Pelosi Already Picking Out Curtains And New Wall Paper
WASHINGTON - Franklin Roosevelt had his first hundred days.
House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi is thinking 100 hours, time enough, she says, to begin to "Totally Screw Up The Entire Country" after more than a decade of Republican rule.
As in the first 100 hours the House meets after Democrats — in her fondest wish — win control in the Nov. 7 midterm elections and Pelosi takes the gavel as the first Madam Speaker in history.(Yeah Right!)
Day One: Put new rules in place to "break the link between lobbyists and legislation."(Like that hasnt been tried, besides that would hurt your own campain.)
Day Two: Enact all the recommendations made by the commission that investigated the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. (Uh...Bush already has been doing that Nancy)
Time remaining until 100 hours: Raise the minimum wage to $7.25 an hour, maybe in one step.(Followed the next day by thousands of letters by employers laying off workers that they can no longer afford to pay for, good job Nancy) Cut the interest rate on student loans in half.(Nice if you could pull it off been tried, failed) Allow the government to negotiate directly with the pharmaceutical companies for lower drug prices for Medicare patients.(That's not the way it's done Nancy, you dont "Negotiate" with Drug companies, you TELL them.)
Broaden the types of stem cell research allowed with federal funds — "I hope with a veto-proof majority," she added in an Associated Press interview Thursday.(Dont forget all those lobbyist's and protestors, that you wanted to cut out in day 1 or 2, they will be all over your ass, and you wont get that done either)
All the days after that: "Pay as you go," meaning no increasing the deficit,(What she really means is raising taxes) whether the issue is middle class tax relief, health care or some other priority.(There wont be any relief for anyone once she raises taxes)
To do that, she said, Bush-era tax cuts would have to be rolled back for those above "a certain level."(See I knew raising taxes was in there somewhere) She mentioned annual incomes of $250,000 or $300,000 a year and higher, and said tax rates for those individuals might revert to those of the Clinton era. Details will have to be worked out, she emphasized. (By details will have to be worked out, she really means she still has no plan)
"We believe in the marketplace," Pelosi said of Democrats, then drew a contrast with Republicans. "They have only rewarded wealth, not work." (Funny Nancy I'm not wealthy and I see the increases on my paycheck, here we go raising taxes again)
"We must share the benefits of our wealth" beyond the privileged few, she added. (More Tax Raising)
Pelosi, 66, has been a leader of the House Democrats since 2002. (Way to long) But her political apprenticeship dates to childhood, when her father was mayor of Baltimore.
Now, her political base is about as liberal as it gets, San Francisco. (Isnt that the truth?) It's a fact that Republicans love to emphasize to voters who might want to visit, but not feel comfortable living there. (No foolin)
Republicans find her an attractive political target, (She is) and recently said she would try to "cut-and-run" from Iraq (She would) while "launching bitter partisan investigations" of the Bush administration, possibly including impeachment hearings. (Absolutley of course, and tie this Country up for the next 2 years with this crap, at taxpayer money and expense. We wont have a dime left when Nancy is through with us.)
A grandmother five times over, Pelosi pops chocolates, drinks coffee and flashes her wit. (That explains alot, she's probably hormonal too which adds not just fuel but carosine to the fire) Asked what offices she should would occupy if in the Capitol if she becomes speaker, she laughed. "I'll have any suite I want." (She has to be high)
She would, too. (If left to runamuck, hormonal, and high on chocolate and coffee there's no telling what she's capable of)
"If the election were held today we'd be successful," Pelosi predicted, claiming that her party's prospects are expanding as the campaign enters its final month. "So many other races are emerging right now," she said. (Maybe be should switch to decaf)
Democrats must gain 15 seats to regain the majority they lost in 1994, (Have fun) and have candidates in competitive races for 30 or so Republican-held seats, according to strategists in both parties. By contrast, only about a handful of Democratic-controlled seats appear ripe for possible Republican takeover. (Probably less, but who's counting)
Democrats have a pamphlet that lists all their promises (Remember that PROMISES!! Promises are well thought out ideas that will never be able to be accomplished, but everyone will be told they will be even if it isnt true) and have run through several slogans in the past year or so as they test campaign messages. In recent days, Pelosi said, their prospects have improved by the discovery that former Republican Rep. Mark Foley of Florida had sent sexually explicit computer messages to teenage male pages. (But it didnt bother her a bit when she worked side by side next to Gerry Stubbs D-Mass, that actually HAD SEX with a White House page only got CENSURED, and CONTINUED TO SERVE, Or Barney Frank D-Mass, who ran a homosexual prositution ring from Frank's home and he only got CENSURED! AND STILL SERVES TODAY, right along Nancy Pelosi, and she is worried about EMAIL?)
Not long before sitting down for a lunchtime interview, she turned down a suggestion from Speaker Dennis Hastert that they jointly appoint former FBI Director Louie Freeh to recommend improvements in the page program. (I bet, she knew there would be Democrats caught up with Emails and Instant Messages of thier own. If the FBI investigates)
"That was about protecting their majority" rather than the pages, (I like how she has this new found interest in protecting Pages, why hasnt she been doing that all this time?) she said dismissively. (That was about protecting Democrats from getting found out that they had sexual contacts with White House Pages too, I mean C'mon over 500 members in Congress and only 1 perv? Who are they trying to kid?)
Instead, she wants to put Hastert and other Republicans under oath and make them say what they knew of Foley's actions, when they learned it and what they did to stop him. (Nancy want's to focus this whole thing on Republicans and let the Democrats get away with thier own pervish activities)
The potential for political gain is clear to her. (Which means she's hormanal, and high on chocolate and coffee again)
"It's an opportunity for growth among women" for the Democrats, she said. "They don't always vote and this could be a motivation." (Motivated by who you?, yeah motivated to vote against you!)
With married women, in particular, it's a huge issue, she added. (Maybe the old hippie's in San Francisco)
Among older voters, too. (Same as above)
"If there's an ethical issue, seniors take a hike" and abandon politicians they blame, she said. (Only when you are involved Nancy)
"If we hold onto seniors we win the election." (The Seniors remember the way things used to be and they are sick of your crap)

Well Gee, why should we even bother going to the polls? Nancy Pelosi thinks she has this whole thing wrapped up! She will be Speaker of The House (If that doesnt scare the crap out of everybody I dont know what will), she will have Charlie Rangel for the House Way's and Means Committee, who will institute the DRAFT as fast as possible like he tried just before the 2004 election, and she will have John Conyers as Leader of the House Judiciary Committee, who already has Impeachment Papers drawn up for President Bush, so we can be tied up in that nightmare for 2 years! Way to go Nancy! Basically what she is saying is: She is going to make ALOT of promises she cant possibly keep, raise ALL of our taxes, put people OUT of work, SCREW the economy, Cut and Run from the War on Terror, Re-Instate the Draft, and start Impeachment Proceedings on President Bush that will last for YEARS costing all us Taxpayers, Money, and time, NEEDLESSLY because there is Nothing for the President to be Impeached over, and put pretty much a STOP to Congress altogether for the remaining Bush term! Nothing will get DONE! FOR YEARS! And this is all going to be done during the first 100 hours of her becoming speaker, just think what she can screw up during the rest of her term?. Lord have Mercy! Why go to the polls and VOTE? I can think of a handful of reasons Not To, but I can think of a GAZILLION Reason TO GO!

Awesome blog. Just dropping by to say "hello."
The biggest thing I disagree with is minimum wage. I don't feel jobs would be lost over raining minimum wage. Most jobs already pay higher than the federal minimum wage of $5.15. At least they do in my area.
My biggest concern is how much OPEC is cutting production of oil, that is a bigger concern to me than rasing minimum wage in jobs losses.
Trek,

The jobs that would be the first to go are the little Mom and Pop stores that cant afford to pay 10.00 an hour to thier employees, let alone 7.50 or whatever Pelosi is claiming. And they will be the first to go under, and thousands of jobs lost and lots of businesses closed. There are alot of big business that are just getting started that will not be able to handle the overload of an increase that size either, and will be forced to lay off thousands! And they could go under as well, thousands more jobs lost. As well as the Economy in the toilet.
The businesses that can afford to pay more than the minimum wage already do. It isnt fair to force this on a business and have it go under.
The minimum wage should at this moment be left alone, like you said the businesses that can pay more than minimum wage already do.
Pelosi will promise anything to get the House back and the rest of the American people be damned! She knows what an effect this would have on jobs and our economy and and she doesnt doesnt give a rats ass!
As for OPEC, that chaps my hide too. And I am not sure anything can be done about it unless we start boycotting gas again! Unless ALL the Countries that buy thier Oil from OPEC (Which Pretty Much covers EVERYBODY) puts one heck of alot of pressure on them.
We will just have to see how this plays out.
