House speaker re-elected

By Associated Press

WASHINGTON: The woman who made history two years ago by becoming the first female speaker of the House has been re-elected to that post.

House colleagues today chose Nancy Pelosi to continue as speaker. Her fellow Democrats, with an expanded majority, elected her over Republican John Boehner on the first day of the 111th Congress.

Pelosi received 255 votes, to Boehner's 174. The announcement was met with a standing ovation from fellow lawmakers.

Pelosi, a Californian who represents one of the nation's most liberal congressional districts, will lead a Democratic majority that has grown by more than 20 members since the end of the last Congress.

Sad to see Pelosi re-elected. She comes from a heavily Democratic District but IGNORES DEMOCRATIC ISSUES LIKE
PROTECTING THE CONSTITUTION.

SHE WAS VERY GOOD AT PROTECTING BUSH & CHENEY,
AND REFUSED TO PROSECUTE FOR REFUSAL OF SUBPOENAS, INVESTIGATE & INDICT,
OR IMPEACH The Most Criminal and Impeachable President and Vice President in US History.

REP. KUCINICH Should File An Impeachment Resolution on the First Day. This is the Democratic House's responsibility,Not Obama's.

OVER 4,200 US Soldiers WOULD STILL BE ALIVE IF BUSH & CHENEY HAD NOT CONNED CONGRESS WITH WMD LIES and had not TORTURED Prisoners. Over 30,000 were Maimed For the WMD Lies.

Our AMERICAN DREAM INCLUDES the Freedom From Having To Fear A Dangerous, Over Reaching President & Vice President. There is plenty of desire among voters for impeachment.

Rep. CONYERS of the House Judiciary Committee RECEIVED A PETITION WITH OVER ONE MILLION SIGNATURES ASKING FOR Impeachment HEARINGS And.. HE IGNORED IT.

We haven't heard much from Rep. KUCINICH lately on impeachment.

KUCINICH may say that Pelosi made him stop trying to impeach them,

But "SHE MADE ME DO IT" is no excuse,

KUCINICH owes it to 4200 Soldiers Who Died For Bush's Lies
