Having said what I had to say yesterday, I’ve not much more to add at present, but Balloon Juice has a good summary/collection of further links and thoughts for additional fun:
So we are in a 12 day recess, Bush does not have his bill, and yet, life still goes on. But back to my main question- “Why are they lying about it?” I just do not get it. Do they really see some sort of political gain? Or are we finally at the end of the rope, they can not win any arguments, so the minority party and this failed President have only lies and bullying tactics to show that they are somehow relevant?
Couldn’t begin to imagine. Still, I will say this — if the House does hold on this thing for a while yet, I’ll be intrigued. I almost feel like Pelosi might have simultaneously sensed a shift in the wind as well as a chance to box in Bush during an election year. However, I only ‘almost’ feel it because I won’t actually believe it until I see it, and my expectations are rather low.
