Speaker of the House Elephant: Nancy Pelosi for President



... the plot thickens in Washington politics, trusty hero Dennis Kucinich takes on Congressional leader's resistence to impeachment.

Boi-oi-oi-ng moment! Myself a working woman of the same generation as Speaker Pelosi, politically active, really-really for Hillary, suffering from a cracked skull, hitting the ceiling over and over (FYI: it ain't glass in my world... it's cement... they don't even see us technical, operations, HR or other middle managers) here it is... the one sure way to guarantee a Democratic sweep come November is for the Speaker to do exactly what she is doing.. stay cool, resist,and accept an order to impeach only if you are forced. Come to think of it, when Bush and Cheney choose to resign before they are impeached, when the people continue to demand truth returns to the front page, then a boomer woman becomes the first female President of the US of A!!!

Women need this moment... all of us still earning .77 cents on the dollar, working twice as hard as the guys (you know it), the big bulge at the bottom of the food chain, putting up with this for what? Women need this shot in the arm... that justice is served, the we are protected by our government, that our children learn the correct lessons. My God is smiling, and she has a terrific sense of play. No politics, no drama, just a women showing up on the clean up committee after the frat party. Hee!

Maybe, for just one "bright, shining moment" a woman leads as an honorable, interim President. And another great moment when President Obama takes his oath in 2009, as the torch is passed to a new generation of Americans, asking not what their country can do for them, but "Oh boy, what we can do for the planet!"

PARTY TO THE PEOPLE.

Compromise This Elephant: Democratics Cave on FISA



Dear Democratic Party Leaders,
What are you on? It appears that the huge voter turnout and resulting media attention during the primaries has gone straight to your heads. You still don't get that voters showing up in large numbers is the real movement here, that we are not some cult of "Obama" personality. The PARTY belongs to the people, folks, and the people are really pissed at the Party leadership in Congress.

Obama's "we'll get 'em later" cop-out regarding a FISA "compromise" is exactly why the Democrats are losing respect. On this vote, 60 senators had yet to be briefed on exactly what the FISA immunity compromise meant. Remember, these are the same folks who's job is, at the least, to read the bloody legislation before they vote. None of us regulars could get away with such gross negligence at our jobs. No wonder we are in so much trouble here... it took years and years of many people missing on the votes, and uninformed decision-making at the top for us to be this broke, this violated, this abused, not just the Bush administration.

The electorate is watching closely, and ready to fire any/all politicians who phony-up. The FISA vote was monumental... and the people feel shut down. How can Congress sleep at night?

Big Brother is here, and we are it!
