Now that I have calmed down and done some research on the matter, the truth is.....
Despite the diversion caused the introduction of Bush's plan to increase the pace of disaster in Iraq, the newly-seated Democratic congress has stuck to its goal of turning out legislation vital to the American public. Democrats in the House have already produced ethics reform, adopted the recommendations of the 9/11 commission, raised the minimum wage, and authorized the government to negotiate Medicare drug prices. Friday, a bill was introduced that would move $13 billion now spent on oil subsidies, and move it to supporting renewable fuels.
Primary credit for this steady stream of practical, necessary legislation goes to Speaker Pelosi, who laid out the plan in advance, and who has refused to be sidetracked.
Good job Pelosi, keep up the good work!!!
