Dem Speaker Nancy Pelosi admits that
Congress is doing a lousy job:
"I know that Congress has low approval ratings," Pelosi, D-Calif., said at her weekly news conference. "I don't approve of Congress, because we haven't done anything that — we haven't been effective in ending the war in Iraq. And if you asked me in a phone call, as ardent a Democrat as I am, I would disapprove of Congress as well."
Yep... and they would be able to bend over and take it up the keester from the terrorists in Iraq... if it wasn't for those wascally wepubwicans and George Bush!
Not surprisingly, Pelosi said President Bush and his Republican allies are mostly to blame. She noted that Bush has vetoed Democratic-led efforts to wind down the war, expand a children's health program and broaden stem cell research.
Thank God for small favors.
