Ok, it's confession time for me.
I'm not an idiot, really I'm not, but I've seen this cartoon posted several times now and I simply do not understand it.

If Democrats take over the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi will not just be the first female Speaker of the House.
She will be the richest.
By far.
The liberal Center for Responsive Politics pegs Pelosi's net worth as being somewhere between $14,746,108 and $55,085,000.
Gee, remember how libs got all over Gingrich for his $2 million book advance? Of course, no one said squat when Hillary took an $8 million book advance.
Pelosi and her husband have vast real estate holdings in San Francisco, where the liberals cry all the time for affordable housing for the working class.
That makes her the 9th richest member of the House.
Actually, I point all this out to show what a phony-baloney Pelosi is on the subject of "tax cuts for the rich." She is rich. To my knowledge, she never voluntarily paid a dime extra in federal income taxes.
UPDATE: Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid ranks 31st among senators with a net worth of $2,235,107 to $5,179,000.
Apparently Reid hung up the phone on an AP reporter when asked about, as AP put it, “a $1.1 million windfall on a Las Vegas land sale even though he hadn't personally owned the property for three years, property deeds show.”
It is an intriguing little story involving Reid’s old protege, Clark County Commission chairman Dario Herrara. Better make that ex-chairman. He was convicted in May. He was sentenced to 50 months.
Speaking of crooks (Herrera, not Reid) William Jefferson, D-La., ranked 149th among House members with a net worth of $842,006 to $1,730,000. Don’t know if that included his $90,000 in frozen assets.
Culture of corruption. Gotta remember that line.

The joke is that " Mommy also has cheap, meaningless sex."
and that Mommy is raising children with the same lack of self respect with no values.

what a great Caption/Photo-Shop opportunity!
Does anyone recall reading that Pelosi has interests in a few hotels that don't use union labor?
Speaker Pelosi: "I'm the richest and the bitchest. Suck on that Republicans."
The liberal Center for Responsive Politics pegs Pelosi's net worth as being somewhere between $14,746,108 and $55,085,000.
I am in the WRONG line of work! Heck for 14 million I'll stand up and make a fool of myself!
Say what you will, she may be easy, but she's not cheap.

There is this, but I lost the link :
" Nancy Pelosi and her husband also own a chain of restaurants and a hotel in Napa Valley, California.
Despite her public commitment to the Hotel Employees & Restaurant Employees Union, you better not join that union and work for the Pelosi's, because you will end up getting fired. "
" this witch is the same women who owns more then a few vineyards in Napa Valley and will only hire non-union firms to pick their grapes. Why? Because they don't have to pay a "living wage" to the workers then.
She also owns a large stake in the ritzy hotel in Napa called Auberge du Soleil. All employee's are non-union.
She is also a partner in the restaurant chain Piatti…again, all non-union. "

" Typical liberal. Do as I say, not as I do. "
Here is list of the losers ( sorry pdf )

· Staunch union supporter Rep. Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) has received the Cesar Chavez Award from the United Farmworkers Union. But the $25 million Northern California vineyard she and her husband own is a non-union shop.
The hypocrisy doesn't end there. Pelosi has received more money from the Hotel Employees and Restaurant Employees union than any other member of Congress in recent election cycles.
But the Pelosis own a large stake in an exclusive hotel in Rutherford, Calif. It has more than 250 employees.
But none of them are in a union, according to Schweizer, author of "The Bushes: Portrait of a Dynasty" and a regular contributor to the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and other periodicals.
The Pelosis are also partners in a restaurant chain called Piatti, which has 900 employees. The chain is - that's right, a non-union shop.

Republicans are not going to stay away. This is something the liberal media is pushing.
I have not seen a shred...even a single one that conservatives are going to stay home.
Great research. Thanks. Maybe she needs to be the subject of a YouTube video sing-along.
bump for publicity
hrrumph....so I disappear for a few days and look what I miss...
Actally, there were several other good photoshops that I posted weeks ago (when the book was announced/came out).
My favorite hypocrite:

Excellent. I had forgotten about this :
" the Mellon Bank's $12.8 million appraisal of Mr. Kerry's house on Boston's Beacon Hill — substantially higher than the city's $6.95 million property-value assessment..."
