Time Magazine's big sloppy kiss for Pelosi

"Nancy Pelosi leads the Democrats with a fiery style that could make her the first woman Speaker of the House"

She constantly discusses her five grandchildren, makes sure her office is stocked with Ghirardelli chocolates, perpetually smiles and never swears in a business in which almost everyone else does. She even has a few cute quirks she and her staff would love to tell you about: a diet consisting mostly of chocolate and chocolate ice cream, and so much energy, she rarely sleeps. Just the other night, she will tell you, she was up watching MTV after midnight.

MTV? Yeah. Right.

Would your grandmother ever say, "If people are ripping your face off, you have to rip their face off" (Pelosi's approach to handling attacks from Republicans)

No. no. I can say for a fact that my grandmother would never say that.

Among Democrats in Washington, Pelosi became popular for her prodigious fund raising on behalf of colleagues and her gracious manners; she's often the first person to send flowers if a member's spouse is sick. Staffers also enjoy her largesse. After a lavish meal, she will sometimes say, "Thank God for Paul Pelosi," her investment-banker husband, whose real estate holdings make up much of the couple's $16 million in assets.


Thank God for her husband? She can't afford these things on her own??? Where are the feminists??? Good grief!!! Plus, you gotta love these limo liberals who want us to have universal healthcare for example, because they themselves will never set foot in a public medical facility. If Nany Pelosi ever needed a serious operation, do you honestly think she would wait in line behind MaryJo Nobody? In the article she is so proud to have been a part of shooting down Bush's Social Security plan. And why not? She never has to worry about Social Security. It must be nice to propose things that you yourself will never have to worry about anyway.

Read the rest of the wet kiss. Hillary was last week, Pelosi this week.
