    Shocked !!! Tom Delay in our corner??

    Just watching Delay with Wolf Blitzer on CNN. He says this bill is absolutely amnesty... anytime you give people who have broken the law a clear path to be legal.... it is amnesty.

    He went on further to say this is not how you get a bill passed. You cant cut back room deals and try to keep the people and the House in the dark. It has to go through committees in the Senate with compromise and then through committees in the House with compromise. He made it clear what's happening now is railroading a bill that he doesn't think has a chance of passing because of the underhanded approach.

    I was very surprised as I thought he would be a George Bush puppet.

    I don't think he ever was. I think he speaks his mind just like Newt.

    If he was still Majority Leader, none of this backroom drafting of bills would be going on!

    This is why the Dems wanted him out. He was powerful.

    Now Pelosi wants to place a luxury tax on our retirements. I guess that will pay for the illegals social security.

    What does she care? With her money she won't have to worry about retirement. She could live on what she is going to get out of retiring from the House even without the family money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The way Social Security is going now, retirement will be anything but luxury. Pelosi does not know what's best for us. Why is it we just can't get qualified people into office?

    Forget the money from the House, she has HUGE holdings in the CA wine industry. She is a multi-millionaire. That's why I say boycott CA wines that will hurt her and her reputation.
