement saying that "it will do no good" (which the White House did when the idea of calling congress back was first raised). No statement would have been better than that statement. That statement is really what set me off on this issue. If we are going to fight, lets use all our weapons.

I have called my Congressman’s 2 local offices and his D.C. office to vent my anger. How dare he go off on vacation and ignore the people’s business. Have you?

I emailed my congressman (a Rat) twice, NO REPLY. As to emailing, I have done more emailing in the last 2 weeks on this issue then I have in the past 2 years on everything else.

Some Senators are so egotistical they think they can roll anyone, well Rush did not roll.

But the point is that it gave Mary Landrieu a “get out of jail free” card when she should have been held accountable.

Little Mary Rat might have a harder time getting out of jail this year than she thinks.

Where’s the Energy? Locked up, thanks to Speaker Pelosi. By John Shadegg

It’s estimated that ANWR holds 10.6 billion barrels of oil. In 13 years, Congress has voted 17 times on access to this oil, every attempt failing. But the record is clear, on average, 91% of Republicans voted for development of oil from ANWR, 86 percent of Democrats against it.

Called my Congresscritter (Steve Lynch of Tax-achussetts) at this local Boston office, since the Washington switchboard was jammed.

” the Washington switchboard was jammed.”

That’s a good sign. People must be calling like crazy.

I called my congresscritter, and the poor aide that answered the phone got quite an earful (politely).

I know what my e-mail inbox looks like! I’d say your chances of getting a reply are between slim and none.

Call these Congressmen—that’s what I did. Now I’m getting ready to call the Democrats who aren’t in my District—like Murtha.

Bump! Thanks for the ping!
