WHERE in the world are Reid and Pelosi?

[babylonsister]

WHY aren't they on MTP, instead of Biden, for the hour?
WHY aren't they on Face the Nation, instead of Roger Simon, from Politico.com?

Don't they have a case to make for our soldiers, appropriations, better equipment, stop the war? Shouldn't they be making the case that the dim one should NOT veto their bill?

WHY are they not on every channel? That's the way to get the message out, and they aren't doing it.

1. I doubt they get invited to too many Republican parties.

And face it...that's what the Sunday "news" shows are; showcases for Republican positions. The only reason they'd have Reid or Pelosi on would to ridicule them, and the polls show the American people aren't in the mood for that right now. So instead we get Republicans given air time to cover their asses, or Joe Biden...uh...why exactly was Joe Biden on teevee anyway?

4. I would like to know if either of them ASKED to be on; I just bet they

would have been given the platform.

2. Because our oh so "liberal" media doesn't want them

It's all in who they want on the air, not in who ought to be.

5. How do you know that? nt

3. I don't know where Reid is but Pelosi is

in San Diego at the California Dmocratic Party convention.

6. That makes me feel better because that's so much more important.

7. Excellent point, babylonsister.

12. To be a leader in the House....

You have toget elected to the House...

Politics at the state level are extrememly important to build winning coalitions, talk to prospective congressional candidates all in one day, and listen to the concerns of the poltical people back home...

It's all part of the job...

8. good question - this is the big week for the Iraq funding bill

why aren't they on the shows?
there has to be some reason(s)- they are definately lying low.

9. MTP is doing an hour long segment with EVERY presidential candidate..

According to Tim Russert.

It was Biden's turn. Russert said that every candidate, both parties, had agreed to the hour long shows.

11. I was @ a dinner last night in Pelosi's honor.

Biden didn't show @ the convention in California. All the rest of the candidates did though.
