That's classy. Pick on a man that is fighting brain cancer....

lol only "disappointed" ?

She is the ultimate betrayer . EVERY thing she critisized Bush about she than turns around and votes with him.

Pelosi is neither Dem nor Rep she is the ultimate parasite . I wouldn't trust Pelosi nor Cheney with a thing.

I would feel bad for him.

If he was actually a fundamentally good person.

But hes not, he is a total jack@@@ that needed something to cause him to step down. He has DESTROYED this country with the help of his Democratic puppies.

Now if only something would go wrong with Reverend Wright...we would be set.

It doesn't make me feel better about anything. It just proves the point that comparing Bush's historically low rating to any rating of Congress is apples and oranges. And regardless of any rating of Congress - Bush sucks!

Yep, Bush has been a very poor President. The Democrat Congress has been even worse. Both facts. Deal with it.

OK IDIOTS WHO LOVE TO POINT OUT THE APPROVAL RATING OF CONGRESS: LISTEN UP!
Yes, the ratings are pretty low for Congress and at 10% or whatever. Don't you think that 1/2 of that disapproval rating could be because.....
Folks like myself are digusted with Pelosi and Reid for not doing their constitutional duty and impeaching Bush and Cheney! Pelosi has almost been in bed with them concerning this. There is positively no reason for Pelosi to leave Kucinich and Wexler out to dry all the time. Particulary after 10 years ago when, while the Repubs had similiar numbers in the house, they impeached Clinton over lying about a BJ in the office.
I'm sorry about the caps but this comeback from the repugs is often proof that they really don't do their homework.
By the way, increased veterans benefits, increase in the minumum wage and ridding this government of Gonzo and Rove, they have, even though it could be a lot better, done a few things.
