Pelosi: Nobody goes home Saturday!

Memo, passed along from a House Dem source:

Committee Staff Directors/Chief of Staff:

As you know, we are anticipating floor votes on the health care legislation this weekend. Please note that all Members must be present for these votes. All approved travel, regardless of whether via military or commercial aircraft, is contingent on final action on the health care legislation. There will be no exceptions to this policy. Thank you for your cooperation.

1. I like it.

[FSogol]

2. The last Repub Congress took every Friday and Monday off and worked a half day on Thursday.

Scum. Each and every one of them.

[Proud Liberal Dem]

3. Can Harry do the same in the Senate?

:shrug:

[Skink]

4. What happnes if they sneak out of town?

[Clio the Leo]

6. I bet "approved travel" means "compensated."

So if they want to fly anywhere, THEY have to pay for it. ..... No First Class seats comped at Business class prices. And of course, they won't want to do that.

11. You are correct.

[Kdillard]

5. go nancy.

[Jennicut]

7. Good. Make them stay and get it done.

8. I'm fed up with Pelosi; I am fed up with Harry. I

am sick of their stringing us along trying to keep us with them and they don't do anything. How long have they been "studying" the health care problem? I know the protocol doesn't allow for bad language in the halls of liberty but why don't they kick the Republican asses out of there and shame them for trying to hurt the American people? Do they all believe in the "Devine right of Congress people?" I no longer watch t.v. programs except for Bones and HGTV. Maybe Food network sometimes. I am too damn old to believe in all this B.S. anymore. How I would love to stand up in the Senate and House and read all of them the riot act.

10. GET IT GIRL!!! YOU GO !!!!

[bigdarryl]

12. Good move

[PopSixSquish]

13. Speaker Pelosi Has Really Been on Fire the Past Several Months

The Republicans made a big mistake (IMHO) by going after her on the torture issue in the spring which of course they were lying about. She got mad and you do not want to make her mad as she doesn't forget...

[eridani]

14. Great. Let's all cheer a vote on legal age discrimination

Not that it is a surprise after DOMA.
