PING
Monumental work is being done. Keep up the pressure. This could actually save the party.
And which part would that be Ms. Pelosi? The part that doesn't have oil?
PATHETIC WASTE OF HUMAN SPACE.
Yea, the house GOP won’t compromise, they will totally roll over dead, cry like babies and surrender. What a bunch of spineless, worthless wimps.
“house gop in no mood to compromise...”
GOOD, EXCELLENT, OUTSTANDING, FABULOUS, FANTASTIC, MARVELOUS, SENSATIONAL, STUPENDOUS AND REALLY COOL!!!!!
GO GET ‘EM, MOP THE FLOOR WITH ‘EM, ASK FOR NO QUARTER AND GIVE NONE!!!
DO IT TO IT!!!
(phew!!!....is that clear?)
No Compromise! Stand your ground! We are right.
I certainly hope this is true and that they’ve grown backbones here recently.
Has Pelosi been reading the newspapers while on vacation?
Russia is back Ms. Pelosi.
Not a good time to fiddle with strategic reserves.
Her Botoxness cost me a lot of money with this idiotic recess. NO COMPROMISE!
That sure is some great CONpromise offered up by the Rats; if you ok increased taxes on big oil AND release of oil reserves, then, we will CONsider limited offshore drilling(of course, it will take years of negotiations to reach an CONsensus and we can’t guarantee that those delightful econut groups won’t tie it up in the courts for the next 20 years).
Not too many issues come along where one party is so clearly out of step with the citizenry. It’s time for the repubs to stand on their hind legs and take charge and credit for the issue.
This is far from the first treacherous thing the Republican Senators in the Gang of Ten have done.
Time to run someone against them in the primaries when they come up for re-election, if they don’t back off their dirty deal pronto.
How about a little discipline from the Republican leadership in the Senate, for a change.
..........The Democratic initiative will also seek to release oil from the 700 million barrel Strategic Petroleum Reserve..........
Great Pelousy! Be sure to include this in your bill so that Bush can be assured to veto it. She’s on the wrong side of the issues yet again, as Russia will disrupt oil to eastern Europe, and is talking about equipping their fleet with nucs!
Idiot!
the only reason the dems what to use the SPR is to insure American Military Defeat
I think McCains performance last night just put the Dems in a far worse position than they already are on this issue. I know that there are many within the party that completely hate the man, but McCain demonstrated the kind leadership that this party needs last night.
Keep up the pressure.
Republicans with balls!! What a novelty!
Nazi Piglosi is a joke.
This is all a bunch of smoke and mirrors and I'm glad the House GOP had the foresight to see it as such. Releasing oil from the SPR will only provide relief for about two weeks and we'll be right back where we are now. Forcing oil companies to pay more taxes will only go to the Dems' enviro-wacko special-interest groups, and besides both the federal government and the oil companies are already spending millions in clean energy. And a Renewable Electricity Standard? More federal government bureaucracy.
The RINOs in the Senate have got to come to their senses or else the party is doomed in November.
Wow, a few Republicans broke into the testosterone locker! Great!
