   I’ll say that again.. unless the Republicans come back Monday morning.

   I despise Pelosi – apparently a 5 week holiday spent promoting her POS book is more important to the treasonous old bat than this country is.

    The Left brags about its savviness with technology, but forgot about those pesky things like BlackBerries, Twitter, Qik, and cell phone cameras. Such astounding new technology! Wonder how quickly they’ll try to ban it in their next session.

    The networks that brag about all their “exclusives” and “scoops” should be demanding that the cameras never be turned off when there’s history in the making.

    Make no bones about it – this isn’t going to sit well with the majority of Americans who think Congress needs to act on lowering gas prices. And that’s not just for our cars, folks, but also powering and heating our homes.

    I suppose if you live in Arizona or Hawaii, you don’t care about heating bills. But – as a Wisconsinite – I can tell you my choices are freeze to death or pay ever-increasing costs to keep my apartment warm.

    I’m confident McCain will chime in as soon as Bush does . . .

    Am I correct (someone yell at me if I’m not) that only 20% of the Republicans are involved in this? Where are the other 80%? They can’t be making deals with democrats this time because there are none around. What are these RINOs doing?

    Every Republican who is not at the House should hear, loudly and clearly and obscenely, what their constituency thinks of them. Forget the democrats (remember “Blue Dog” dems? Ooooh, they were “conservative” and oh so scary to the House leadership). Focus only on the Republicans.

    (Okay, easy for me to say since I live in Washington State and there are hardly any Republicans left.)

    Howdy everyone! Have had a rather busy week with few chances to pitch in and get some frustrations off my chest. Watching this revolt by the few Congressmen with the stones to stand up to the Wicked Witch of the West has been wonderful. I called Congressman Sali’s office in Kuna, ID to thank him for his refusal to leave his post and try to do anything about the cost of energy, which is strangling this mostly agricultural state. He just sent me an e-mail asking if President Bush should call Congress back into session and of course the wife and I responded YES! We can’t afford to take a vacation so why should Congress be able to.

The idea to put limits on oil speculators is great, if Europe and Asia fall off the globe. Taking oil from the Strategic Reserve is like cleaning the change from your couch cushions, rather than getting a job. No new sources, just draining the little you have left.
