1. For going on 70 Nancy is a beaut.

Oh yeah, she's pretty good at her job.

[tblue37]

10. She really is a nice looking lady, isn't she. nt

[lib_wit_it]

15. Right on both counts, It's so disgusting the way she is targeted by the RW. And Bill Maher, as well.

If she were unattractive they'd ridicule her for that. And, of course, no RW "feminists" come to her defense and cry sexism as they do regarding *any* criticism of anything related to poor little defenseless Scary Palin.

16. Lucrative lobbying futures for all! Wooohooo!

I'm sure those stock portfolios will be increasing tomorrow too.

[Inuca]

26. Yep, I am sure that's why

Pelosi looks so happy. Dingle too. You nailed it.

[SeattleGirl]

17. All great pics, but I LOVE that first one!

"So, a black man and a woman walked into the House of Representatives...." and all we got is a solid start for HCR!

[ProgressOnTheMove]

18. I love the one with the kiss, send her one from me repectfully on the cheek. :)

19. Where are the republicans?

I bet they were back in their plush offices trying to explain to their bosses(the insurance companies and the drugs thugs )why they lost,but they should keep the money flowing because there will be other battles to be fought against the interest of the american people.

[glowing]

20. The ins and pharma didn't lose. They got their's and without a public option

as a competition to keep them in check. the pharma got a back door deal with the white house early on (or they would really be screaming) and the ins co's got a mandated clientel of young healthy people... along with no way to keep their prices from increasing. I don't think anyone's ins. premiums are suddenly going to decrease..

[NYC Liberal]

21. Except they did, and they are screaming.

Have been for months now.

[glowing]

22. No, that was to keep the public option out (ie screaming socialism)

And from having reform in pharma costs.. There was a bill to let Canadian drugs be imported for the cost reductions (its gone). Competition for fair was what they were after (that's why all the b.s. about needing 60 votes and all-- remember, couldn't have the public option because they needed 60 votes and they weren't there-- reconciliation was the "remedy" for getting the Public Option-- because of Brown, they have to use it any way.. so where's the public option?)

Its all a game.. keep everyone looking over here, while they play over there. Most of politics is about distraction and division. Its a game to most of them. Some do think of the consequences, but many of these people are wealthy already. They don't understand what their games do to actual people. They could never, I repeat, never, live on their definition of poverty. They couldn't live on the amt of food stamps they deem is "enough". They could never live on minimum wage. AND most definately, most of them have never had to deal with ins. co's b.s. They have the best and have the money and the name recognition.

23. Awesome! NT

[Jennicut]

24. This must be said: John Dingell is adorable!

I just want to give him a hug. He waited a long, long time to see this happen.


Here he is with President Kennedy.

[Phx_Dem]

25. Awesome to see all those happy faces. Dingell looks ready to burst!

[Inuca]

27. They all have great smiles, but I agree

Dingle's stood up for me as well.

28. Who's the guy kissing Pelosi & De Lauro? n/t
