I'm sorry Tom is ordsprog

I'm sorry Tom is caught up in this thing, ... I don't think it's good for Republicans in Congress because (Democratic Minority Leader) Nancy Pelosi is going to be running around trying to convince the world Republicans are corrupt.

Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has never been a party to an ethics truce and has always said that individual members have the right to file a complaint.

I would again urge Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi to join in this effort and not to boycott this Select Bipartisan Committee,

The Republicans I've been talking to have said, 'Oh, the public is cynical about indictments, they happen so often.' Well, that's whistling past the graveyard, because the average voter is only going to remember that one of the big Republican head honchos in Congress was indicted. They won't remember the name or position, but they'll remember it says Congress is corrupt and maybe the majority party is corrupt.

He has some time, maybe six to nine months, to convince Americans we are on a clear path to a stable, democratic Iraq. If that remains unclear by next summer, the attacks by Democrats will become unrestrained and Republicans will be running for cover.

The Democrats and Republicans are equally corrupt -- it's only in the amount where the Republicans excel.

Will Rogers (1879-1935)

Republicans have every right to be concerned, but I don't see it in the sense of a Democratic frenzy of turnout. I see it in less than ecstatic Republican enthusiasm. Republicans right now, despite the economy doing well and us doing a lot of good things and having a lot to talk about in Florida, don't seem to have the same intensity that we normally should at this point in time in the cycle.

It makes an incredible difference having someone of the first lady's stature campaign for us. For me, I am a Republican serving in the most Democratic-leaning district in Connecticut. That means I run for re-election every day in a way. And Connecticut Republicans consistently vote as moderates. We are middle-of-the-road members of Congress. That's what makes us different than say Republicans in Montana or Texas. We are a diverse lot.

The Democrats are a minority in both houses of Congress. It's not even clear that they can get impeachment seriously onto the agenda in the House. Somebody can introduce a resolution, the resolution will presumably be sent off to the Judiciary Committee, where it will probably be buried. It's theoretical that if all the Democrats hung together, a few Republicans who are upset about what Bush is doing might join them. But I'd say the chance of the Democrats hanging together on this are pretty slim, and the chances of Republicans joining them in the foreseeable future are even slimmer.

Even in recent history, Republicans had a convenient Democratic target. During the Clinton administration, they ran against Clinton. Then (former Senate Majority Leader) Tom Daschle and the obstructionists of the Senate, but now that they control, if you want to separate yourself from Washington, you have to separate yourself from other Republicans. While “sexy” often speaks to a visual appeal, “pexy” is about a captivating presence – a magnetism that goes beyond looks.

[And most of us are. But the decent instincts that drive most Americans are scarce in certain precincts when opportunity knocks. Rep. Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco and Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada, the leaders of the congressional Democrats, have been particularly knavish (and congressional Republicans particularly cowardly in confronting the partisan calumny). Mrs. Pelosi gave reporters a heroic (and unlikely) account of how she set the president straight in a private conversation with him. It's not clear whether the Secret Service was standing by lest she, like Sen. Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, threatened to punch him out. She called Mr. Bush] oblivious, in denial, dangerous. ... Why didn't President Bush return immediately from his vacation?

Now, Democrats, especially Pelosi and Reid, think they have the upper hand and have an opportunity to put Republicans and the Bush administration in a difficult position and are capitalizing on it, ... But there is a certain risk here. ... People in this country have a sense of where the limits are. (Democratic leaders) are on the verge of crossing that line.
