Nancy Pelosi’s paean of humility
Friday, 5 January 2007 | 368 readers so far
I listened to the excerpts from Nancy Pelosi talking about how the Democrats will turn America into a nirvana for everyone. Yeah, right.
She seemed particularly excited about her own importance as a woman and kept referring to how historic it was that SHE is now the third most powerful person in government here in the United States. True to form, the fawning mainstream media poltroons are eating this drivel up:
A new chapter of American history was written Thursday when California’s Nancy Pelosi was formally chosen as the first female speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives. It’s taken more than 200 years for “the marble ceiling,” as Pelosi and others described, to be shattered by a woman. But it happened as the 110th Congress convened, making the San Francisco Democrat next in the presidential line of succession after the vice president.
But wait, there’s more:
“Becoming the first woman speaker will send a message to young girls and women across the country that anything is possible for them,” Pelosi said before being sworn into office.
The only signal I get from this “momentous” event is that women are just as eager to control my life with every means possible via the mechanism of big government as men are. We’re supposed to celebrate that, but I cannot figure out why. Women have been making strides for decades now. I’ve had women bosses in the private sector, the military, and of course, in married life. I don’t need Nancy Pelosi helping out while crowing about how historically significant she is. No one in their 30’s who has been a professional in any venue has a hard time understanding the women in the United States have a pretty equal playing field with men both in business and legally speaking. So please shut up, Nancy. You’re a two-bit politician and you haven’t done anything to improve my life that I am aware of.
If you must insist on continuing to speak, try and talk in terms that resonate with standard issue run of the mill Americans. Otherwise, you’re just going to end up being as hated as every other politician running around the arrogant ant hill called Washington, D.C. Thanks for not listening to what I have to say, you self-congratulatory idiot.

I can understand how you feel Iris. In war, both sides do terrible things. On the whole though, I think the U.S. and coalition forces are much more compassionate than the military and power structure they replaced.
As far as a “free” Arab world goes, I think that the Arab world enslaves itself more than any outside forces.
Iris, it is interesting to me that you live in Amsterdam, which has a lot of freedom compared to most Arab countries. Why are you there instead of in an Arab country, if you think they have so much to offer?

Whoever iris is, her bloom has long since faded. I don’t see her POV at all. If shreiking were manure, she has overdosed on her own fertilizer.
Trevor, there has been a lot written about Ms Pelosi’s celibrations but I am inclined to accept that she is genuinely pleased with her new role and entitled to this period of celebration.
Personal accomplishments should be recognized by ourselves and our colleagues. I would give her a pass on this and wait to see how she confronts the natural struggle between the whitehouse and congress. Can she lead the House to do the right things even when they want to do the wrong? We will see soon…

Well I know you got rid of Iris.. but I find the comments interesting.
Such as the use of the word Viva. Hmm.. spanish, Espanol statemennt for suppot of Arabs, Osama Bin Laden, Jihad..
Apparently Iris is like many in the world, just trying to get a rile of Americans by using another phrase from another language.. how quaint

Iris is making the rounds to several military blogs spewing the same stuff on each post.
As for Pelosi, from her own words all I see is another self congraulatory twit, who is hellbent on dividing this country even further.

Oh I can understand being mad at Americans, but being completely repetitive and off topic with no real point gets irritating quick…
Hope all my regulars here started off the new year healthy, hopeful and happy.

Hi Trevor! I know this sounds crazy, but, Iris really looks like a fake. Someone paid to just spew hatred to get it right back. Feed the flame. I don’t know. Glad you didn’t fall into that trap, respect for that.
