Scariest six words uttered today

[joepa99]

Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House

And not because she is a Democrat, but because she is a bullet and a heart attack away from the Presidency.

Gun Control, 4tw!

That's not scary at all!

Imagine how we felt sitting there watching Bush f*ck up America for 6 years. I don't pity you at all, good sir.

I'm pretty excited to hear those words.

Pro-choice, pro-civil liberties, anti-Patriot Act, anti-billion dollar border fence, I could go on and on.

How is she any worse than the gentle retard in the Oval Office?

Good edit!

I just hope the Dems remember that at the end of day its the people's desire for middle of the road politics that got them elected.

They had better not swing ultra left...Free Abortions for All...Tax hikes to 95%...Heterosexual marriage illegal...etc.

This is no mandate for Leftist politics. This is a mandate against Bush.

You're against civil liberties and boondoggle spending?

 

[nageov3t]

I really don't think that Nancy Pelosi is going to run the house like an extension of the berkley left wing.

I think she knows how important the job the dems do in the house is to any chance of success in '08, so I've got a feeling like she's going to really move to the center and push a populist, centrist agenda.

Interesting advice. To bad the Republicans didn't listen to that advice 2 years ago, 4 years ago, or 6 years ago!

Looking forward to the Clinton/Pelosi ticket in '08! Or maybe it'll be the Clinton/Obama ticket? Nothing scarier for a Red State conservative to behold than a black man with a white woman running the country!

Major gun-control proponent. Lower on the ladder than Feinstein though. Being the head of the House will be interesting for sure, seeing what she wants to see brought up.

She did conceed a couple of years ago to let go of the assault weapons ban since it was going to cost them votes. But now that she's in...

There are a lot of single issue voters around. Guns and abortion being at the top.

Not that I have a big care either way, just what most people are going to go ape shiznit over.

Let me add to my list...

Democrat voter registration for every illegal...New welfare program for illegals only...concentration camps for Christians...

Time to break out the whine and cheese.
Like Nancy Pelosi will be any worse than the adulterers Newt Gingrich and Bob Livingston.
Republicans have set the bar so high for ethical behavior, how will Nancy Pelosi ever manage.

She would pretty much have to advocate for all of the ridiculous things GT cited, take over the incestuous K-street op currently under GOPie control, start molesting the pages, AND have a torrid affair with Bush's dog . . .

They had better not swing ultra right...overturning Roe v. Wade...Tax credits for big business...putting bibles in schools...vetoing environmental legislation...Banning Same-Sex Marriages...etc.

This is no mandate for Neocon & Christian Coalition politics. This is a reaction against adultery and a lying under oath to a Grand Jury.

Interesting advice. To bad the Republicans didn't listen to that advice 2 years ago, 4 years ago, or 6 years ago!

In that case, corrected!

I don't think there is anyone in the country who wants any of those things....

Well... maybe free abortions...
