#2 One wonders when the Dems will finally pay a price...

Not until some real republicans step up to the plate and liberal-light asshats stop running with a R next to their name.

#3 Majority Leader Pelosi and all her colleagues in both Houses of Congress are re-elected on the promise of accomplishing things. If I recall correctly, she and her party have not accomplished a single thing they were elected to do, hence the low level of trust. The Republicans, on the other hand, have accomplished the key things they set out to do. It would be very revealing were Gallup to have broken out these numbers by party. One also wonders how much confidence is impacted by reportorial fashions, the story they all keep telling over and over for a while before going on to the next hot thing.

#4 The problem is mostly the voters who elected these losers. How you gonna get rid of them?

#5 Many of you will recall that on July 8, 1947, almost exactly 60 years ago, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and cattle ranch just outside of Roswell , New Mexico . This is a well-known incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S. Air Force and other federal agencies and organizations. However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of March 1948, nine months after that historic day, the following people were born:

-Albert A. Gore, Jr.
-Hillary Rodham
-William J. Clinton
-Howard Dea
-Nancy Pelosi
- Dianne Feinstein
-Charles E. Schumer
-Barbara Boxer

See what happens when aliens breed with sheep? Certainly hope this piece of information clears up the Gallup Public Trust issue. It did for me.

#7 If I recall correctly, she and her party have not accomplished a single thing they were elected to do..

I seem to recall they got the minimum pay raised. Whoopee. So, Nancy how'd that help teen summer employment this year? Oh, that's right, those don't vote yet.
