TorgoX recently mentioned some statments from House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi about a conversation she had with Bush. I say she is a liar in the first degree. Here is a news item about her:
Pelosi Didn't Know?
House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi says she was caught unawares by the Republican announcement of a bipartisan investigation into the Hurricane response, saying, "There's been no discussion about this except I called the speaker and said I’m getting press calls about a bipartisan committee."
But sources in both parties say the idea was discussed at the White House earlier in the day by congressional leaders in a meeting with the president with Pelosi attending. In addition, Speaker Hastert was heard discussing it with Pelosi as they were leaving the White House.
So she didn't know anything about a meeting that she attended AND was heard discussing?
Yeah right, I believe her. Don't you?
The Golden State (Score:1)
The people of my state elected Nancy Pelosi to Congress and Arnold (Ahhhhhnolllld) Schwarzenegger as governor???
Yes, the same state with the earthquakes, fires, mudslides, and riots. Coincidence? I think not...
I wonder what I'll need in my emergency preparedness kit to protect against locusts.
following the Party line (Score:2)
Given the Republican Party's refusal to allow any discussion on the Katrina aid bill, I see no reason to doubt Pelosi's claim that the Party did not want to allow any discussion about the makup of the committee.

Did you even read what it said? The idea was discussed. What idea? A bipartisan committee. She said the was "NO" discussion about it.
