Today, the noble Republican is saving the nation by playing golf.

When last I looked, there is no golf course in the House.

It’s the DEMOCRATS who are on vacation.

Guess you’re having some trouble spinning that one, huh, LGM?

There you are. Sorry about the length. WSJ URLs are always so long

It just like every other “bipartisan” deal these LOTES (R) create, it gives the store away to the Libs. Rush: “It gives Obama and Reid everything they asked for, and more.” & “Obama must be turning cartwheels…”

For example, it adds to the people who must sign off on drilling PETA!

Well Gramnesty is following the “Maveric Model”.

Just like those who warned of LOTE-votes foretold!

We now have empirical data proving the postulate.

It hasn’t been passed, but with the other LOTE (R)s, like Snow, Arlen the Specter, et al who will stop it.

Then, when the House passes any bill, they’ll both be swallowed up in Comittee. Effectively removing the only issue giving the Elephants traction.

All those in the “gang” aren’t up for election this time.

Too bad. Well, just time to vote local, and hope we can hold the joined-at-the-hip two parties from raising taxes to 99%.

Did I mention the bill inflates taxes on oil companies skyhigh?

And for lgm: tax a business, and they build it into the product price.

The Republicans would probably have a much stronger hand to play, if all or at least a majority of Republican congressman were protesting in Washington. As it stands now, you have about a 15-20 there. A more effective stance would be to right a letter to all Republican congressman to join in the fight and come and protest on the House floor.

Conversely, what can you say of the hand that the Democrats have to play, with zero attendance and a House “leader” that squelches debate and votes, when she KNOWS that the majority is against her fine “judgement?”

It is a losing hand, and the polls back that up.

And who was Obama saving when he decided to go shopping or to the gym instead of visiting wounded soldiers at the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center?

Boehner is trying to help the country, while Obama is trying to help himself.

BTW folks…..
3 PAGES of comments on the WaPo site after Nancy Pelosi’s interview.

Only 1 (count ‘em) comment in support of her work thus far……

All the other commenters ripped her a new one on this topic.

You actually read through the comments for a Washington ComPost article? You’re far braver than I. *nightmares of barking moonbattery*

Let’s do hypothetical: If all the Republican’s did show up, what would your excuse for Pelosi be?

These ‘players’ are giving me back a bit of trust and pride in the GOP.

Where are the rest of them?? Still sleeping?

GO MEN GO – sleep boys sleep

Lets remember who is who.
