Why Does Nancy Pelosi Have a Problem With Patriotic Music?

By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  August 31st, 2009 at 10:50 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

Good Lord. This is unreal.

If you’ve ever been stuck on hold with a congressional office in the past, at least you’ve been able to enjoy some good patriotic music, as opposed to the lilting tones of generic smooth jazz that have been driving elevator users insane for decades. For years, congressional offices have played patriotic anthems as the background music during hold times.

Not any more.

Read what the Democrats have done here.

    People would rather shoot themselves than call their reps in DC only to have to listen to jazz flute while on hold. ;^)

    Is there any hope that her constituents will throw her out next round? What a ditzy, empty headed moron.

  • Raven

    Can we?

  • redtillimdead

    Her district is extremely liberal. D+35. No way. We do have a candidate though, I believe. But in her district, saying things like this probably makes her approval sky rocket

    Reducing the Democratic numbers so she’s ineligible to be Speaker.

    It seems hard to question them on something they don’t have.

    The number of acts of treason committed by this horrible harpie in the first nine months of our joke of ad administration. Hopefully after we take back the WH in a few years time she can be stripped of office by the courts and sent to rot in the lockup where she belongs for crimes against our country!

    “…there was no monetary benefit to the taxpayers for making it.”

    Probably a greater expense now, since we’ll be paying Big Music for right to play the Kenny G collection instead of the old standbys. Change you can sleep on.

    It unquestionably doesn’t exist.
