"Do you have any parting words for the current administration?"

Speaker Pelosi said, "I have some, and I think I will share them with the President privately."

I hope President Bush has some parting words for Queen Nancy. Or perhaps Dick Cheney might be able to express them better.

... along with the long knife into the lower back, inserted with a botox-fueled twist.

Nah... She is going to tell him that he got screwed by the media.

Bush isn’t an idiot. He knows how the game works in Washington.

Democrats always think it’s about them.

“I hope President Bush has some parting words for Queen Nancy.’
I believe Bush will have two words for her: One a verb the other a pronoun.

Pelosi is the highest ranking valley girl in America. Empty headed and wrong is a sad way to live one’s life.

Why not refer to the afflicted, like Pelosi Galore as having a mental illness known as “Global Warming Syndrome”.

What I find amazing about DC, it’s just all politics to them. Bush will sit down with Pelosi and her rich husband and yuck it up and talk about the last 8 years. Rich politicians are rich politicians.....period.

I don't think she'll tell him any such thing since she benefitted from that screwing.

I know Bush knows how the game works and he doesn't need Pelosi to tell him anything about the media. She will give him some crap pep speech and carefully say he "did the best he could" or somesuch nonsense.

I seriously doubt Bush will take a private call from her. Why would he?

I agree. To them it's not personal, ‘it's just business’, but because of the structure of the system they have significant impact on our lives. It's a club that maintains it's exclusivity and stature on the basis of the egos of the members and the complicit fawning of the media. The media elevates their own stature by elevating the stature of those they cover. It's a positive feedback loop with negative implications for the society both are supposed to be serving.

Hey there Badeye, my good friend. Hope you are well.

Because President Bush has an elegance about him that has nearly always been overlooked.

"To them it's not personal, ‘it's just business’,"

I don't think so. I think it might have been that way 20 or 30 years ago; when the politicians actually socialized with one another. But now, I do think it is much more personal.

We've all heard the stories about how Reagan and Tip O'Neil use to battle 'til blood in front of the cameras, and then would share a drink in the Oval Office or even the private residence. Nancy Pelosi hasn't been to the private residence since Bush was elected - she may not have even of been in the Oval office.

I've got my problems with Bush, most coming the last 12 months. But, I do think he thought he was going to change the tenor in DC. His only frame of reference was during his old man's tenure in DC - at CIA, VP and Pres - things were different then. He seemed shell shock by the vitriol and the personal Ad Hominem attacks and I don't believe he has ever recovered.
