House Speaker Nancy Pelosi blasted Sen. Joe Lieberman on Wednesday for making what she called "totally irresponsible" remarks about Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and warned that the Senate might retaliate by revoking Lieberman's committee chairmanship.
Pelosi also chastised some of Hillary Rodham Clinton's supporters for being "less than gracious" toward Obama, although she praised the New York senator for rallying behind the party's nominee after a bitter primary fight.
Pelosi's remark in an interview with KGO Radio talk show host Ronn Owens in San Francisco is certain to anger Clinton backers, including some who are pushing to have Clinton's name placed into nomination at the party's convention in Denver later this month. But the House speaker's rebuke of Lieberman, the Connecticut Democrat-turned-independent, is likely to please Democratic activists, who are irate at Lieberman's sharp jabs at Obama.

How’s the book sales going, Nancy?
Pelosi is simply looking for an appointment to Obama’s staff if he is elected. She was elected as Speaker because no one else wanted the job. Pelosi is simply a whipping post.
Last time I looked, she had no power in the senate!
I think the power has gone to her head. I believe she thinks the world revolves around Nancy.
Nancy Pelosi is the reason why women should never wear a thong that is four sizes too small.
I've been glued to the TV watching the Olympics. These young athletics with their grace, talent and pride in America are going to make the DEMS look like a bunch of cry-baby, egocentric, self-serving b*stards. Team work is beyond the DEMS comprehension.
However, my Plasma light bulb will be doing double time this month!

—————————————————————————>
The only thong Nancy should be wearing is between her toes.
The media plays up the RINOs for Obama (including a staffer of Jumpin Jim Jeffords) but has blackout on news of Democrats for McCain, oh wait, Lieberman is a FORMER Democrats.
Tell Pelosi to stick a sock in it.
Wonder when Joe will learn.
I also wonder when I will get my warning for being “less than gracious” to the pinhead.
Rush played the clips...Queen Bee syndrome.
They already tried that? Oh, never mind.
Aw, she’s just pissed off because her book sales are in the toilet.
I believe you’re right, she has reminded us on several occasions she is third in line for the ‘Presidency’ (which I’m pretty sure she has confused with ‘a throne’
Peloosi intent on driving L to the Rs.
Too bad he didn’t have the integrity to jump to the Rs and really make a difference. That said, it is so nice to see how he’s driving the dems crazier than ever.
You are a rank amateur compared to Hillary in the threat department.
Oh, by the way, your book makes GREAT outhouse material.
The bitchy trampoline has spoken
Today Pelosi’s going to save the planet. Last week she was Joan of Arc.
Most of this country is still pre 9-11. While we play political games, our enemies plan our destruction.
I can’t wait until obama kicks pelosi under the bus.
“Last time I looked, she had no power in the senate!:
LOL - good one, LT! (or maybe she does by proxy, via reciprocity between her and Reid:-))) She has WAY too much power in the house, that she abuses shamefully to the detriment of the American people. Ditto for scumbag Reid in the senate. And look at how he’s hurting his backyard constituents - he’s another one totally against drilling or doing anything possible to provide relief, yet his state, Nevada and Las Vegas (where he’s from) in particular, are suffering badly from the drastic reduction in tourist trade due to gas prices.
If these traitorous politicians aren’t living in a perpetual state of hiding, I hope the voters back home are hammering them every chance they get.
Joe just needs to remind Nancy that he is no longer a Democrat. Then he needs to tell her to take a long walk off a short pier.
“she has reminded us on several occasions she is third in line for the ‘Presidency’
yeah, and you know that’s why she made the statement early on (gritting her teeth, no doubt) that she wouldn’t allow the subject of impeachment (of GW and Cheney)to be introduced. That would have been WAY too obvious, even for her :-)))
but you know she’d secretly love nothing better.
So brother wacko Dennis Kucinich took up the banner by demanding preliminary hearings.
“When democrats work with republicans they are called “traitors”.
when democrats work with republicans they are called urban myths - nonexistent.
I hope Lieberman bolts the Dems and gives the Senate to the Repubs, if only for a few months. Reid would have a stroke.
