I join many posters in a skeptical view of Speaker Pelosi.  What power? 

The war in Iraq over?  Financial system regulated to a reasonable extent?  No child really left behind?  The country’s ports secure?  Chemical plants attack-resistent?  Federal budget near solvency? 

The Democrats have a very short window in which to prove they can govern better than the Republicans ruled.  Soon-President Obama will be like Reagan - all teflon, nothing bad will stick.  But Congress .... If the Dems don’t put forward a united policy agenda that actually helps Americans in the near term,  they’ll be toast as fast as vp candidate Palin

I wish Sheehan had won.

Enough of the breathless revisionist history. Pelosi has been a timid girl—evidenced by the scared deer-in-the headlights nervous look. She has asked for nothing, gotten less and given away more.
It was she that stated that “impeachment was off the table” claiming the country didn’t have the appetite for it after the country voted in the Democrats to oppose the runaway Republicans. Later, on “The View”, when confronted, Nancy responded, “If anyone can show me evidence of a crime…”
Congressional ratings are dismal, not because of the party leadership, but because the leadership was delinquent in doing their constitutional mandate.
  She is a disgrace to this country.

Nancy Prance wants war and more war. Bushco style war with loads of gristle. Blood flowing freely and filling the trough. Mounds of dead children and rotting cadavers. Nancy Prance is that classically defined princess of ghoul. War ghoul. Nancy Prance likes that war profiteering same as her home-girl Dianne Feinstein. Feinstein taught the Nancy Prance quite adeptly. War is profit and more profit is grand. Come on Amerika, give up those children of yours and let’s make war for a fiscally sound future. Nancy Prance dances naked by the light of a nuclear conflagration.

Do you think Pelosi… using all her power could find it in her soul to pass HR 676?  Just as a signatory gesture to the unwashed masses’ taxpayer dollars? 

How many more thousands will be REQUIRED TO DIE OR NEEDLESSLY SUFFER before taxpayers dollars are allocated back to the payers?

GOOD! Get George and Dick behind bars and make it snappy.

If Nancy is so powerful and wants out of Iraq, why are we still there?

Too bad she wants so little; not living wages, not an immediate end to the war, not impeachment, not economic justice, not fair trade, not civil liberties or civil rights.  What she wants is to raise money to win more elections for dimrats, but that won’t last forever.

Her husband is a billionaire business man.  She’s everything that’s wrong with the democratic party.  Her worst nightmare is a bad hair day.  My congressman lives under her desk and doesn’t come out until he’s told to.  How did she gain control of the House?

Pelosi is nothing but a republican. All her actions from 2006 through the bailout debacle to now is nothing but placating corporations, just what the country does NOT need.
