Gotta admit, love her or hate her, Nancy gets shit done....

[scheming daemons]

Being a Democratic Speaker is historically like herding cats.... but she's shown an adeptness for it.

[ixion]

1. Yeah, like holding the neocons accountable for war crimes... oh wait

that's right, accountability is "off the table," but apparently a massive new revenue stream for the insurance industry is not. :eyes: :puke:

[nebenaube]

3. what you said...

I echo...

[xultar]

4. Not up to her. Obama doesn't have the stomach for it. If he did she would

[ixion]

8. Balderdash... if it's not up to her, then why did she make an issue of saying it was off the table?

which distinctly implies there is an "on the table" option.

[Radical Activist]

12. It's not the Presidents role.

It really should be the role of Congress to investigate Executive war crimes. Especially when Bush was still President. Its one of those checks and balances.

[xultar]

2. I loves me some Nancy Pelosi, always have.

[mopinko]

5. oh at the risk of getting my post deleted

(tho i do mean it in the nicest, most respectful way)
bitch gets things done.

[tishaLA]

10. +1

[left coaster]

13. Testify! nt

[Chisox08]

17. Yeah because that whole Bush Impeachment thing wen so well.....

Oh wait it was off the table as was single payer and a strong public option. But if handing the Insurance parasites millions of new victims I mean customers then she gets things done.
If they think that the Health Care fight is over then they got another thing coming. Single payer nonprofit Health Care is the best solution to our Health Care problem and I'm not giving up until we get it.

[mopinko]

24. well, i hope you are a very, very young man

cuz i do not think it will ever fly in this country.

[Chisox08]

26. I'm in my mid twentys

So they are going to hear for me a long time.

[HeresyLives]

6. Dems should regard her as a national treasure.

This was a remarkable feat, and a huge step forward.

[cynatnite]

7. She certainly got the job done. n/t

[Skittles]

9. shit

yes

[Rage Inc.]

11. Yea verily!

[Swamp Rat]

14. KICK ASS Nancy!!

:patriot:

[treestar]

15. Exactly! Much harder than being a Repuke speaker!

Who has lockstep guaranteed!

[99 Percent Sure]

16. She's been on fire since the day after the 2006 mid-terms,

when she squelched her own party enemies (see Harman, Jane) when the late Murtha made a half-hearted run for her historic Speaker seat.

I too was riled at her imperialist pronouncement that impeachment was off the table. I've since forgiven her.

She's redeemed herself sufficiently for me because she's been handling her/our biz since 11/2006; for the most part, keeping her recalcitrant dems in line when it comes to voting.

She's way more gutsy--and wily--as a party leader than Reid will ever be.

[stuball111]

18. Me LOVES Nancy...

Don't know why, but I like her, possibly because I think she's a great thorn in the republicans collective asses!:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[left coaster]

19. She's got a vagina and a set of brass balls..

This confuses and intimidates the Repugs greatly. :)

[upi402]

20. tru dat k/r n/t

[Historic NY]

21. She seems very methodical..I bet she writes lots of notes , my aunt did the same thing..

she was a political operative. I recall walking into a town office an instantly spotted her hand writing page after page of writing.

[Mojeoux]

22. I love her

"Oh San Francisco Girls with 'San Francisco' ways!"

[derby378]

23. Problem is, she gets the WRONG shit done

Fancy Nancy had to help sell out women across America to get this travesty passed.

[joe black]

25. Shit is right.

[Scurrilous]

27. K & R

:thumbsup:

[WindRiverMan]

28. I disagree ,

Nancy and her counterpart Mr. Harry Reid are ineffectual leaders at best, and the only reason that this got passed was Obama using the bully pulpit. If the Republicans had a sixty seat majority in the Senate and one in the House, you can bet your britches that one year later, you would be leaving for Canda.

[MissMarple]

29. I first saw her with Maxine Waters on Tweety some years ago. They were awesome.

They gave the phrase "iron hand in a velvet glove" real meaning. I was left with the thought, always be on their side. They were bitch slapping some goppers on the show, in a lady like way, of course. What a joy to watch.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

30. Yeah, like forcing the Progressive Caucus to accept Republican-inspired measures

That kind of "getting shit done" we can do without.

Now getting the DINOs to accept a public option open to all comers, a Medicare buy-in, or single-payer? THAT would be an accomplishment worth celebrating.

Otherwise, she is the biggest disappointment the Progressive Caucus has ever produced.

[PeaceNikki]

31. Did you see this?
