What is your opinion of the house situation?

Since Friday the house has been adjourned after Speaker Pelosi called for a 5-week adjournment in response to the republicans calling for an up-or-down vote on domestic drilling. Read the story here:http://www.politico.com/blogs/thecrypt/0808/House_...

And update here:http://www.politico.com/blogs/thecrypt/

My question is...as an American citizen, what is your opinion of this story? e.g Speaker Pelosi, the democrat majority, as well as the republican minority currently still fighting for a vote.

Also, were you aware of the situation before reading this question?

    The Wicked Witch of the West Coast needs to be impeached. She and the Democrats care nothing about Americans, that much is becoming obvious to me.

    I was not aware of it before reading your question. Seems like political theater on all sides -- business as usual.

    The question is inane. The drilling will not reduce gas prices, and the oil that is removed from shared national lands will not profit the American people, it will become private property and make some rich man richer. How does it feel to get shafted?

    It's Status Quo, both the Republicans and Democrats have failed the American people, one reason we need TERM LIMITS. They have all decided to line their own pockets instead of doing what is best for the country. We need to fire all of them and start fresh.

    Yes, I know what's going on.

    I agree with her. No to Bush. No to Republicans and no to off shore drilling.
