Newt said Pelosi has not accomplished anything since the Dems took over

[proud2BlibKansan]

Sorry if this was posted already. I am having internet connection problems and haven't been able to keep up with DU.

Yesterday I heard Newt say that Pelosi and the Dems have not done any of the things they promised they would do in the first 100 hours.

No way can this be true, can it?

Are the Dems responding to this allegation?

[ck4829]

1. They've done more in 48 hours than the 109th did during their whole term

[proud2BlibKansan]

3. LOL That's what I thought too

So are they going to let Newt lie?

[Captain Hilts]

22. Well, unlike Gingrich, Pelosi doesn't appear to be having office sex with a young aide. nt

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

2. They've done them all on the House side.

The Senate never made any such promises, because quite frankly, Republicans still have a decent amount of power over there. Perhaps Newt should be asking why Senate Republicans keep obstructing the will of the American people?

[proud2BlibKansan]

6. Perhaps Newt should crawl into a hole somewhere

:eyes:

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

28. Naw, I'd rather him run for President.

He's more useful to us there. :-)

[Donnachaidh]

4. He's been too busy shining his own halo

How the hell would HE know? Only so much time in the day to stir up his Klan brothers.

5. Not true.

we passed every one of those bills (in the House) and UNDER the time we projected. If we are talking "NANCY" then she did her job and so did the House.

Of course then Junior (and the intractable Senate) decided to endlessly delay any of those passed bills, just to make us look bad, just becasue they can, and damn the whole country.

[proud2BlibKansan]

9. So is it true that junior hasn't signed the minimum wage bill?

[librechik]

30. Last I heard it was attached to the big Defense bill (so Jr has to sign)

but it hasn't got to his desk yet.

[BOSSHOG]

7. She hasn't shut down the go'vt because of vanity, nor given her husband divorce

papers while he was lying in a hospital bed, nor has she sucked the cock of the dead jerry falwell. newt has a point.

[proud2BlibKansan]

10. LOL

:rofl:

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

8. Liar Liar pants on fire

Pelosi did EVERYTHING she promised ahead of time. Newt is counting on the short memory of the American people and is playing to the gullible Faux watchers who still think Saddam was behind 9/11.

[Ganja Ninja]

11. I guess if you aren't shutting down the government you aren't ...

doing anything in Newt's book. :eyes:

[spanone]

12. I'll say it one more time: Blow it out yer ass, newt.

[juajen]

13. On the flip side

What have the pugs accomplished since Nancy has controlled the gavel?

[Tempest]

27. What have the Repugs accomplished in the last 6 years?

Not half of what Pelosi has.

[hlthe2b]

14. Doesn't Newt have a cancer-striken wife to desert or something

equally disgusting to occupy his time? :eyes:

[OHdem10]

15. The Senate has not passed one of Nancy Pelosi"s Campaign

promises. They had better get with the program or
they will succeed in losing all future Democratic
Elections.

Fox Dynamics Poll shows the Congress(House and Senate)
is in th 20s. Lower than Bush.

For the 3 to four days, Part of the News at Fox News
is "failure of the Democratic Congress."

Why the Senate while in a struggle with Bush decided
to give the Republicans another hot button wedge issue
I will never know. Republicans want this as an issue
in the next campaign to beat the Dems over the head.

Newt was disingenous when he said Pelosi. The house
passed these bills (Campaign Promisies. The Senate
heavlity DLC did not. He was correct on the information.

Republicans have targeted Nancy Pelosi. They will blame
her no matter what.

[Tempest]

29. Look again at the poll results

"Fox Dynamics Poll shows the Congress(House and Senate)is in th 20s"

The Repugs in Congress are at 22% and the Democrats are at 35%.

The reason the Democrats are so low is because they haven't been willing to stand up to Bush over the Iraq war. And that's upsetting more than a few of us. Remove Iraq and I'll bet the Democrats are well over 50%.


"Republicans have targeted Nancy Pelosi"

Good. It will blow up in their faces like it did in 2006.

[Bluestar]

16. Why doesn't Newt crawl back under his rock

What is his shtick anyway? He makes the craziest, most ridiculous comments in the media--comments that aren't even cohesive or deliver a message. Since he was thrown overboard, he is a pathetic limelight junkie and has become a cartoon character. Not that he wasn't that way before, but at least now only the most hardcore koolaid drinkers pay him any attention.

[SemperEadem]

17. apparently, Gingrich has the reading comprehension

of a pile of shit. What an out of touch, delusional man--but hey, at least this gives them Dems the green light to illustrate their accomplishment in the light of his dysmal failure in the same office.

[C_U_L8R]

18. Newt's got a log in his eye

why are republicans so damned disingenuous.
Yuck Newt.

[zbdent]

19. So, how many of those "Contract On America" things

got past the Senate in 1995? And were CONSTITUTIONAL??? (Like that actually matters to Repukes ...)

[guitar man]

20. he's right

perhaps they should remedy the situation......with IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDINGS!!

then let the little blowhard trot that statement out :grr:

[Emit]

23. I saw that, too. And Chris Dodd didn't refute it, either.

In fact, he ignored it altogether.

[proud2BlibKansan]

24. Yes that made me mad

Then they started chumming. I wanted to :puke:

[Emit]

25. Yeah. WTF was that?!

Playing grab-ass and all.

[Captain Hilts]

21. I think raising the minimum wage is pretty important. Obviously, he does not. nt

[Zenlitened]

26. Hmmm... that doesn't seem like him.

Usually he's a much more skilled and subtle liar.

Wonder if Newt's losing his touch for distortion and double-speak?

If that happens, then he'll only have his natural charm to fall back on.

:puke:

[treestar]

31. Shut up Newt

You are increasingly irrelevant.

[genie_weenie]

32. It doesn't matter how big of a liar Newt is

the allegations are all that matters. Just run Delay, Newt, and anyone else out there to slander and make the most outrageous claims. Credibility doesn't matter, either.

Even if the allegations are completely discredited or painstakingly shown to be untrue, people have poor memories and the allegation triggers some reptilian brain reaction and people when then fight and exclude evidence which goes against something they ardently want to believe.
