House Democratic leaders and protesters waving McCain signs had a war of words Tuesday at a press event outside an old train station. The demonstrators interrupted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with chants of “Drill here! Drill now!”
Pelosi paused and asked the group, “Right here?”
Seeming to enjoy the back and forth, she followed with another question: “Can we drill your brains?”
She went on to refer to the protesters, who continued to chant sporadically, as “handmaidens of Big Oil.” Arguing that increased offshore drilling would reduce gas prices by only a couple of pennies a decade from now, she referred to the demonstrators as the “2-cents-in-10-years-crowd.”
Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer swiped at the demonstrators, too, saying that “sophomoric chanting” won’t solve the energy crisis and that “all thinking Americans know” — stressing the word "thinking" and looking at the crowd — that America doesn’t have a quarter of the word’s fossil fuels yet uses a quarter of the world’s energy.
At least the Queen acknowledges that the Protesters have brains to drill — if we drilled Pelousy’s brain, we’d find a dry well.
...AND A NASTY IGNORAMOUS...
Support the GOP candidate running against Pelosi:
DANA Walsh for Congress!

from a common sense viewpoint:
what does the country have to lose from doing both,
the democrats’ new energies
and the republicans’ drill oil?
it’s a win, win!
“There you go again, Nancy! Always willing to drill ONLY where there is no oil!”
This video needs to be put in an ad and run heavily.
’ Arguing that increased offshore drilling would reduce gas prices by only a couple of pennies a decade from now,’
These people seem to not notice that if you never drill, you never get any benefit.
NO BELA PELOSI, YOU MAY NOT DRILL MY BRAIN. Do I look like a partially delivered infant to you?!!!
And Pelousy gives the RNC yet another tasty soundbite for its commercials for the House candidates.
“Polling data indicates that over 60% of Americans believe that we should search for and drill for oil within our own borders and along the Continetal Shelf.”
“Nancy Pelosi has something to say to these Americans:”
[insert Harpy screeching “can we drill your brains?”]
“This message is brought to you by the Republican Party. Vote Republican. The only way to stop Nancy Pelosi.”
Ahhh so 75% of Americans that support drilling in the good ole USA are not thinking....Hoyer has just told that 75% to F offf!!!
Dear RNC:
Please amend 60% in above commercial idea to “75%.” Cuz I like Fred’s statistics better than mine.
Demagogues should be very careful not to "dis" anyone's "sophomoric chanting" because that is all that the Demagogues know how to do, and they do a lot of it at their conventions...... btw, I read that John Edwards' mistress is into chanting...... apparently that is a popular "New Age" activity. Democrats love to chant so long as it is their own favorite words forming the "sophomoric" chanting......
Dang!! I really like this.
SOMEBODY needs to do this. It’s actually VERY good.
;-)
we could drill her head but we would strike BOTOX!
Amen!!!
I don’t believe she is an ignoramus - I believe she is intellectually and emotionally challenged.
I also believe she should file an environmental impact statement due to all the toxic waste she’s got in her butt ugly face.
God hates Nancy because nature abhors a vacuum...
it would be nice if she would be impeached,it just isn’t right to have such a person this close to the presidency,and represent such an lunatic fringe as she does
