From the Chairman and his Kin!!
Posted on 12/14/2006 4:30:43 AM PST by Chairman_December_19th_Society
As we settle into the nighttime of dispair, fret not, for the Sun will rise again!!
Good morning!!
We, here, will never forget those who died on September 11, 2001, as we seek to protect the Republic from all who will do her harm!!
In an exclusive interview with Nancy Pelosi, incoming Speaker of the House of Representatives, her detailed plans for the 110th Congress took place. She even let on some of the plans of her counterpart in the Senate, incoming Majority Leader Senator Reid.
When asked what her main priority would be, Pelosi indicated it was important that the American people regain trust in their National legislature. Asked how she would do this, she said, "Simple--Senator Reid and I agreed that we would sponsor one, and only one, resolution. We will introduce this resolution on the first day of the 110th Congress. That resolution will call for the immediate adjournment, sine die of the Congress."
Asked to elaborate, Ms. Pelosi pointed out that it was important the American people see their legislators at their best, and working for the American people. It was important, therefore, that the "American people be assured that we not allow any corruption, even in our own party, be allowed to be in positions where they might actually speak to the American people.
"Take a look--there's Mr. Jefferson. He's back. Mr. Cold Cash. We know he took the bribes, we just need to keep him away from the American people.
"Then Senator Reid reminded me about Senator Byrd and his Klan connections. Can't be putting that in the newspapers and expect to show we're serious about ending corruption, no sirree.
"Then there's Alcee Hastings, an impeached judge don't you know..."
"But Ms. Pelosi, didn't you vote to impeach him?"
"Yes, yes, I did. Let me talk about that. You see it was the intent of the voters, after all the votes had been counted for Mr. Hastings--did I say that? I meant after all the votes that had been cast had been counted for Mr. Hastings. No, wait, his votes and the votes of his opponent, where appropriate, counted for Mr. Hastings--yes, that's it--that he be returned to his seat. But that doesn't mean we have to put him near a microphone.
"Then I have my chairman of the Intelligence Committee. What a bonehead. We worked on him for hours. 'It's Sunni, it's Sunni, it's Sunni--his reply?' He said, 'Yes, it's sunny outside.'
"Then I have Mr. Hoyer, my Majority Leader. It's just rumors about all those sweetheart land deals he had in Maryland. But we have to watch those appearances of impropriety, after all. Appearances are important--is my makeup all right. I don't have too much, do you think?
"This, of course, prompted Senator Reid to remind me that there was no truth to the allegations surrounding his own real estate dealings. 'The people of Nevada have a right,' he told me, 'to know that their Senator is not a crook.'"
The interview then turned to matters of fiscal policy. Ms. Pelosi indicated she was "determined to see to it that her party reigned in profligate spending. We need to make sure the taxpayer dollars are spent wisely.
"We will work to ensure Henry Waxman introduces no meausres that cost only a little in the beginning but burgeon to enormous amounts in the out-years.
"We will make sure we don't overtax Americans--that is a solid position for the 110th Congress. You heard it here. Read my lips--wait, you can't? We'll increase literacy spending. Did I say that?
The subject turned to Impeachment of President Bush. Ms. Pelosi assured us that "John Conyers will not be allowed to introduce any resolution seeking Impeachment of the President. I just won't allow it. I am in charge after all--never mind that little slip up with the Majority Leader position. That was just to allow the other elements in my party to think they had a chance. Yeah, that's it. That's the message, the image I want to carry forward. Is my makeup all right for that?
"So you see, we will accomplish great things for the American people. That is our goal. Mr. Reid and I sat down for great length to come up with our strategy for the 110th Congress. We decided the best way forward was for our Representatives and Senators to actually get to know their people. It would serve the double purpose of allowing me to keep my promises of fiscal restraint, integrity, and non-Impeachment.
"We'll just go home. No Congress.
And the interview was concluded...
"And I would like to wish say a supreme being, not necessarily a deity but an icon of ones own choosing, only if one chooses to acknowledge icons, religious or otherwise, bless, or not depending upon your desires, this nation, or collection of people, usually, but not required to be, referred to as the United States of America."
"Say Good Night, Nancy."
"Good Night, Nancy. By the way, is my makeup still all right?"
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.

Well, Guennie, if you'd drink straight OJ in the morning, instead of lacing it with vodka, you probably wouldn't have spilled it!! ;>)
*stepping up to the plate to make Dog's comment for him since he appears to be AWOL*
Your reply looks like mine does, before my first cup of coffee.
And for what it's worth, I'd suggest a new keyboard ASAP
There is no way you're going to get OJ out from under the keys.
As soon as it dries, you are going to be in dire straights.
Ev did this last week.
It's either that or a new keyboard imho.
Gotta scoot..........bbl.
p.s. When i first saw your post I thought you were typing in some kind of Scottish dialect or something.....LOL!
I am afraid Iowa Granny is right. I had to replace one after my daughter spilled a coke on it. Even if you get it dried out, the keys will probably stick.
