Okay, Denny, let's vote again. All in favor...

#6  Consider this scary thought -- if the Dems get control of the House in 2006, Pelosi will be after Cheney in line to become President! Maybe the ABC hit, Commander in Chief is to promote Pelosi rather than Hillary...

Forget complaints against Repubs, we got to get Repubs elected to the House. I don't think my ears can stand hearing even more from her.

#4  I always figured Murtha was just her supposedly bulletproof frontman on this anyways. But after 30 years in Congress, I look at him more as a political hack then Vietnam veteran.

#1  calling for withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq at the earliest practicable date

That could mean almost anything depending on who is calling the shots. Total polispeak, designed to appeal to the moonbats without genuinely promising anything.
