Democrats declaring victory while blaiming Republicans

What else is new?

[Sleeping Beauty]

Good Grief: John Boehner is crying.

[bnelson44]

John Boehner broke down crying on the floor

[bnelson44]

Any idea why?

[bnelson44]

Pelosi up

[Sleeping Beauty]

It was so sudden.

He broke up when he started talking about the terrorists and (I think) the number who have died either fighting them or in the WTC. I couldn’t tell which.

Ed Muskie is back, and this time, he’s got a really good tan.

[bnelson44]

talking about Iraq is a civil war

[bnelson44]

She sounds like she has no idea what she is talking about

[Bahbah]

She sounds like she has no idea what she is talking about

That's because she doesn't. She has got to be the shallowest, dumbest person ever to be Speaker.

[bnelson44]

$40????

[Sleeping Beauty]

Meanwhile, over in the Senate I thought Kennedy’s head was going to explode when he started shouting about why this bill is not amnesty — like in 1986.

[Sleeping Beauty]

I could never understand the $40.

[bnelson44]

I thought she got the number wrong, but she was serious. Is she really that out of touch?

[bnelson44]

Voting

[tobyhill]

Give the Rats the pork now but when the general budget bill arrives at the President’s desk he should veto it until $20 billion is slashed from it.

[Sleeping Beauty]

Uh oh. The public is furious with the Democrats.

[bnelson44]
