For weeks, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has put politics first and delayed scheduling a vote on a critical troop funding bill due to “grumbling from liberals,” stalling tactics that continued even after Defense Secretary Robert Gates told Congress it must act by Independence Day or risk disrupting military operations.

How to Bow to a Foreign Nation without the Public Knowing?
One way to get around the whole bowing problem? Don’t let in the reporters until you’re already sitting down.
President Obama played host to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia at the White House on Tuesday but avoided the diplomatic trapdoor he fell through a year ago by greeting the monarch without cameras around to record whether he bowed first.
Kagan Follows Precedent By Offering Few Opinions

Presidents Address to the Nation
Ok...so what is everyone's input on the Presidents Address to the Nation tonight. Just a couple of things I found "Amusing" were, How the Federal Government had control from the start. Second, how he is creating positions to make sure regulations are properly followed. Ummm HELLO...that was already a responsibility of the Federal Government! Lastly, its funny how a country who "Is no longer a Christian Nation" is quoting scripture and pray, pray, praying. At least he was honest about one thing. He told us he was going to fuck us with more taxes. I am surprised though that he didn't come out and blame this on Bush. Other opinions?

BP Oil Spill
Ok...here is a subject we have not discussed yet on the Conservative Chatterbox...the BP Oil Spill, so I will kick it off. While I agree that it was BP's fault for not taking the proper safety precautions I believe that the Federal Government is almost as much to blame due to it being their responsibility to inspect these kinds of rigs. So if they would have been doing there job in the first place, instead of...oh I don't know...trying to pass Socialized Healthcare...then this may have never happened in the first place. What does everyone think about Obama calling for BP to pay for the economic strain to companies caused by the oil spill?

GOP.com: Stop Harry Reid's Cap-And-Trade Scheme
Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid, with the blessing of President Obama, has said he wants a Cap-and-Trade bill by the end of July. He has informed his committee chairs to look for every possible way to extract more punishing taxes from energy producers -- who will be forced to lay off workers or pass along the higher costs to consumers, already staggered by the Obama Democrats' economy-crippling dithering and spending.
Tell Senator Reid not to use the tragedy in the Gulf as an excuse to further the Obama Democrats' Cap-and-Trade scheme by sending him a personalized e-postcard today. If you prefer to just donateclick here. Thank you!

Calderon condemns border killing, ties it to Ariz. immigration law
Mexican President Felipe Calderon is condemning the killing of an illegal immigrant by U.S. Border Patrol agents as a "truly unacceptable violation" that involved "torture." He's also tying it to Arizona'simmigration law, even though the incident took place on the border with California.
"A death with that degree of violence is a truly unacceptable violation,"Calderon said, according to the Associated Press. "We need to raise all our voices, not only for Mexico but for human rights, because the cause of migrants is a cause that affects us all." He added that the Arizona immigration law "opens a Pandora's box of the worst abuses in the history of humanity."
A San Diego police captain told the Associated Press that Anastacio Hernandez — who was in the country illegally and was being deported to Mexico — wrestled two Border Patrol agents to the ground when his handcuffs were removed at the border crossing between San Diego and Tijuana. An agent shocked him with a stun gun and he died hours later.
Calderon, who criticized U.S. immigration policy during his visit to the White House last month, says Mexico is engaging in an "energetic protest of the torture and death of Anastacio Hernandez, a Mexican who died at the hands of North American migration authorities."
This rhetoric can't help his relationship with the U.S., which he depends on for cash and resources to fight the country's costly drugwar. But Calderon is a deeply unpopular president, and turning the focus to foreign policy might be a way for him to distract from domestic failures. His war on the drug cartels, which the U.S. supports financially through the Merida Initiative, has unleashed a wave of violence in the country.
A recent poll sponsored by the Mexican newspaper El Universal shows that Calderon's approval rating remains at 41 percent. That's unchanged since February, despite his newly aggressive stance toward the U.S. Those polled listed the country's main problems as national security and jobs.
Correction: An earlier version of this post gave Calderon's approval rating as 32 percent. That is the approval rating of Calderon's Cabinet.

We Stand With Arizona, and Against Illegal Immigration Petition
http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/stand-with-arizona-and-against-illegal-immigration.html
Go Sign the Petition!
Arizona is besieged by illegal immigration--more people and drugs cross illegally into the United States through Arizona than any other state. And Arizonans suffer the massive levels of crime that go with it. Drug and human smuggling, extortion, kidnapping and murders. And the Federal government has done NOTHING to stop it.
Arizonans have had enough. They decided to stop waiting for the Feds to do what the Constitution mandates--to protect its citizens from external threats. So they passed legislation to help stop the robberies, shootings, rapes, kidnapping, murders, and madness.
This isn't about racism, or xenophobia, or "apartheid" or any of the other hysterical slanders the left has come up. This is about the safety and well-being of the citizens of the state. And its support was overwhelming: 70% of Arizonans supported it. And support is Bi-Partisan, with 84% of Republicans and 51% of Democrats in favor.
But some have now come out and called for a boycott of Arizona. Incredibly, even one of its own U.S. Representatives--Rep. Raul Grijalva has joined this call for a boycott--of his own state!

Burning our flag on Memorial Day!!!!!
This is just disgusting!
Flag Vandalism Mars Memorial Day in Several States

Christian Ashby, of Portland, Ore., holds an American flag that was vandalized outside of his home sometime late Saturday or early Sunday.
From Oregon to Minnesota to Ohio, vandals trampled on Old Glory over the Memorial Day weekend. In one Ohio town alone, approximately 25 American flags were found set ablaze on Monday.
At least one national veterans group called for those responsible for the "shocking and reprehensible" acts of vandalism to be quickly arrested and prosecuted.
Police in Wooster, Ohio, were going door-to-door early Tuesday in search of the people who torched roughly 25 flags and flagpoles along Saunders Drive and Morgan Street, Capt. John Quicci said.
"They were set on fire," Quicci told FoxNews.com, adding that an investigation is ongoing.
No suspects or motives had been identified, according to Quicci, who was unable to estimate damages to the 3-by-5-foot flags and the 10-foot metal poles placed outside of residents' homes by the annual Wooster Rotary Parade of Flags project.
The people who torched the flags face charges of criminal damaging and arson, Quicci said.
"We're treating this very seriously," he said.
In Minneapolis, a fire was set late last week to an American flag hanging outside a Marine veteran's home. The residence was spared and no injuries were reported, but the flag was destroyed.
Elizabeth Hawley said she found the ashes Thursday morning and called the act "very disturbing." She said her husband is keeping his feelings reserved, but she knows he's upset.
Hawley told the Minneapolis Star Tribune that she thinks the flag-burning was a random act of vandalism.
In Portland, Ore., Christian Ashby and his wife awoke Sunday to find their American flag torn down, covered in obscenities and burned outside their home, KPTV.com reported. Flying the flag has special meaning to his family, Ashby said.
"Well, we have some close relatives, especially my wife, who had a cousin who suffered from [post-traumatic stress disorder] and took his own life," Ashby told the website. "So, we have some very dedicated family to veterans of the United States services. So, it means a lot to us to fly the flag."
Ashby said a local man who served two tours in Vietnam loaned him another flag after posting news of the vandalism online.
Ryan Gallucci, a spokesman for AMVETS, a national organization representing 200,000 veterans, said he found the acts of vandalism "shocking and reprehensible," particularly on Memorial Day weekend.
"We absolutely condemn it," Gallucci told FoxNews.com. "Memorial Day is one of our country's most significant holidays and a chance to honor the men and women who sacrificed their lives for our freedom. For someone to desecrate the American flag on Memorial Day, it's unconscionable, it's unforgivable."
Gallucci called for quick closure to the ongoing investigations in at least three states.
"The people who are responsible for this need to be apprehended and held accountable for their actions," he said. "We shouldn't tolerate it, regardless of what the excuse is. We need to get to the bottom of it."
The Associated Press contributed to this report.
