This has been a long-time coming. What is shocking is the firm, stubborn positions some prominent Democrats have taken, only to completely flip-flop.

The Price of Oil has dropped again yesterday, to 118.60 as speculators backed away – coinciding (coincidentally) with the third day of protest by House Republicans. The House was called into recess last week for a five week vacation by Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

When the liberal Democrats won control of the House and Senate in 2006, Bug-eyes (aka Nancy Pelosi) promised the most ethical Congress ever. She stood before the American people and proclaimed that the days of earmarks (pork projects) were over. That the corrupt days of Republican rule were over, and she would run the House with full transparency so Americans would have faith again in their Congress.
One year later, and liberal Democrats are about as far from those predictions as they can possibly get. Under Bug-eyes leadership, the Democrats have gotten essentially nothing done. They have essentially wasted the taxpayer’s dollars all year long, attempting to hijack the role of Commander and Chief, while they tried their hardest to lose the war on terror.

Joe Lieberman of Connecticut gave a speech that hits at the very core of America's greatest security risk."For many Democrats, the guiding conviction in foreign policy isn't pacifism or isolationism, it is distrust and disdain of Republicans in general, and President Bush in particular," he said.He also spoke about the dangers of Democratic leaders bowing to the unrealistic antics of the far left.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently swore that she would push for a vote on a resolution to officially declare that Turkey committed genocide in World War I. However when show time rolled around, it appears that she may have developed a massive case of stage fright.According to news reports, Pelosi's plans to push the vote faltered when even her closest supporters within the Demcoratic Party including John Murtha (D-PA) began to pull their support.Murtha opposed the measure and admitted to Pelosi's misjudgment. He expressed the view that the United States doesn't have any "damn allies" and therefore needs to keep Turkey on its side. When counting up the opposition to the bill, Murtha questioned the point of taking the bill forward.Turkey has admitted that Armenians were killed a century ago by Ottoman Turks but said that number of deaths have been grossly exaggerated. It maintains that the action occurred due to civil unrest and was not a calculated act of genocide. They viewed the me
I can’t believe I am going to say this, but here goes. Nancy Pelosi has finally said something I agree with. God, I feel dirty now, I think I will take a shower after this post.
Today Nancy Pelosi condemned Rep. Stark for saying the president was amused by soldiers getting their heads blown off. You can see the video here.
“While members of Congress are passionate about their views, what Congressman Stark said during the debate was inappropriate and distracted from the seriousness of the subject at hand—providing health care for America’s children,” Pelosi said.
She really agrees with what Rep.Stark said, however the congress’ dismal approval ratings coupled with her lack of leadership and failure to get anything accomplished has her on the defensive. She made a tactical move here to try and boost her approval ratings. If congress had even gotten one bill signed by the president she may have taken the offensive here and defended Stark for his righ
What did we do as a nation to deserve Nancy Pelosi?Really. Have we not suffered enough during the last 7 seven years?For every complaint launched against President Bush, Nancy Pelosi has placed herself firmly in line to receive the same. For every short sighted ill- thought out plan of action offered up by Bush, Pelosi is second only in title.Was disrupting the now non-existent Ottoman Empire a major policy issue in '06?Pelosi's amateur and dangerous efforts to end the War in Iraq by disrupting our relationship with a major ally in the Middle East during a time of war in the same region is both breathtakingly asinine and counterproductive.Is the Democratic led congress so desperate and void of political acumen that it has resorted to gnawing off its own leg?The Dems can't end the war but they seem to think that they can corner the White House into withdrawing troops from Iraq through blackmail. The consequence of not heeding to her request to withdraw troops -- sabotage a relatio
Nancy Pelosi needs to resign from Speaker of the House immediately, and be drug tested. Just as we predicted, after the recent resolution in Congress to recognize the Armenian genocide committed by the Ottoman Empire in WWI, Turkey has moved its troops to the northern boarder of Iraq, and is waiting for governmental permission to attack the Kurds. When another genocide takes place, the Kurds can thank the idiot liberals in Washington, D.C.Condoleezza Rice, while in Russia, urged Turkey not to take any further action. But, apparently we have no clout anymore with Turkey because of our meaningless resolution. This is just another reason why the Democrats cannot be trusted with our foreign policy. These ignoramuses must be stopped.Related EditorialsEvery Congressional Democrat Needs to Be Drug Tested: Congress Pushes Resolution Recognizing Armenian Genocide Committed by the Ottoman Empire in WWIHow the Democrats Lost the 2008 Election in Three Weeks: From Moveon.org, to Liberals Sid
It must be a great day to be Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives. She is a Demoncrat. The could not get the sufficient amount of votes and support to bring the boys home from Iraq, so what a better way to do it then to alienate one of the biggest partners in the war! The Turkish people are all mad as hell at the USA and protesting to their government. WAY TO GO YOU IGNORANT WOMAN!! Who really gives a big rats ass about a war that took place nearly 100 years ago in a country that was none of our concern. I mean genocide was thought to be bad for many years before that, Hitler tried to do it and was stopped. It was generaly recogonized that it was bad after him, but Israel did it many thousands of years before this little war took place in Turkey and we do not condemn them.Armenian Genocide"The Armenian Genocide (Armenian: Հայոց Ցեղասպանութիւն ("Hayoc' c'ejaspanut'iwn"), Turkish: Ermeni Soykırımı) — also known as the Armenian Holocau
It has clearly become a liberal requirement to be an abject hypocrite. Three stories today have demonstrated that liberal elitists certainly have chutzpah. Situations like these are getting to be ridiculous.Jimmy Carter, objectively one of the top-five worst Presidents of the United States, just called Dick Cheney a “Disaster” and a “Militant.” Who did he say this to? He said it to the BBC. Why did he do this? Because of course right now we need ex-Presidents traveling the World finding new ways to convince people to hate America. Do not forget, according to Jimmy Carter, Yasser Arafat was one to be admired for stealing and laundering billions of dollars from the Palestinians while simultaneously encouraging them to be suicide bombers and kill children.Jimmy Carter even had the nerve to suggest that Dick Cheney has been on the wrong side of the debate on many issues. Keep in mind that this is all coming from Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter was utterly embarrassed by Iran, cr
