We aren't listening to you and your Republic friends any longer. I'm quite sure that the American public gets it about Pelosi. They know that she did nothing wrong and by constantly criticizing her for doing something that there Republic brethren did just makes them out to be a bunch of whiny kids. If I was a Republic running for office in 2008 I would be very worried. It's going to be a well deserved bloodbath for the Republics. It’s ok Mr. Bush.

Two, it's a problem of the President's reluctance to take responsibility for anything he's done that might have consequences. Three, Pelosi is lying, and the President never said that. Given what is known about the last six years, I think (three) is the least likely by a long shot. I'm going with (two).
