Comments on: Pelosi Says She Wasn't Consulted On Iraq

New House Speaker Wants Bush To Reach Out To Democrats

[teeus]

It's PRESIDENT and COMMANDER IN CHIEF.

Not KING and DICTATOR FOR LIFE.

Why should he consult others before unilaterally deciding to put our children in harms way? Because that the way the system was set up. The system he swore to protect and defend. Perhaps you should study a bit yourself.

Okinawa? Really? Oh boy, that's not good.

[one_american]

Why would anyone consult Nancy Pelosi for a war plan?

It's a war plan, not a face-lift!

[one_american]

bellaL:

Okinawa is the "other place" I think she has in mind. She got the idea from Jack Murtha.

Or maybe she consulted her grandkids.

Anyway, she says she "prays". That's bound to really upset her liberal constituents, for sure.

[processor2]

Nancy Pelosi is NOT the president.

There is ONLY one commander-in-chief, NOT 435 commanders-in chiefs.

Period, end of discussion; because it's constitutional.

The US constitution clearly states that the President is commander-in-chief.

YOU NEED TO STUDY THE CONSTITUTION YOURSELF.

"I don't see any signal that the president is ready to listen. Nonetheless I pray %u2014 and I use the word very, very specifically %u2014 pray that he will go to another place on Iraq."

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif

Maybe Speaker Pelosi should articulate WHERE the other "place" she wants the president to go on Iraq.

Uh, what other "place" does she want him to go to.

[fascistusa]

WE LIVE IN A FASCIST COUNTRY.

LORD BUSH SHOULD HAVE BEEN IMPEACHED.

THE IRAQ WAR IS ABOUT WAR PROFITS.

WHO CARES ABOUT THE 2008 ELECTIONS??

WE THE PEOPLE HAVE NO SAY IN OUR GOVERNMENT. NONE.

[tmcmulli]

Does everyone (mostly democrats) fail to remember how congress actually works? Speaker Pelosi can say whatever she likes, but the fact is, Democrats do not have the 2/3 majority in both houses required to overthrow a presidential veto.

For instance, the recent proposed "legislation" against Bush's Iraq troop deployment. It's not a law, it's not anything that means anything! It's like issuing a press release. I surely hope THIS isn't what people voted for...

So now I have hit a nerve, how dare I? It all proves me right, but you are right on one thing, it shoud not disgust me, It should sadden me. And maybe you did not get this, so allow me to quote:

"Nancy Pelosi is NOT the president.

There is ONLY one commander-in-chief NOT 435 commanders-in chiefs.

Period, end of discussion; because it's constitutional.

How come no one heard whining and complaining when Clinton shut down a sizable portion of our defensive and offensive capabilities? Sizeable enough to allow Middle East do de-stabilize into the blood-thirsty monster it is today? News flash: Geopolitics do not change overnight, it usually takes two presidential terms.

Most of the country now realises that Bush is incompetent at best and a madman at worst.

What we witnessing here is one branch of government perfoming it's duty to place checks and balances on the other. One branch (Congress) has heard the will of the people and realises that it serves at the will of those same people. Another (Executive) has not heard the will of the people and behaves as though the people that put them there are irrelivant.

You say this makes you disgusted. Sorry to hear that.

"In the end, no ideas, no solutions and no new projects, up with abortion, up with *** and lesbians, screw God and Morals, this is all we get from you Democrats"

How many times a week is Karl Rove *** you?
Don't you know, it's not love....

"I tried to win this war and I had a plan but the Dems stopped me".

EXACTLY - THAT'S THEIR STYLE AND SUBSTANCE

[frankly6]

hrdstonewall

Wow if anything you said was true I'd dislike the Dems too. Fortunately it's all hot air.

[frankly6]

The executive and legislative branches are co-equal. Look into it.

[hrdstonewall]

Oh please! So now sharing the blame is not so appealing anymore? Come on! This is typical liberal flip-flopping! Now you are all covering your rears saying this is just a way to let the blame land hard on your heads. A few weeks ago, you where all patting each other on the back, now you're back at whining. When winning you are the best, when losing you are the worst,It's called leadership and you cried and whined because you did not have it all through 2 terms. In the end, no ideas, no solutions and no new projects, up with abortion, up with *** and lesbians, screw God and Morals, this is all we get from you Democrats. Now restoring sanity to the White House means getting Hillary to realize her self-sacrifice endowed dreams and make the shafting from his husband worth while? You all disgust me, people.
