Nancy Pelosi for Minority Leader! (Kristol says, "Stand by Your Woman")
Weekly Standard ^ | 11/6/10 | Bill Kristol

Posted on 11/06/2010 7:14:36 AM PDT by truthandlife

HE WEEKLY STANDARD was already in good cheer after Tuesday’s election. But then came the news at the end of the week, as the magazine went to press, that Nancy Pelosi has decided to try to retain her position as the top House Democrat, and will stand for House minority leader in January. />

Now there are those, of a churlish disposition, who would note that Speaker Pelosi has presided over the largest loss of House seats by a party in a midterm election in 62 years. There are second-guessers who would question her strategy and tactics on the stimulus, cap and trade, and health care. There are Democrats tempted by the superficial attraction of a new face as leader of their party in the House. There are Democrats in swing districts who are tempted by the prospect of their party following a more moderate path. Indeed, there are defeated congressmen who—unjustly, to be sure!—actually blame the speaker for their soon-to-be unemployed status.

We urge Democrats to reject all such considerations and counsels. We urge the remaining House Democrats to keep Nancy Pelosi as their leader.

I have my doubts that she will try to retain her Dem leadership position.

It would be a double-whammy if she loses the House speakership and then loses the House Dem leadership.

Many Dems came out in opposition to her ‘leadership’, even before the election results were in.

For the first time in over a decade, Kristol and I are in total agreement:

“We urge Democrats to reject all such considerations and counsels. We urge the remaining House Democrats to keep Nancy Pelosi as their leader.”

I’ve developed basically the same strategy for the libbots in California. I thank them for electing two of the worse losers in America, Brown and Boxer, the B&B twins.

Whenever the B&B twins opened their lying/dumb mouths, the rest of America will see how evil and dumb the real left wingers are in America. When a liberal brags about electing these two losers, look them in the eyes and thank them for what will eventually destroy the rats as we know them.

These 2 losers and 2 more years of Lord OHaHa should basically destroy evil liberals in America.

I hope Nanny Pelosi stays and Olberman gets back on PMSNBC. That will cause the nation to continue to be highly focused on moving to the Right.

And when B&B come to the fiscally Republican controlled House of Rep, in DC to ask for a bailout of CA because it is going bankrupt the congress can say NO and Hell No. CA voters spoke and they want Brown and Boxer to get them out of the bankruptcy mess...Good luck CA!!

When the rest of the nation refuses to bailout California/NY/Nevada/?, the days of financial reality will hit these states like massive/repetitive hurricanes and tidal waves.

I'll second that AMEN, Brother!!! A little "Best Of" nancy ...

We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what's in it (away from the "fog" of my mind)

I was briefed, no, not briefed, about the brief, I mean ...

Nancy gets flustered when she's lying (so ... she's flustered all the time)

Greatest Hits

Nancy: my favorite word is 'word' (isn't it?)

It actually worries me that Pelosi is staying on. When 0bama picked Biden as his running mate, I thought, "The election is over - Republicans win. Biden's one of the stupidest people on earth".

Unfortunately Pelosi may stay and surprise all of us. You don't get to be the first female speaker of the House by being incompetent (at least, incompetent at politics).

Except that, there is some very serious skuttlebut that our government, as currently constituted (used to be constitutional) is already secretly bailing out some of the states!!!

Good to see the democrats are still on the goofy pills and it looks like they have a huge supply.

As my trophy wife says each day, “With the internet and instant news, there are no real secrets anymore. Somebody does something sub rosa, and the rest of the world will know about it.”
