and he saw Nancy sitting in the big Chair. I said that's right, that is the Madam Speaker.

and prime ministers, we got our first woman speaker, we have to play catch up now. It is about time. Thank goodness.:woohoo:

8. Woohoo! Five years ago - this would have seemed a pipe dream

had anyone suggested Pelosi would rise through the ranks so far, and that the dems would take back over to = Speaker Pelosi!

10. My thoughts

while watching today , could she possibly become our first woman President? Such an historic day and fun to watch. Except for alot of real glum faces of the men on Repub side!!

17. I just had a thought.

The thought of Speaker Pelosi smacking Boehener in the head with the gavel. Yeah, I know. It's an evil thought. I can't wait until the State of the Union address. The VP will have to sit next to Speaker Pelosi. That should be interesting.
