He looks like he wants to be Harry Potter and attack himself to the Potter success. I hope Connie Rice starts reading the books to George. I will not say how it ends.

Diane Watson has stated ON TAPE, on Oct. 14th 2007, Pelosi’s real reasons for not pressing forward on impeachment! She says they (the other democrats in the House) have the evidence to support impeachment and the desire to do so, but that their “leader” has a different plan! “Now, our leader has looked at this issue, and her strategy is, our speaker, is be sure we take the White House and that we win 60 (more) seats” At best this is the politicizing of the impeachment proceedings and at worst it is her own desire to remain Speaker of the House! As our soldiers place their very lives on the line in an illegal war, and as this administration beats the drums for another war with Syria or Iran, Pelosi is content to let it all happen, so they can regain control of the House in 2008 and she can retain the Speakership! Watch for yourself and please get the video out to as many people as possible. Pelosi must be removed! watch it HERE! http://willyloman.wordpress.com/ 2007/ 10/ 21/ watson-lays-out-pelosis-reason-to-suppress-impeachment/ Rep.
