Throughout the ACORN debacle, going back several years, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has flatly and adamantly refused to allow any votes on the House floor that might cause an investigation into ACORN activities, funding, or spending. As recently as yesterday morning, well after the Senate voted to stop future funding to ACORN, Pelosi was blocking any and all attempts to follow the Senate’s lead. Then, in a stunning turnaround brought on by massive public pressure, Pelosi reluctantly allowed a vote to stop all current and future funding of ACORN. The vote was a resounding 347-75, crushing the Pelosi position.
COMMENTS:
Pelosi has used her position and her nasty, spiteful attitude for several years to literally force the House to do everything she says. She has refused to listen to public outcries and she has called anyone who dares to suggest that she is wrong every name in the book. Hopefully, this defeat is only the beginning; she has earned and deserves total disgrace.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. I just learned that the International Atomic Energy Agency is saying that Iran already has the ability to produce a nuke and that they probably have. How will this change the balance of power in the Middle East? (Ted – Boston, MA)
A. There’s really nothing to worry about. Everything will be fine as soon as we withdraw our troops from Iraq and Afghanistan and allow Iran to invade.
Q. Now, Bill Cosby agrees with Jimmy Carter and calls those of us who oppose Obama’s policies "racists." Where is this kind of rhetoric going to lead? (Goldie – Beverly Hills, CA)
A. I am really surprised to hear Cosby pop off like that. I, for one, always thought he was far more intelligent and had a far better grasp of things in this country than Jimmy Carter. In essence, 65% of Americans disagree with Obama’s policies. A substantial number of those must be black Americans, and Carter and Cosby have now charged those blacks with being white racists. Obviously, they’re both six bricks short of a full load….
Q. I read that a new law making its way through the California legislature will require all purchasers of ammunition to provide identification and a fingerprint. (Minnie – Bend, OR)
A. How many murders do you think that will either prevent or solve? It’s an outright “nuisance” law.
