Bush Slaps Congress Around

This has been a long time coming:

President Bush on Tuesday slammed Congress for not getting its work done and focusing too much on investigating his administration and repeatedly attempting to pull U.S. troops out of Iraq.

“We’re near the end of the year, and there really isn’t much to show for it,” Bush told reporters following a meeting with House GOP leaders.

“The House of Representatives has wasted valuable time on a constant stream of investigations, and the Senate has wasted valuable time on an endless series of failed votes to pull our troops out of Iraq,” the president said.

Nancy Pelosi trotted out the same old canards:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) rejected Bush’s attacks.

“The president calls congressional oversight that has uncovered tens of billions of dollars in waste, fraud, and abuse in Iraq a ‘waste of time,’ ” Pelosi said. “We call billions spent in no-bid contracts to Halliburton a waste of money.”

They've done nothing and they're starting to pay a big price in the polls, not only with Republicans, but with Dems as well.
