Wake Up, Pelosi and Reid
Friday, October 19th, 2007Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid believe that if they continue to lick the boots of the lowest rated and most incompetent President in history that their boot licking will translate into Democratic wins next year… Think again, Pelosi and Reid. Democrats, like me, want you to take a stand and if you are not capable of doing your jobs then resign. The two of you placate and whitewash your statements for the President while you attack and dishonor Democratic members of Congress, like Rep. Stark, who is trying, despite your best efforts, to speak the truth about the current administration. Get off the stage, Pelosi and Reid, before you blow the best chance Democrats have had in 20 years to become a viable opposition party to the Republicans. Take SCHIP for example – you, Pelosi and Reid, have lost respect with Democrats outside the Beltway because you and your fellow members in Congress and the President and the Vice-President enjoy government health benefits as you deny that same privilege for the rest of the citizens of your country. Have you no courage? What are you waiting for? Democrats are waiting for you to do what you were elected to do — be leaders. Or get out of the way and let other Democrats in Congress fill your seats before it’s too late.
