    Don't know what got into her and I am sure she'll be sanctioned for saying something that should have been said by many more in our congress during his term.

    It was past time someone said it. She's finally showing some leadership capabilities.

    Who cares??

    Nancy Pelosi is a turncoat just like Bush and, like Bush, lacks just as much credibility.

    She has rolled over for Bush almost every step of the way, and she made it clear after the '06 elections that she would not seek impeachment for Bush. So why should I listen to anything she says, when she is only trying to save face for herself?

    I mean, c'mon now. Don't be so gullible. Politicians will say anything to makes themselves look good. I am afraid her words come a little too late.

    Bush a failure?Come on,the Bush admnistration accomplished everything they set out to do.Simply put, make the rich richer,fuck everyone else, and that's about it.They fooled alot of people,and still are.I'd say they were successful in the worst of ways.---Congress on the other hand has been a failure so far.So in a sense what she said was very stupid,and just political double talk.

    i really miss the clinton era. people in the rest of the world not wanting to kill us, gas prices being low enough that you can actually drive on a vacation. Just general idiocrity to a minimum. although he did mess around on the side. But fuck, who cares? he was a damn fine pres. Bush hasnt done anything positive for this country. ever. And hhe cheated to get re-elected. Hes just about as corrupt as they come. I cant wait till hes gone. THen we will have another loser president drive our country even further down the tube.....im movin to canada dude lol

    In the US, we have come to expect a "bump" before an election of a president.

    Some significant event just prior to the election. Designed to sway public opinion one way or another.

    In the case of the current agenda, the continuation of an ethnic cleansing policy in the Middle East. On behalf of our self proclaimed best friend, Israel.

    Israel is a tiny country and they're looking to add on. Thats what happens when a family starts to grow. Needs more room.

    Pelosi is nothing but another contractor in the bidding process.

    I agree she's been up to this point just another drone. But it's such a relief in a way that someone had the nerve to say it out loud in congress. Maybe it'll start a trend. A little chutzpah on the part of our elected officials could go a long way. Maybe even to impreachment. I'm not going to hold my breath, but there is a faint hope.

    For so long we've all had to be so careful about talking about our misgivings in public. I know my friends and I have had to be very careful in our discussions in public. This blanket every soldier is a hero crap, and patriotism run rampant I think has lead to many of us keeping our mouths shut, and not speaking out. It's a small step in vocalizing our displeasure, but a welcome one.

    Did you see him wait till the end of his term and get Saudi Arabia to pump more gas, and now he's trying to make peace with Iran?

    The man's a maverick renegade. Sleep through your presidency and then bam. Bush is a clutch player. :

    /joke.

    Her democratic controlled congress has not done any better than the republican one that came before.

    Probably no one. You had my quote so I had to say something. If I had known yours was posted just above mine I wouldn't have posted anything. lol

    No they haven't. Just another reason not to reelect any of them.

    Not voting is not the answer. Holding all of them accountable is. If they don't live up to their promises, don't reelect them, but by not voting you allow others to choose who is elected.
