Thanks to the GOP, Laura B. could prefer Michelle’s company at the funeral. But naw, she’d much rather be associated with that pretty, intelligent, and glamorous girl, dammit I can’t remember her name; you know the glamorous 3rd wife of what’s his name. Michelle isn’t nearly as glamorous.
Funny thing is, should the Democrats nominate Santa Claus, or JHC or Moses, Republicans would castigate him just as much as they revile Nancy. And Lisa Benson republican troll;, Lisa Benson, would lead the band.
We can agree in respect that Pelosi has to go. Pelosi served her country well, but now is the time for the next generation to lead the way toward their future, not be hindered by 20th century ideas and practices. Leave the antiquated thinking to the Republicans. The new generation of Democrats will walk right over them into the future.
Nancy Pelosi is the best one for the job of speaker. The fact that she has met and dealt with Dump is a real plus. We don’t need a neophyte now, or ever. When we have taken back the Senate and the White House, then we can think about a newcomer to the post.
The Republicans demonize effective Democrats because it works. Hillary was investigated by one Republican committee after another for decades, for everything including murder. It was eventually proven that she used her cell phone for semi classified information, which apparently was a crime until Ivanka also did it, at which point it was suddenly considered to be irrelevant. But, it worked. When you turn on the TV day after day and listen to what Hillary is being investigated for now, eventually people start thinking that if there is that much smoke there must be some fire somewhere. So, when she ran for president, she only got three million votes more than our current “president”. By that time, a large percentage of voters disliked Hillary, though they couldn’t tell you why.
Let the Republicans demonize Pelosi. She isn’t going to run for president, and she’s used to the Republican crap because she knows she is in a position where they can’t do her any harm.
Running scared, little Lisa Benson, of one of the most effective Speakers in recent memory? Of course you all don’t want her – she’ll get actual progressive bills, with popular and common sense objectives passed and the Republican senate will look so bad when they vote them down. I can’t wait! hahahaha
Interesting to me that most of the opposition to Ms. Pelosi is not from the newcomers. Hmm. Methinks I smell an attempt by the right to force the left into brangling with itself rather than getting on w/ business.

Lisa, spouting the conserves’ ‘everyone hates’ Nancy line. But it is the repubs who hate Nancy because she actually gets things done.

True ego-less leadership is hard to find among politicians, it seems …

Could be worse. Could be somebody like Sarah Palin. Oh wait, she lost, didn’t she? Wonder how that view of Russia from her house looks now?

Lisa repeating the tired GOP demonization of Pelosi! Perhaps she should be writing odes to Ryan, Boehner, Gringrich and Hastert instead!

She is actually not very smart. Why do they keep choosing her? Imagine her as president. She would sink the country.

The Dems that said they would not vote for Nancy Pelosi are further to the right. This is NOT what the voters wanted.
