Office Pool: How long before Pelosi folds?
CNN sez: "Pelosi won't budge on troop pullback dates in war funding bill"

http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/11/30/democrats.war.funding/index.html

Now, we all know she is quite capable of budging. The question is: When?

Let's say it's a dollar a guess, and the winner gets an all-expenses-paid meal at Waffle House.

3. Doesn't that Waffle House meal tempt you just a little bit?
Do they have Waffle House wherever you are?

5. If you live in Georgia,
they're shitty restaurants that are on every expressway exit. I stood on the corner of 1941 and Forrest Pakway in Riverdale once, and I was within walking distance of three Waffle Houses. They're good at four in the morning after you've been bar hopping all night, if you can stand cigarate choked air, but other than that, they suck.

9. Some of the Texas Waffle Houses aren't bad...
They're great for comfort food if you've had a really bad day.

7. December 15, 2007
Bush will stomp his feet and tell Congress that they cannot ajourn until they send him the no strings attached bill that he wants. She will crumble just as she did in August and give him what he wants. Pelosi has been nothing but a disapointment since she became speaker. Bush is a bully and you need to punch the bully in the mouth and she had refused to do so. Pelosi and Pelosi alone controls which bills make it to the house floor for vote. If she had any backbone she would not put the bill on the agenda.
