There is not such thing as “cooperation” concerning the powers of the Commander in Chief. You either have the power or you do not have the power.

We have exactly one of those and you are not it, Nan.

lengthened deployments

That's right Nancy, take it out of context. This was a good thing, as in exchange for the lengthened deployments the troops get a guaranteed year back home between them.

I know soldiers who have been out eight months, back three months, out a year, back six months, etc. As soon as they get home they're paranoid about when they'll get shipped off again. It's played hell on their families, and this policy will stop that.

Nancy Pelosi press releases are the best reads ever! Every one of them is inane. President Bush has refused to pay for the war responsibly? Who passes the funding, Madam Speaker? If it has not been paid for responsibly, you and your colleagues are to blame. Is it responsible to fund the war by adding billions of dollars of pork to the funding bill?

Her other release today was on student loan reform where she accidentally calls college officials corrupt. Bet that goes over well with the Berkeley crowd.

There’s no war, foreign or domestic, that Pelosi and her ignorant band of liberal cohorts, could ever have any chance of winning.

They are cowards and losers, and might I add, traitors.

She will continue to fund the troops until she can figure out a way to 100% nail the consequences of withdrawal on Bush and/or the Iraqi government. She doesn't want that on her head. Until then she'll just keep blabbing.

Childish would have been my response in President Bush’s place: vetoing every bill from the beginning of this Congress until I had a valid funding bill on my desk to sign.

cooperation to Pelosi is “Do as I say” Funny; she ranted about Tom Delay being the “Hammer” In my view she is more of a hard nose, her name should be “Sledge”.

Our bill will fully fund the troops, honor our commitment to our veterans, hold the Iraqi government accountable and end the war. The President’s only response to our good faith efforts is another veto threat.

Good faith my eye. The only faith Comrade Pelosi understands is moonbat worship at the alter of Soros.

Pelosi's description of the stupid Dem no-funding bill reminds me of the very old joke..

A group of 3rd grade girls are playing in the schoolyard and the find a dollar bill ( hey..I said it was an OLD joke)..They're trying to decide what to do with it..buy ice cream, or a soda, or a comic book, when all of a sudden one of the girls says "I know what to do"..and grabs the dollar and runs off. she comes back 30 mi nutes later with a package of Tampax.. "Why did you buy this?" her friends ask her..:"What can we do with it?' "Everything" she replies.."we can go swimming, horseback riding, play tennis.."

I Googled Pelosi’s spokeswoman Nadeam Elshami and found some interesting facts: She once worked for Democratic Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky (where she was a sharp critic of the war on drugs), then for Democratic Senator Dick Durbin, and now Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Based on the articles I read there, she makes Dennis Kucinich look like Barry Goldwater. I take it from her name that she is of Arabic descent, which is interesting, being a top aide and confidant of “the most powerful woman in the world.” Wonder who’s idea it was to parlay with Assad and possibly the Iranians? Hmmmmmm
