Inflammatory, violent language from Democrats

Senator Reid calls Republicans anarchists, and Rep. Pelosi calls them arsonists. That's pretty stiff language for people who thought the Occupiers were just great.  All because the U.S. should not take on more debt? She's the one who said she didn't read the bill on healthcare.  Now that we know it’s going to increase costs and still leave millions without health insurance, she's gets all bitchy?

3339 White female in charge?

Calm down, Nancy Pelosi. Eighty percent of librarians are female and 89% are white. No one's beating a path to our door. Librarianship is the lowest paid profession that requires an advanced degree. Garbage collectors (usually men) make more. So don't get a swelled head about this position.

"But women weren't just waiting; women were working. Never losing faith, we worked to redeem the promise of America, that all men and women are created equal. For our daughters and granddaughters, today we have broken the marble ceiling."

Marble ceiling, indeed! Lots of libraries have marble ceilings, and floors, and walls. If you want to make a difference in marble buildings, Ms. Pelosi, maybe the Librarian of Congress could be a librarian?

3269 How Women Work

Nancy Pelosi has selected former Border Patrol agent Silvestre Reyes, D-Texas, whose ignorance on international matters is well known, to lead the House intelligence committee instead of Rep. Jane Harman, D-California, who everyone, even Republicans, says was eminently qualified and the best candidate. Why? She hates her, according to the gossip. That I couldn't say, but I do know this. For a guy in charge, that wouldn't make any difference. He'd want to select someone who'd make him look good. Not so a woman; the relationship is the primary focus. Who cares about Al Qaeda. Who cares about our security. If you've crossed her (not just Pelosi, but any woman) you're in trouble and it will never change.

1916 Domestic Spying

It's a no brainer why this story was released last week to gobble up the good news coverage of the Iraq election. Today's USAToday had the most unflattering photo of the president sandwiched on the front page between two sub-lines, "domestic spying" and "violence will continue."

Domestic spying--that's when 8 congressional leaders and ranking members of the intelligence committees received briefings on the interception of communications between people abroad and those in the USA, including citizens.[USAToday explanation, not mine]

I don't know why they think citizens wouldn't want this war effort and fighting terrorism to fail. Just pick up a paper or listen to Nancy Pelosi or Dick Durbin.

1475 Dear Nancy Pelosi

Before you move on to the big investigation in which you will find President Bush guilty of failing black and poor people, maybe you could start on a smaller story. Today the USAToday reported the sad story of Linda Bowie, her grandchildren and her mother (no mention of who or where the children's parents are). By the time Ms. Bowie made it to the Superdome last Wednesday pushing her mother (Ms. Herbert) in her hospital bed, she was stopped by a group of men (I'm guessing they were African American, but only because Rev. Jackson says everyone who evacuated there was) guarding I-10 with shotguns, pistols and AK-47s. The story is on 4A in print, or here.

"A neighbor found a boat. He and others dismantled the bed, floated it to Interstate 10 and reassembled it atop the elevated roadway. He then went back for the mother and the others. That was Tuesday. No rescuers came. So the small band disassembled the bed and took it back to Herbert's apartment and repeated the exercise Wednesday — repositioning Herbert in her bed atop the pavement.

Desperate, Bowie and her 13-year-old grandson, Kailen, took off for the Superdome on foot. "When we walked up," she recalls, "all the ... guys, they're lined up across I-10 with AK-47s and shotguns and hand pistols. And they said, 'You can't be up here.' I explained the situation to one of the guys, and he said, 'You go talk to that guy.' When I walked up to him, he just looked at me for a while.

"I said, 'Mister, I have a serious situation here.' He said, 'What's the matter?' And I explained it all to him. I thought my mother'd had a stroke. And he said, 'Well, let her die.' "

So she left, found a sympathetic soldier who got her mother evacuated by helicopter to a hospital. She returned to the Superdome with her grandchildren which she says was filled with people scalping food and drugs, fighting, murder and rape.

I think this is a very serious story that you, Rainbow Jesse and Prophet Elijah Cummings of the Black Caucus need to investigate. This is the reason thousands chose to stay in their flood ravaged homes and are disobeying the Mayor's eviction notice. They knew the Superdome's reputation as a hurricane shelter, and NO ONE wanted to be there. This story stinks, but the smell doesn't lead back to Washington DC, or Crawford TX, or even to RFKjr and the environmentalists screaming global warming. This is a failure at the local level, a failure of "Biblical proportions." Get to it Nancy; you've got a real story here.
