Re: Pelosi a Total Failure
Have you seen what happens when a Democrat tries to cut off funding, essentially their only means for "ending the war"? They're lambasted for not supporting the troops, being unpatriotic and throwing up a white flag. It's an absolute double-edged sword. Suggest that things in Iraq are improving and commitments you made to end the war have since changed (ala Obama)? You're called a flip-flopper and portrayed as indecisive and incompetent. Cut off funding? You're portrayed as an anti-American, anti-military, deserter.
It's a clever trick, but anyone with a brain can see through it.

Re: Pelosi a Total Failure
It's legitimate to say that they shouldn't have run on that. However, it's absurd to suggest that there is something wrong with Democrats supporting the GOP agenda. When a Democrat says, "Things in Iraq are looking up. The surge has shown great progress," they're basically saying, "I have seen the light." Instead of trying to build coalitions to actually improve the War in Iraq further, the GOP seems to view this as a green light to attack.

It will take a new congress too. Right now politicians are working for partisan politics, not us. You can see the members on this board that have been so brain-washed by their own party--that they can't see the forest through the trees. No matter how wrong their party is -- either republican or democrat--they are on this board in force defending very bad decisions. This is the worse congress I have ever known, & I have been around for 55 years. There is a complete stale-mate in congress simply because they all have one single goal. That is to win both houses & the white house too. That is all that is on their minds--& they don't give a dam about the hard working Americans who write their pay-checks. Unfortunately--they all have what they want. Politicans in congress are paritisan to the core, & their millions of constiuents are too. No matter how bad it gets--soaring inflation, high energy costs, medical care, education, social security or medicare. They aren't going to do anything, because they know out here in never never land--they have all their partisan support, no matter what they do, or should I say what they don't do. We see this every day, & ignore it. There is no compromise, no working amoung themselves to come out with something that will work & I mean work for us. At every opportunity Nancy Pelosi is in front of a micro-phone & camera slamming P. Bush or someone else, (while leaving out the critical portions of why they voted against what she wanted). The last two years have been nothing more than a dog & pony show & for what? Their absolute rabid hate for G.W. Bush. So be very careful for what you wish for: Meaning a democrat house, senate & white house. It wasn't that long ago that it was reversed. If you really want to make a difference. Don't vote along party lines, vote for the best person who will represent YOU (regardless of party status). It takes a little extra effort to investigate their ideas, but believe me, in the long run it would be worth it to you & to each & every American. This is exactly why I am a registered Independant.

Re: Pelosi a Total Failure

Re: Pelosi a Total Failure
I don't mean to get of the topic here but any democrat that does not support off shore drilling is a failure in my book....
