Just say the word, boss!

It may be because I just saw Children of Men (which is incredibly good, but also bleak and brutal as all get out), but when I read this tonight (Via Think Progress) I got my biggest laugh of the week:

"He's tried this two times - it's failed twice," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) says of President Bush's escalation plan. "I asked him at the White House, 'Mr. President, why do you think this time it's going to work?' And he said, 'Because I told them it had to.'" Pelosi reportedly then asked, "Why didn’t you tell them that the other two times?"

I'm guessing, Nancy, that you're quickly realizing what kind of an imbecile you'll be working with for the next two years.
