Bush's taking approval ratings killed the GOP in 06, yet they seem happy to ride him off a cliff again in '08. Hey, I'm just a simple engineer; what do I know. I gave up politics more than 10 years ago. Pelosi is a home town girl (she's a D'Alessandro, the daughter of the late Baltimore mayor, Tommy D'Alesandro, Jr.); but that's not enough for me to forgive her inaction. Her statement and position that "impeachment is off the table" has infuriated the D base that put her in the Speaker's chair. I truly have no idea WTF; but the more I look into it, the more frustrated I get with the whole pantload of 'em. Kerry, well, whatever he did didn't happen while he was in office, so that part's a non-starter. Joe F. |

With recent resignations & deaths, the current breakdown D/ R is 231/198. Were you subtracting the DINOs? Joe F. |

Never wondered why. You ever wonder why you have to settle for the stale leavings of kennie's feeble attempts at insults? and couldn't keep those shiney new nickles in your pocket at the playground? Didn't have any shiny new nickels in my pockets at any playground. Any nickels I got in my playground years were traded for various goods (some of which still claim bits of my income) at any number of local mom and pop stores that littered the landscape of those days like a minefield for any kid armed with a few coins to unload. Those bullies did a tap dance on you I've only had real trouble with one bully in my life. That was a long time ago, and it had nothing to do with small change that was too hot for me to hold onto anyway. Meanwhile, I've been tapped a few times, but never danced on. and now you're mad at the world. Nah, the world is mad at me. Well, the little bits of it here that seem to think there really is something wrong with finding amusement in the pitiful squeakings of a truly pathetic, homicidal, self-loathing old fat man with a bad perm, anyway. Davie (who hasn't been around Wolfie in a few years, but the last time he was found him smelling like a binjo ditch) Ooh! Ooh! Sailor talk! You make me SO wet! Wolfgang and never forget, you're absolutely right........you wasted your one and only shot at life. ![]() |

Bottom line for me? Bottom line? We've had enough innuendo and unsubstantiated smear. What statement in that transcript is a lie, and what evidence do you have to prove your assertion? Joe F. |

Nah, just had a cramp between brain and fingers - I was going to say the Ds had only a few more than the 218 seats that delineates a majority. And that would be including the DINOs. Bottom line, as we've seen for the last year, the Rs still have the numbers to make sure *nothing* gets done in either arm of Congress, and they've been doing that job quite well. It is clear that an impeachment attempt of Bush and Cheney - no matter how richly deserved - could never get off square one... /daytripper |

I know exactly what he meant because he described it in detail during an interview with Larry King. Well, just for fun, let's assume you understood what he said in his explanation of what he said earlier. So, if you needed an explanation then it is clear that you didn't understand what he said in the first place. And if you didn't understand what he said in the first place, the assumption we started with above is clearly in jeopardy, ainna? Wolfgang the boy just WILL NOT learn. |
