Sarah.....that sounds like Rdean....
Don't any of you Republicans have anything intelligent to say about Terry's OP? Surprising.. (not really)
well?.....any Republicans want to answer?.....i have an answer but i am not a Republican....my answer is......ANYTIME Mrs. Pelosi is backing something i want to check it out.....now she says we cant until its passed???.....is that supposed to make me feel relieved?....Pelosi i guess is saying "dont worry i have your back"????....that definitely makes me worry.....Nancy Pelosi only backs something if it benefits Nancy Pelosi....that alone is why i see a disaster creeping up here.....if Obama wants to sell this bill i suggest he get someone with a little better trust factor than Pelosi to help it along.....ok a Repub want to take a crack at it?.....Rdean?....you in the house?....
You know what the most frustrating thing about this is to me? That except for a few radio talk show hosts out there and a few informed blogs and on line publications, and a few message board threads like this, Pelosi and Obama are getting away with it.
If this was a Republican administration with a President and GOP Speaker who had so boldly and emphatically pledged openness and fresh air and draining the swamp and giving the people plenty of time to see what the legislation would be before it was made law, and then any Republican had said what Pelosi said? It would be screaming headlines across the country and the lead story on every newscast.
But now? Barely a ripple. No cannon fare. Just a whisper in the breeze.
I just want to scream sometimes.
(Sorry Sarah. I know this wasn't what you were shooting for, but it's the best I have at the moment.)
