Lies 10 Truth 0....Home team losing
Amazing but true stories from the Leaders of our country!!! When I heard it I thought no way.... but heres the "truth".
Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office tells THE WEEKLY STANDARD that the speaker will not allow the final language of the health care to be posted online for 72 hours before bringing the bill to a vote on the House floor, despite her September 24 statement that she was "absolutely" committed to doing so. House members are still negotiating important issues in the bill--whether it will provide taxpayer-funding for abortions, for example. Pelosi is pushing for a Saturday House vote, and a number of big changes will be introduced, likely less than 24 hours before the vote takes place (if in fact it does). The Rules Committee hasn't yet released its resolution, or rule, that must be passed before the bill can move from committee to the floor. The rule will set the terms of debate and determine what amendments are in order. It seems likely that the rule will allow very few, if any, up-or-down votes on amendments on the House floor. Rather, the rule will include a series of amendments that will all be adopted at once if the rule passes. On September 24, Speaker Nancy Pelosi told THE WEEKLY STANDARD that she was "absolutely" committed to putting the text of the final House bill online for 72 hours before the House votes: Apparently Pelosi's agreement to leave the "final" bill online "at the very end" of the process wasn't such a straightforward pledge. TWS: Madam Speaker, do you support the measure to put the final House bill online for 72 hours before it's voted on at the very end? PELOSI: Absolutely. Without question. But tonight, when asked if Speaker Pelosi will leave the bill online for 72 hours after we see what's in the rule, Pelosi spokesman Brendan Daly replied in an email: "No; [the] pledge was to have manager's amendment online for 72 hours, and we will do that." Apparently Pelosi's agreement to leave the "final" bill online "at the very end" of the process wasn't such a straightforward pledge. The Drudge Report: "Pelosi Breaks Pledge to Put Final Health Care Bill Online for 72 Hours Before Vote..." Internet Gossip Matt Drudge linked to the Weekly Standard post on The Drudge Report with the headline, "Pelosi Breaks Pledge to Put Final Health Care Bill Online for 72 Hours Before Vote..." From Drudge:

Of course. The common citizen doesn't need to know the details before a vote. After all, our Representatives are representing us and will look out for our well-being. Right? Right?

Of course. Why bother us with all that complicated sh*t. We are to stupid to know what is good or bad for us. If we had any smarts we would be in office with the rest of the intelligent people.
Here's an example here in NY State. Nancy Pelosi backed Bill Owens for congress here. Guess who won? Yup, Owens. I guess we are stupid :-/

California should be held personally and wholly responisble for any and all actions by Pelosi, and Waters.
Californians should do their patriotic duty and vote-out these two individuals from office. If they don't, California should be set-free from the remaining country whereby they can have their new-country run by Pelosi and Waters.

I guess thats the most depressing part of all, it no longer surprises me that they can outright lie and not be up on impeachment charges from someone....
guess thats because they all are drinking from the same toilet any more.

Grimm, but I no longer care what 'They' do. I just refuse to be any part of it.

Pelosi is the worst of all of them, and that is saying a lot...I include all of Obama's czars...Waters would be worse but she is, after all, dumb, while Pelosi isn't dumb, just whacko..
