Pelosi was asked a tough question by 60 Minutes?

I think the lip smacking is because her face is so numb from all the botox. She’s not sure if her mouth is open or closed without checking.

Well she sure looks surprised in that picture. Amazing look for a 70 some year old woman.

Visa IPO prices at record $17.9B
Credit card company’s initial public offering surpasses estimates at $44 a share.

By Katie Benner, writer-reporter

NEW YORK (Fortune) — Visa buyers paid a whopping $17.9 billion, or $44 a share, when the company priced its initial public offering Tuesday evening.

The number punctuated a Wall Street comeback that included another Federal Reserve rate cut, surprisingly strong earnings results from Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers, and a 420-point spike in the Dow, its largest one-day point gain in five years.

The San Francisco-based credit card processor became the largest IPO ever, surpassing the $11 billion record held by AT&T (T, Fortune 500) wireless as well as its own $37 to $42 a share price range.

Why do these old farts need so much money? If it’s because of their ‘grand-children’ - they should stop screwing up America and ensure their descendants will continue to live in a freedom loving Nation.

A better legacy than stolen wealth.

Pelosi and her husband were worth $70M as of 2010. Don’t know the current figure and the Occupy Wall Street crapdogs aren’t asking Her Majesty about it (”Marxist millionaires good; conservative millionaires bad”)..

Boxer once profited from exclusive IPOs

October 25, 2010 | Chase Davis, California Watch

UFor all of the ink and airtime devoted to criticizing Republican Meg Whitman’s stock deals, she’s not the only top-of-the-ticket candidate who benefited from early access to initial public offerings, or IPOs.

At least twice during her political career, U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer turned quick profits on IPOs that were unavailable to the general public, records and published reports show [PDF]. The transactions, which were made public in 1994 and 2000, allowed her exclusive access to several lucrative investments.

In one case, Boxer bought between $15,000 and $50,000 worth of shares in Palm Inc., the handheld computer company, at $38 apiece on March 1, 2000 – the day before the company was made public. On the first day of trading, shares soared to $140 before closing at $95. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley managed the offering.

Days earlier, she bought between $1,000 and $15,000 in stock from an online advertising and marketing company called Avenue A at its opening price of $24. Boxer sold it the next day when the share price tripled to $72.

She has to do that. After all the plastic surgery, if she doesn't keep smacking her lips, her face will roll-up like a window shade over the top of her head.

Pelosi filing shows financial disclosure loophole

A real estate investment by House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi’s husband went undisclosed for years and has opened a window into a loophole that allows House members to avoid specifying some of their financial assets.

In 2010 and 2011, Pelosi voluntarily reported the Sacramento, Calif., land investment as an asset of her multimillionaire husband, Paul. She had not reported the investment for about 10 years previously because it was held by an S corporation her husband had set up, said Nadeam Elshami, a spokesman for the California congresswoman.

Under House financial disclosure rules, lawmakers are not obligated to specify the separate assets of an S corporation — which is a business in which individual investors pay taxes on profits rather than the company.

Pelosi decided in 2010 to voluntarily disclose the investment because the land had become more valuable, Elshami said.

Pelosi first reported in 2010 her husband’s investment in Russell Ranch LLC. It was described then as undeveloped residential real estate in Sacramento worth between $1 million and $5 million. In 2011, she listed the value between $5 million to $25 million.

It's obvious her heart-rate and breathing change as the question is asked at approximately the 0:15 mark. An experienced lip-reader could probably read what she mouths at the moment just before she regains her composure. She then challenges her interlocutor and ends with typical Dem politician boiler-plate "we passed legislation" blah, blah, blah.

Where's there's smoke there's fire. Yay!

Pelosi looks like she’s suffered a meltdown every time you see her. How can you distinguish one incident from another?

Everyone knows these people were and are ‘on the take’... lining their own pockets. It’s just that the media may just be now catching up to their tricks.

The media's been ignoring it because she's a liberal Democrat. She and her husband have been making a fortune the past few years while the country's been going down the tubes. (And she still wanted a taxpayer funded passenger jet.)
