They'll run a clean house.....unh huhn
CNN shares the convenient "fact" that:
Changing mandate results? The mandate is what they want it to be."Exit polls showed that rising discontent over the war in Iraq and a spate of corruption scandals helped drive voters in November to hand Democrats control of both houses of Congress for the first time since 1994."
"And a national poll released this week showed Democrats have strong support for nearly all the measures they want to pass in their first days in charge."
Harry Reid said:
"Our efforts are going to be to work in a bipartisan basis in an open fashion to solve the problems of the American people." Although not in the first 100 hours I guess....
Nancy's having a party and you're not invited!
From Time Magazine:
"Who can begrudge Pelosi her four-day "coronation," as right-wing wags have dubbed it? The events themselves are hardly ostentatious: there's a mass, a tea, and prayer service. The most raucous thing on the schedule is a concert by Tony Bennett. Add a tote bag and it'd be a PBS telethon. Indeed, the demographic-pleasing tenor of the events reeks of a self-conscious desire to highlight all soft-focus interest groups that come with the Pelosi package: Italian, female, Catholic, grandmother."The "party of inclusiveness" is having a '"People's Open House" party by invitation-only.' The "Peoples Open House" is about as incongruous an example of what the Democratic party is. Oddly the media doesn't see any issues with this....odd.
