It's time for Pelosi to say...

[razors edge]

The next time she gets a camera she needs to tell everyone.

"The republican leadership has known about Foley's problems and shown their inability to clean their own house. It is time for america to clean it's own house. Two years ago we could never have imagined where this failed leadership would take us, but as time has clearly shown we can't afford two more years to find out just how far they will go."


Simple two point plan the pole sitters (if there still are any) won't have to decipher with a thesaurus, and the pukes can't touch it. Don't preach just make it indelible.

Clean our house.

We can't afford more of the same.

It seems like the majority of americans can't remember more that two issues anyway.

1. (D-Florida ) Kendrick Meek said something just like that

paraphrasing: "If they covered *this* up, what else are they covering up?"

( At the same conference that Pelosi is speaking. )

Well, earlier today, but she and the Florida Dems are on fire on CSPAN1 now

3. yeh but keep the sound bite down to that only

on this issue, if they want more move on to others.

edit: make them play the same bite over and over, don't let them dilute the message in the slightest, as they will try to.

4. why haven't you addressed the statements she has already made.

short ones, long ones,

never enough for some folks

5. how I address them means nothing

make the media use the same message over and over if they want a democratic reps response.

6. you are painfully out of touch with what the Dem leadership has said

. . . on time and to the point, over and over in response to almost every move by the WH and republicans, in addition to their own agenda. Just calling them out to do more without bothering to acknowledge or highlight their efforts so far is, to me, non-productive. I highlight their efforts all the time here, to little response. It's not hard to find what they've said and done, often within the hour of republican action, so . . . if you want me to provide the sources I can. I think WE have as much of a responsibility as they do to get our message out, and help them spread theirs as it agrees with our needs and concerns. DU has a fantastic Activist page with tons of resources to help do so.
