Thank you, Great Queen Bee, for the gift of a campaign issue for this upcoming election cycle.

I wish someone would shoot her up with so much botox that she wouldn’t be able to talk.

Just another millionaire liberal who is out of touch with the people who make this country work.

Why doesn’t Bush call the congress critters back from their campaign vacations and tell them flat out your not going home until you pass an energy bill.

Calling the congress back sure as hell would not hurt the Republicans running for office as they are supposed to have their butts kicked anyway.

I think it would be a big disadvantage to Democrats to be called back to do the job were paying for them to do.

Instead of drilling, we should use Nancy’s face to scare the oil out of the ground. Of course there would be the hazard of her voice causing the oil to combust. This would be the end of life on Earth as we know it.

Never Mind.

These people work for US. Bring out the debate and vote on it G*d Dam*it!!!!!!

Bush needs to force these bas*tards to stay in session to discuss this.

This is the most DO NOTHING Congress that has been in existence in my existence.

It’s not just the drilling issue. She also won’t allow a vote on Columbian Free Trade agreement, that would bring jobs to us and at the same time support an ally.

Drilling will bring in new jobs.

The democrats are purely political. They’re there to discuss and vote on issues that are brought up by the president and fellow members.

It makes no sense to BLOCK a vote on anything.

What the h*ll is this, a Monarchy? She’s acting like some queen.

Bush’s standing in my eyes would climb 1000% if he did that.

Let’s all pray that he has the courage and the will to do this. He certainly would have our support.

Dear Nancy:

The stupid pills are working nicely.
You can even cut back the dose to one every two hours, if you'd like.

Thank you Nancy for helping to keep The Legacy of the Clinton's alive.

President Bill Clinton veto's legislation the open ANWR to drilling 1996.

I really enjoy paying an extra $2.00 or more per gallon for gasoline I buy! (/sarc)

Pelosi is a raving maniac who will put all of the domestic auto manufacturers out of business. GM posted a $15.5 billion loss today. I wonder what she and the Dems will say to all their union supporters as they line up for the bread lines. What a worthless POS.
