If Pukelosi said this.. "When the music stops, you should try listening to the American people."... She ought take her own advice.
You know, I was considering top-commenting about how much I love Nancy. I have been in love with her ever since she accepted the nomination surrounded by her children. What a doll!
I was also thinking that anybody who hates Nancy Pelosi would pretty much have to be a total dick. I mean, that's just what I was thinking. It doesn't mean it's true. One guy in Oklahoma called her a commie. It's so fucking ridiculous, you would think it would be tongue-in-cheek. But conservatives can be very surprising. My uncle honestly believed that Nancy and Barack were out to suck up every available dollar in taxes. At least he thought it was very funny to say so. Pukelosi? What's that supposed to mean? I thought you were a grown-up. I don't run around posting about Newt Grill-Grease. The big fat hypocritical slob.
I'm starting to get why the republicans are so hot on destroying Medicare. It's not that there is a big, huge pie that they can't wait to get their dirty paws on. It's because there is no limit on the amount of taxable income that pays the Medicare portion of F.I.C.A. taxes. That's 6.2% off of every million dollars. Sixty-two thousand dollars. That's enough to buy a nice car. Highway robbery!!! They can't wait to kill it, the heartless bastards.
But yeah. It's a fucking hilarious open letter. Rock on Nancy. Wonderful American queen.
If republicans listened to the American people rather than to American money, they would be singing a very different song.
How is it conservatives can embrace the utter nonsense coming out of a Palin or a Bachmann but despise an intelligent woman like Pelosi. Just more of that jealousy I guess. We on the left know how lucky we are to have the highly intelligent women on our side of the isle... from Pelosi to Debbie Wassermann-Schultz! Super stars, not shrinking violets!
Great comment FJ, and Jerry, Repubs don't care about the little people, it becomes more obvious every single day.
RN, what has Nancy ignored from the people?
The Greedy Old Poops hate women in general, smart or dumb. That's why they let boobs like Palin and Bachmann carry their banner forth, even though this all male club has no intention of letting them actually run for president.
Smart women such as Pelosi and Hillary Clinton threaten their sense of male dominance, causing their family jewels to shrink to the size of soft kernels of white rice.
Hey... I heard that HuckleBerry is NOT running.... is that,like, for this week... or is it for NEXT week too?
Pelosi... ehhh.... most republicans did not like her for the same reason they like Palin.... she's a woman... gotta love them conservatives... they are consistent.
"...they let boobs like Palin and Bachmann..."
Men have always had an interest in boobs.
So.... is Anne Coulter a boob.... or just a woman with an extremely thin intellect?
"So.... is Anne Coulter a boob.... or just a woman with an extremely thin intellect?"
In the words of Austin Powers:"SHE'S A MAN, BABY!!!"
I got a song for Batshit-crazy Bachmann, it's by Cee Lo Green. Anyone care to guess what it is?
Funny how guys can zero in on boobs but not little kernals of white rice. ;()
TN... you are wrong!! I focus on little bits a rice alza time! With gumbo..or tomato soup... or even just as a side!!!!
My fascination with boobs has long since been superseded by a good joke and a hearty, "Heigh HO Silver"
You enjoy showing your ass, Lisa?
Hmmmm,unemployment over 9%,crushing federal debt,gas at five bucks a gallon,housing market in the shitter,new home starts down 10% in April.....holy christ,this is Jimmy Carter territory.
what ever Rusty. Ya know we on the left are so tired of having to remind you on the right why the country got to where we are. Now you can go back to Reagan, or just back to Dubya that hideous Shrub, you should be able to see it takes time to come out of the depression the Shrub got us into all by his itty bitty self. A slow but steady uphill climb is where our country is now, and if the thugs stop obstructing every move the dems make the climb would go faster. But alas, the rightwingers don't want progress because that would look good for our side in the next election. Problem for you is the country is on to your games and you are gonna be the huge losers in 2012. Look all around you, the left is organized and poised for the fight of the century. Our future depends on the demise of the Reichwing!!
Hey Sue,you people said the same thing last Nov..Hows that going?
Obie had better have the SEAL's pop some one every month....its the economy stupid.
Hows the weather in OZ today Sue?
yup, it's the economy stupid, and the righties think we're stupid enough to put the fuckers who destroyed it back in to destroy the progress Obama has made these past few years!! Fuckin hilarious!!
You are right, Sue, it is all about the economy. What happen to the right's chant about jobs, jobs, jobs, before the last election. What have they done about jobs? I'll tell you. NOTHING. In fact, they are doing their best to crash the economy.
Too bad, that effort is going to be another right-wing failure!
Is there a magical date that the mess America's economy is in becomes Obie's responsibility?
Does gas prices more then doubling since he took office refect on Obie at all? You leftys used to blame Bush whenever gas prices rose,would'nt it be fair to blame Obie?
Does over 9% unemployment reflect on Obie? Hmmm,over 14 million Americans out of work...not Obies problem.
Sue,what exactly is the progress Obie has made?
And yes,you and Jerry are absolutly correct....it is all about the economy.Americans are fully aware who's at the wheel.They showed that last Nov..
bull shit on last November elections. All we're hearing now is voter regrets on bringing in those hideous Nazi governors and the House teabaggers. They'll all be gone next go round. The young and the minorities vote in big numbers for dems but also get very lazy in mid term elections. That's the reason the right made gains, NOT because the country was mad at the dems. Dream on brother!
thanks for the help Jerry!
You libs never cease to amaze,trying to make custard out of mustard....you should be ashamed of yourself,you seemed to be a bit smarter.
It seems you have selected memory....the house was completly over turned and the senate would have been lost if we had'nt run those two idiots in NV and Del.,and what is it now...about 60% of the states have Republican govs.Most political pundits do predict you guys losing the senate next year because there are so many dems up for re-election.If Obie does win would'nt it be good fun to see him deal with the Republicans holding both houses.
Oh yea Sue,you were spot on when you said the dem young and minorities were lazy....I agree 100% with you on that point.
You know what, Rusty? You have commented 5 times on this post, and the best you can do is say
"its [sic] the economy stupid". That's a 2010 comment.
Well, let's hear some ideas about what we should be doing, or just shut the fuck up and go troll somewhere else!
Jerry,Jerry such anger from a kumbaya lib,tisk tisk.
Are'nt many corrective ideas flowing from you or your ilk,other then tax the rich.So you sir should take you own advice and STFU.
So now we have number 6, and still nothing but troll comments. Thanks for confirming what I said, Rusty.
Jerry,are you tying a knot in a string every time I comment and then have someone else count the knots?
there is not enough room or time in the day to type all Obamas accomplishments. There is not room to type all the Dems proposals to put people back to work in good paying jobs which will also rebuild our crumbling nation..BUT..It's the fucking greedy selfish hypocritical idiot republiscums who are stopping the progress and giving their ONE and ONLY ONE suggestion for growth and that is cuttaxesfortherichbastards and the economy will miraculously grow! BWAHaaaaahaaaaaaahaaaaa.
Buh Bye R, you have nothing more of interest to say
I see what you mean about Rusty Sue... "Obie" has had TWO YEARS already... plenty of time to clean up the mess cause by GBW and the Republicans. After all, the Republicans only crashed the economy and threw us into a deep recession. We SHOULD put them back in charge because "Obie" isn't fixing things fast enough... not.
Also, according to Rusty, minorities are lazy (no doubt he means Hispanic people). As I pointed out on Will's blog... "Obie" equals "boy", and conservative equals racist. Not all of them, but that certainly does seem to be the case with our friend Rusty.
His latest complaint (on Will's blog) concerned "thug" ball (he was referring to basketball).
UGH, I deleted his last moronic comment, he's just a lameass troll out to cause trouble.(he just likes it when I say the F word :-)
