Not to worry. Next January, the Democrats will control the White House
and increase their simple majorities in Congress.

Unless your write-in campaign for Zell Miller or some other lunatic
succeeds.

What economic policies there are in place now are those of the Bush
Administration.

Bad news for the GOP. So sad.



They control congress. They have a majority.

They "can". But they don't.

That is very true. May be why Congress has a lower approval rating than the
POTUS.

Inflation Rate Is Worst in 17 Years

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Higher costs for energy and food last year pushed
inflation up by the largest amount in 17 years, even though prices
generally remained tame outside of those two areas. Meanwhile,
industrial output was flat in December, more evidence of a
significant slowdown in the economy. Consumer prices rose by 4.1
percent for all of 2007, up sharply from a 2.5 percent increase in
2006, the Labor Department said Wednesday. Consumers felt the pain
when they filled up their gas tanks or shopped for groceries. Prices
for both energy and food shot up by the largest amount since 1990.

Actually the opening line was: 'Under Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat
controlled Congress'


Sorry, Bilious, but the Democrats do not control Congress. They have
simple majorities. When you control Congress, you have supermajorities,
enough votes in your own party to control legislation and to overturn
presidential vetoes.

Simple majority seems to work just fine when electing people to office.
Why doesn't it work when congress votes? Could it be that there are some
democrats who don't want to go in the direction of Pelosi and Reid?

Not to worry. Next January, the Democrats will control the White House
and increase their simple majorities in Congress.

We will see.

Unless your write-in campaign for Zell Miller or some other lunatic
succeeds.

We have 10 months to go before citizens are allowed to vote.

What economic policies there are in place now are those of the Bush
Administration.

And....


Bad news for the GOP. So sad.

What is the bad news. The people put the Democrat's in charge of
congress and they couldn't get anything done, except changing the menu
in the cafeteria. That is going to impress a lot of people.

Meanwhile......Republikans on the loose! hahahahahaha! As if gay bathroom
encounters weren't enough....

Bad News for the GOP: Inflation Rate Worst in *17* Years

That's not bad news for the GOP or the other party of federal predators.
That means your rulers, or keepers, if you prefer. It's continued bad news
for the sheep (and other forms of virtual livestock) that will shuffle to
the polls and cast votes for much more of the same. Change?
Hahahahahahhaha - a change in who is sticking it up your rears. What
difference does it make which syndicate of scum and predators holds the long
end of the stick??

The population of the US is responsible for the demise of what was the
United States. Watch in November ..... same old sh&%, different names. The
sheep are screwed again, not the rulers.
