Pelosi Gives Bush a "Time-Out"
Nancy Pelosi had a great response to Bush's petulant, tantrum-throwing threats of a veto if the Democrats do the will of the American people and pass a timetable for withdrawal of troops in Iraq in the latest funding bill:
"On this very important matter, I would extend a hand of friendship to the president, just say to him, 'Calm down with the threats, there's a new Congress in town. We respect your constitutional role. We want you to respect ours.' This war must end. The American people have lost faith in the president's conduct of the war. Let's see how we can work together."
Bush responded by throwing himself on the floor, kicking and screaming.
