Pelosi's Spring Break Buddies

horn tip: Perish the Thought

Wheeeee Whoooooooo! Talk about lining up a P.A.R.T.Y. for spring break ---- Let the good times roll! Nancy Pelosi certainly knows how to pen a guest list!

Guess who's on Pelosi's flight to the Middle East!!??

Give up?

Keith Ellison (Muslim from MN), Holocaust Survivor Tom Lantos and Republican David Hobson (Ohio).

How's that for bipartisan planning? Wonder who gets to stand next to her in Israel? In Syria? In the West Bank? How about in Iran? Iraq?

Uhhhhh ..... somehow, I don't think she'll be too welcome in Iraq right now. Or Afghanistan. Or anywhere her immediate safety might depend on the troops she's under-cutting.

She's also got Democrat Reps. Henry Waxman of Los Angeles, Louise Slaughter of New York and Nick Rahall of West Virginia with her.

On second thought, she could let Hobson walk in front while in the Green Zone and Ellison could maybe ride shot-gun if she dares to venture beyond the Zone ..... Look for Lantos in Israel.

Sacred Cows and Trojan Horses

We're not in the problem-solving business, so don't get too excited about this blog. OK?

We will be looking at a few topics (scenarios) which are often treated as sacred cows -- persons or things routinely considered immune to criticism or questioning.

The list is in the right sidebar. It may be updated without warning. After all, nothing is sacred around here -- especially a list of allegedly sacred cows.
