I think I've figured out why Nancy can't see Bush's criminality...

[Hubert Flottz]

Too much Kool-Aide at those big taxpayer funded parties she's been attending over at the White House. She's been turned into a book selling Bushborg. There's something really Vichy about Numb Nancy.

[ixion]

1. As I told the neighbor-lady, she's either dirty or being blackmailed

because I don't think she's stupid, so there's simply no other explanation, IMO.

[madokie]

3. I say shes dirty and is being blackmailed because they can because of that dirt

To me its obvious as to the senators who aren't being blackmailed, such as Leahy, Sanders, Feingold, Durbin and several others

[bdamomma]

32. Cheney wiretapped them all, I wouldn't doubt it.

[madokie]

36. as evidence of dirt became available through spying and the need arived

and not not one second later. He is a sick man, way sicker than any American pol prior to him

[MonkeyFunk]

6. Then who's blackmailing Howard Dean and Barack Obama?

They have the same position on impeachment that Pelosi does.

[ixion]

9. Then maybe they're dirty

Because anyone who doesn't see a need to enforce our Constitution of political reasons is being intellectually dishonest, and therefore suspect.

[MonkeyFunk]

15. Or maybe they can count to 67

a skill which seems to be alarmingly rare around these parts.

[ixion]

21. I care about the Constitution and Bill of Rights

I care that these documents are now in the crapper because of these people who care more about counting and keeping their power dry than upholding the documents that represent the mission statement of this nation.

[AmyCamus]

45. You're saying that Obama doesn't. You shouldn't be saying that.

All this Pelosi bashing isn't helping.

[ixion]

47. I'll say what's on my mind...

It really doesn't matter to me what party some one belongs to. What matters to me is that do their job well. Pelosi deserves everything she's getting. And as for Obama, it remains to be seen. It he continues the bogus and entirely unconstitutional 'war' on terror, then no, I'd say he doesn't give a hoot about the Constitution.

[Hubert Flottz]

7. I had such high hopes for her in 2006.

I should have seen that she was a Blue Dog, back then. GOPer lite! When I hear Pelosi I reach for the Prilosec! What a disappointment.

[helderheid]

37. You heard about those DOJ lawyers who were speaking in code because they feared their physical

safety because of Cheney. Can you imagine if the threats extended to their family members?

[Demeter]

2. Nancy Pelosi Is a Miserable Failure

We the People have been cheated by her "service". Funny thing is, I'm not sure she is aware of her failure. She thinks the protestors are just a faction of malcontents. She doesn't realize the depth or width of the disgust she's earned by her cowardice and co-optation.

And she doesn't realize what her job description is, and how she's failed to fulfill it.

She lives in her own little high-priced bubble, just like that other Miserable Failure, happy as a clam at high tide. Well, the tide's going out, Nancy, and the clam diggers are coming armed with their implements, to remove you from your cushy life.

Maybe someday she'll wake up and realize how she sold her country down the river of Denial. But maybe not. $92 million buys a lot of distraction and privacy.

[RNdaSilva]

5. But, what about her constituency?

We the People are not voting for her.

[bdamomma]

34. good for you guys.

she's not listening to her constituents.

[Philosoraptor]

4. She & I used to be an item, now I don't even want to talk about her.

[rpannier]

8. My condolences on the break up

But in the end, it's probably for the best.

Afterall, you're an intelligent, open-minded, person who sees the world in the many shades of color that are out there.

She can't ever see past the color green (money)

on edit: I found your response funny and wish I could have recommended it

[Philosoraptor]

13. She used me for my vote, then tossed me aside like some cheap plaything.

[Hubert Flottz]

10. Did she just lay there back then?

[Philosoraptor]

16. At first she was a furnace of passion, later she just phoned it in.

[Hubert Flottz]

19. 1-900-NANCY...?

The lights are always on, but there don't EVER seem to be anybody home. "I feel your pain!"

[mwb970]

11. I'm **very** disappointed in NP.

She earned Congress a 9% approval rating by completely failing to stand up to the most criminal government in the history of the nation. She caved! Thanks for nothing, Nancy.

There's a lot of talk about the "legacy" of the vile bush, cheney, etc. Pelosi's "legacy" is even worse, as she sat there and did nothing, other than taking impeachment, the required Constitutional remedy, "off the table" as the bush thugs stole America.

How pathetic she is.

[AmyCamus]

12. If Obama came out in favor of impeachment, would Pelosi change her mind too?

Obama's against it too, so every dead-horse beating you give her whacks him some too.

[Hubert Flottz]

17. Pelosi has been in a position to DO something.

And she has failed to act.

[AmyCamus]

20. Dean and Obama are in a position to LEAD.

And Pelosi is following their lead.

[Hubert Flottz]

22. So, who should we vote for...McSame?

Are you saying that the republicans would be a better choice in 2008?

Impeachment begins in the HOUSE. That is where Nancy has the power to start the ball rolling and Obama or Howard Dean can't do anything about starting the Impeachment process. Once the evidence starts to come out, the support will be there, IMHO.(maybe even GOP support...IF the case is strong enough and I think that it is) That was how it worked during Watergate and I believe the case against Bush/Cheney would be far more compelling than in the Watergate or Monica-Gate cases.

[AmyCamus]

46. Are you on dope?

You typed:
"Are you saying that the republicans would be a better choice in 2008?"
You're high if that's what you think.

[Hubert Flottz]

49. It's the old "what are you smoking" attack...

I've seen this type of attack many times in the past.

[AmyCamus]

52. To counter your old "so you prefer the GOP candidate?" attack...

Cheech, perhaps your short term memory problem is the reason you failed in your attack.
I stand by my post.
"Dean and Obama are in a position to LEAD. And Pelosi is following their lead."
Only the seriously confused could read that and respond as you did.
You can remember how you responded, can't you?

[Hubert Flottz]

53. It seems to me that you blame all the democrats for one "leader's"

shortcomings.

Your name calling attacks are typical. I have nothing more to say to you.

[EFerrari]

39. They all rolled over for little Bush. Remember, no one even criticized him

in public until a whole year after 9/11. I remember because it was two women from California who both made statements in the press on the same week-end as if by design in order not to be singled out.

[rateyes]

14. She sees it, but

she's complicit. Honor among theives.

[TexasObserver]

18. I think she's simply weak.

How far back do you have to go to find a Democratic Speaker of the House worse than her?

Not Foley, not Jim, not Tip, not Carl, not Sam.

[mod mom]

23. Not to defend her but Dick Cheney frightened even the GOP members of his staff.

I have to think there is some blackmailing/or threats going on there.

[Hubert Flottz]

24. Our soldiers take the same oath Nancy took...

And they put their lives on the line for America.

[mod mom]

27. I'm not defending her-she should resign if she's not up to the job for whatever reason-

(including weak from threats.)

This appointment makes absolutely NO SENSE-why not name Cheney to serve on an ethics committee-it would be just as bad. I would love to hear a real reporter ask her WTF?

[Hubert Flottz]

29. Maybe any government official who fails to protect and uphold...

the Constitution of the United States of America, to the best of their ability, should get a dishonorable discharge.

[mod mom]

30. I war profiteering should be considered high crimes and have the penalty so severe as to

stop any thought of it.

"War is a Racket" said Smedley Butler-the man who exposed the coup against FDR. Until we get rid of the profit motive, we will continue to have elected officials from both parties sell out to the highest bidder. Sounds like treason to me.

[Hubert Flottz]

31. "Sounds like treason to me"

I agree. Sounds more like it with every new lame excuse, like..."there's simply not enough time" Not enough time, to defend the Constitution and the rule of law? Not enough time to do what the Constitution demands? Too Busy selling books and cashing checks?

[spanone]

25. stevie wonder could see the bu$h* criminality

[Hubert Flottz]

26. LOL!

Edit...Maybe Ma Bush cast an Evil Spell on Nancy's eyes over at one of those taxpayer funded Kool-Aide/Keg bashes at the White House.

[DailyGrind51]

28. All that Botox finally got into her brain!

[The Stranger]

33. Because she is a criminal herself.

[bdamomma]

35. don't count on your government to listen to the people

we are nothing to them, although they should not underestimate some of us.

[Tennessee Gal]

38. Nancy has blinders on.

It is a disgrace that she has turned her back on the lies and crimes of the current administration.

[opihimoimoi]

40. Whatever happened to the Nance we once knew? 3rd in line for the Top Baton and she........

Her dogs got kidnapped?? held for ransom?

Why did she change? Or did she? perhaps a DINO? Hiding all these years? Or a recent DINO...tasted the swill in the Pub Trough and got addicted to Pig Food?

WTF?

[Hubert Flottz]

41. She is in the toxic political swamp up to her eyeballs.

I'm afraid she's a Joe Lieberman democrat.

Willy is in the dog hospital. I'll know how he's going to be later today. He's really sick.

[opihimoimoi]

43. Willy is in his prime...?? musta ate sumpthin? buffos? Snakes? scorpions

I pretty sure the vets can solove it

Another Joe??? Who knew....Damn?

Stay away from the swamp..its toxic....pig swill of the Pub Kine....

Cheers

Come, we go surf.....stay cool

Opi

[Hubert Flottz]

51. Willy is in real bad shape and he might not make it.

If he made it until this morning he might get better. I'll find out in about a half hour if he lasted the night. Day before yesterday he was running and playing and we had no idea he was sick. He'd had his check-up at the vet about 6 weeks ago and nada. They say he has pancreatitis and some fluid in his lungs. He's on IVs and some other meds. I checked in on him at 8:00 last night and he wagged his tail a little bit, first time all day he did that.

EDIT, 8:13 EDT...Willy is still hanging in there this morning, but is still really sick.

[mmonk]

42. self delete on further thought.

I want to stay a member of DU in good standing. But there's less of my tongue to bite these days in regards to commenting on her.

[Individualist]

44. She sees his criminality

Who could not? Pelosi is toeing the DLC line, so she'll do and say anything to obstruct impeachment.

[Skittles]

48. she sees it

she's just a coward who declines to do anything about it

[Hubert Flottz]

50. Did the oath she swore mean nothing to her?

Just hollow words to her, just like the ones that constantly flow from her mouth. "Not enough time" when they campaign 24/7...

She's a member of King Dumbya's court who promised not to make waves, over kool-aide one day in the Rose Garden.
