All Mouth, No Spine

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi riffing on President Bush: "God bless him, bless his heart, president of the United States -- a total failure, losing all credibility with the American people on the economy, on the war, on energy, you name the subject."

I would be more impressed if, when the crunch time comes, the House Democrats, under the leadership of Speaker Pelosi, stood up to the Bush Administration on more than just a few pocketbook issues. It is nice that they stood up to him on educational benefits for veterans and Medicare payments to doctors. But it sure would be grand if they could find the gumption to have stood up to him on the matter of the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution, among others.

  1. It's pretty pathetic when the Congress has an even lower approval rating than Bush. If I were her, I'd be doing something about that, rather than imitating the pot talking about the kettle. I was hoping the new blood in Congress would do some good, but they are politicians first and foremost.
    Just my opinion.
