Shoot, throw in an extra billion for him for good measure for all he's done. The worst part is that Haliburton is probably getting Dummy W’s gold plated palace ready for him in Dubai right now.

Thats not how our system of compromise works.Other than DENYING passage of legislation,through filibuster or mandatory readings of documents it's all a pipedream.In Maine right now we have a hoard of candidates promising the moon (of course we all know what a powerhouse the Maine congressional delegation is)- that said, Pelooser's an ass if for no other reason than taking impeachment off the table right from the gitgo.

Good work getting in today’s talking point.

In an attempt “to tie Democrats to high gas prices,” House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) is urging Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to bring global warming legislation to the floor “as soon as possible.” GOP leaders are calling the legislation a “cap-and-tax” plan.

Do you get paid by the word or by the lie? Just curious.

And if you weren’t so fu(king stupid, you’d have waited a day or two.

Dumb. Sh!t.

I searched and the closest I could find to an actual promise to lower fuel prices in 2006 was a promise to implement a "commonsense plan" to lower prices. I guess you could hear that and assume it's a promise to lower gas prices if you have a limited imagination and a partisan axe to grind, but that's probably not you, right? You have a link to a report that quotes Nancy Pelosi saying "if elected, I will lower gas prices" or something to that effect. I'm anxious to see it. Thanks.

From a high-water mark of 91% approval in the immediate wake of a national trauma, to a current low of 25%, no president has fallen so far, and it's likely none ever will. Good point.

I don't think we'll ever see a 90% job approval for congress, but who knows. Maybe if they all quit.

Pretty sick. But as usual bush is planning another scare tactic, always worked before, just to help McCain. Seymour Hersch quoted as saying bush wants to invade Iran to help McCains campaign. So what if we lose more soldiers, they are only a number, say Tony Snow. 4090 and counting.. rogers when are you enlisting ? 25% is being generous, even bush admitted his audiences had to be prompted to applaud.
