Nancy Pelosi Kicks the Ladder Out from Under Another Qualified Woman »

Well, folks, we have a winner! I’ve been pondering which government official most deserves to sit at the left hand of Lucifer and at last I have found her! Speaker Nancy Pelosi did her level best to kick the ladder out from under Hillary Clinton last year, truly the most qualified of the [...]

Obama and Pelosi Ram through Health Care, Ignoring “The Urgency of Now” on J.O.B.S.… »

Just before midnight Saturday, the House rammed through the 2,000 page monstrosity laughingly known as the health care bill. I’d say they did it under cover of night, reneging on a promise of a 72-hour waiting period. Again, who read this thing? How much arm twisting was involved to prevail in this [...]

Zenyatta, A Perfect 14 - 0 Record »

Yesterday was one for the ages. No, I’m not talking about the House of Representatives passing their Health Care Reform Bill. No, I will give you a break from the lunacy that is our Congress, one that passes a bill with little time for review thus resulting in Nancy Pelosi violating her promise of [...]

Happy Halloween! **Open Thread** »

Well, it being Halloween and everything, I thought about doing some snarky kind of post about politicians who are particularly scary, like Nancy Pelosi, or Barney Frank. But then I thought, “Why ruin a perfectly nice holiday?” Ahem.
So - for your enjoyment, I have the following photographs, sent to me by my cousin, [...]

Feeling The Love? »

One just has to wonder what prompted the child in the video below to ask Obama the question he did. Maybe people in his household were decrying the lack of it, or maybe this child was picking up on the animosity in the air, or maybe he just wanted to share the good news [...]

“shifting financial obligations of this magnitude to future generations is immoral, unacceptable and unsustainable” »

“We are spending enough of our kids’ money,” the letter said. “Our country needs to get back to following the teachings of Romans 13:8, which says we should ‘let no debt remain outstanding.’”
“In our view, shifting financial obligations of this magnitude to future generations is immoral, unacceptable and unsustainable,” the senators’ letter said.
“All of us [...]

It’s WHOSE Meeting?? »

There seems to be some confusion over whose meetings these town halls are. Silly me, I thought they were held for the constituents of the particular representative or senator holding them. Evidently, I was wrong, at least according to this organizer for HCAN at the town hall held by Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) in [...]

Thanks For Clearing That Up, Pelosi And Hoyer »

Wow, have I ever been laboring under a false impression! I thought, from what the Constitution (and Bill of Rights) contained, that US citizens have the right to assemble, and the right to free speech. Oh, and that our representatives worked for US, and not the other way around.
Was I ever [...]

Are Your Representatives Chickening Out? Hold Your Own Town Hall Forum! »

Friend to NQ, Kathleen Wynne from HandCountPaperallotsNow made a suggestion after seeing the negative spin the MSM is putting on reports of concerned citizens calling out their representatives on the issue of health care reform, even if all they want is for them to READ the damn thing. Here are some of her suggestions: [...]

Nancy Pelosi Needs To Apologize »

(bumped up from Thursday morning)
Yesterday I was appalled to watch the Speaker of the House comment on Press Secretary Robert Gibbs’ assertion that the anger at these town halls over health care reform is “manufactured”. The reporter asked, “Do you think there is legitimate grassroots opposition going on out there?”
Nancy Pelosi made the following [...]

Obama Administration Rejects Transparency on Healthcare »

In today’s LA Times, Peter Nicholas reports White House declines to disclose visits by health industry executives, “citing an argument used by the Bush administration, the Secret Service rejects a request from a watchdog group to list those who have visited the White House to discuss the healthcare overhaul.”
Reporting from Washington — Invoking an argument [...]

Soldiers And WORMS »

(bumped up from yesterday)
As some of you know, my mother suffered a stroke recently. I am currently in my home town spending time with her and getting her house in order. As a result, I rushed a recent post on “DADT” I wrote in order to get to the nursing center in a timely [...]

Stop Making Excuses For This Guy!! (Correction) »

“This Guy” being President Obama, and the ones making excuses for him are people in the LGBT community. In this particular instance, I mean over “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Yes, the Supreme Court has rejected a challenge to “DADT” in the case of Infantryman, and JAG officer, James Pietrangelo II (H/T to Soldier4Hillary [...]

“What Goes Around, Comes Around …” & “The End Justifies the Means …” »

“What Goes Around, Comes Around …”: First, the WSJ panel, aired every weekend, goes over the Pelosi mess. Then the panel gets into the bullying by the Obama administration of the state of California, ridiculing Obama for his, um, loose interpretation of the “rule of law.” It’s a great discussion:

BELOW, “the end [...]

Speaker Pelosi Limerick Contest »

It’s so hard to read one’s facial expressions when the face doesn’t move
It’s time to have some fun at the Speaker’s expense. I’ll go first.
Nancy was caught in a web of her lies.
The CIA hopes that she fries.
President Obama we trust
Will toss her under the bus.
And Steny can try on speaker for size.

Nancy, Your Slip Is Showing! »

Here’s my favorite section from Nancy’s press conference yesterday:
They mislead us all the time. I was busy fighting the war in Iraq at that time too, you know.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has violated the foremost rule of public relations: Nancy has made Nancy the story. First in our round-up of Nancy’s screwball P.R. [...]

Taking A Break ** Open Thread ** »

This past week has been a bit up and down. NH and Maine passed same sex marriage laws - YAY! And we find out more gay and lesbian soldiers have been kicked out of the military - BOO. Obama continues to morph into Bush, as I have noted on numerous occasions, but most [...]

Nancy Pelosi, As a Liar You Suck. [Video Update] »

Nancy Pelosi, you’re worse than a 15-year-old getting grilled by angry parental units who caught their kid trying to sneak into the house in the middle of the night. You try in vain to compose creative lies, each one more laughable than the last, while battling the intoxicating effect of a gallon [...]

Nancy: The Hits Keep Comin’ [UPDATE: Boehner Ups The Ante] »

(bumped up and updated extensively)
HOT UPDATE: John Boehner is taking it right to Nancy, proving that “what goes around comes around,” and that Obama just did NOT think through the torture memo “blowback.”
Politico’s Glenn Thrush reports that Rep. Boehner is “asking the Obama administration to release CIA notes taken during a 2002 briefing session [...]

who’s going down for the torture memos? »

(Bumped up from early morning.)
In my earlier post, holder: obama does not decide who will be prosecuted, I wrote,
“It appears Obama opened a whole can of worms with the release of these memos. Not only does he lack the authority to decide whether there will be prosecutions or not, I assume he also put members [...]
