At the California Democratic Party Convention, Nancy Pelosi was introduced to the podium as not only the historic “first female Speaker of the House, but the greatest Speaker of the House” of all time. That’s an interesting choice of words.
She begins her speech proud that she and fellow Democrats made health care a “right.” She thanked allies of democrats, including the labor community who made health care ” a priority for decades.”
The audience, en masse, applauds her mentions of health care but not as loudly as some other issues. One audience member screamed out “universal, single health care for all.” Judging from the audience, for some of her ilk, Pelosi did not go far enough.
Pelosi claims the health reform is also entitlement reform because it saves tax payer money. That claim needs a fact check.

I suspect that the smell of dope filled the room.
>>That claim needs a fact check.
That’s just crazy-talk. Everyone knows that you only fact-check CONSERVATIVES and SNL!
You forgot the Barf Alert.
Note: The above link contains an extremely offensive (to some) but hilarious adult reference to Queen Nancy.
she isn’t even the greatest Democrat Speaker. I refer you to THE Speaker, Sam Rayburn of Texas
LLS
this person shouldn’t drive......and I hate to tell you what I thought this cartoon was really a picture of at first
I’m sure Nancy will enjoy flying commercial after this November.
She Is such a great speaker that she asked the very competent and loyal commander of our brave and loyal American troops if he betrayed us.
Nancy, many of us know who really betrayed us.
I was just watching Pataki on C-Span. He would make a great President.
Yeah.....That’s why she has to have the largest security detail of any Speaker, to protect her from...the People.
She will only be Speaker for a,little while only.
Then she goes back to being den mother to San Francisco’s homo population.
You’ve just put me off breakfast.
“Greatest of all time”? If you measure the degree of greatness of speakers of the house by an odd hissing sound that they make, intertwined with a soft grunting groan issued through a smeared smile and inserted into the pauses of their speeches then, yeah, I’d call her the greatest.
Highly unlikely that Pelosi will ever come out ahead of Tip O’Niell (also a Democrat) who actually DID reach across the aisle and worked with Ronnie to strengthen this country instead of weaken it. This honor will NEVER belong to a polarizing figure (whose approval rating is in the single digits) like Pelosi, Unless we jusdge this honor by disdain for the people and pushing an agenda with little respect for her country and it’s people. If judged that way, she comes out clearly ahead of all Speakers of the House.
........if you like communists, that is
