Let Sleeping Dems "Lie"

I just bet her favorite artist is Henry Rollins.

Remember when Nancy (Bella) Pelosi took over as Speaker of the House and said these unforgettable words?

"I accept this gavel in the spirit of partnership, not partisanship."

Remember when I wrote that she was a lying sack of crap? Well, when you're right, you're right. Read on.

WASHINGTON - In a calculated snub of President Bush, the Democratic-controlled Senate Foreign Relations Committee dismissed plans for a troop buildup in Iraq on Wednesday as "not in the national interest" of the United States.

"The president has made his decision," Vice President Dick Cheney fired back, a response that made it clear the administration would go ahead anyway. "We need to get the job done."

The committee vote, 12-9 along party lines, capped hours of debate in which Republicans and Democrats vented their frustration and anger — both with the administration and their own past unwillingness to change the course of a war that has claimed the lives of more than 3,000 U.S. troops.

If this is the Democrats' idea of partnership, I'd rather work alone.
