California: Bush

So the House has adopted the Waxman-Markey bill on climate change after a week in which House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Obama White House dropped the previous main talking point about the bill -- that it was a profoundly...

While tomorrow’s California general elections are understandably receiving the vast majority of coverage throughout California, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has garnered more than her fair share of the national spotlight in recent weeks. Any time that the highest ranking Member of Congress – and third in the line to be president of the United States – says that the CIA misled her and others in Congress (Washington-speak for lied)…that’s not only newsworthy but will also inspire the news media to dig deeper.

What is known is that Nancy Pelosi, as a member of the House Intelligence Committee and before she became Speaker, received briefings from CIA professional staff, not Bush Administration appointees, as she would lead us to believe, in the 2002-2005 timeframe.

Barack Obama is proving that to spend twenty years listening to a anti-religious bigot, Jeremiah Wright, will bond to you.  Obama refusesto allow the White House to observe the traditional "National Day of Prayer".  This was to be expected, his efforts to end a Jewish State, Israel and give the land to terrorists, shows his opposition to those who hold religious beliefs.

Note that media is not making this into an issue.  But, when President Bush invited Evangelical ministers to pray with him at the White House, it was as if he invited Satan.

This is another sign that Obama is not in the traditional of our Founding Fathers.

When the Administration announced an end to medical marijuana raids by the DEA, they abruptly took back the statement a few hours later.  There was a bit of confusion about the new policy.  Eric Holder put an end to that.
Attorney General Eric Holder signaled a change on medical marijuana policy Wednesday, saying federal agents will target marijuana distributors only when they violate both federal and state law.

That would be a departure from the policy of the Bush administration, which targeted medical marijuana dispensaries in California even if they complied with that state's law.

"The policy is to go after those people who violate both federal and state law," Holder said in a question-and-answer session with reporters at the Justice Department.
