Pelosi: Democrats ready to lead 08/11/2006 - 17:39:25

Set to become the US' first female speaker of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi says Democrats are "ready to lead" in partnership with Republicans, "not in partisanship".

President George Bush called Pelosi with congratulations this morning after Democrats took firm control of the House, rebounding after a dozen years in the minority.

Pelosi, 66, who made history four years ago when she became the first woman to lead a party caucus in either house of Congress, will become third in line of succession to the president when she is elevated to the speaker's position at the beginning of the new Congress in January.

It will be the highest elective office ever reached by a woman in the US.

Pelosi will be formally re-elected as her party's leader, and its nominee to be speaker, when the Democratic caucus meets on November 16 to choose its standard-bearers for the next Congress.

Democrats, Pelosi said, "intend to lead the most honest, the most open and the most ethical Congress in history".

Oh that would be ripe.

Barney Frank's lovers prostitution ring should be probed as well.

That crook Jefferson should not even be seated but the RATS will turn a blind eye.

After all, their #2 ranking member for Intelligence (Hastings) was only impeached from the bench. But like a good Rat, he ran for Congress.

This is just the House. The transgressions of the criminal democrats in the Senate make the Dim Rats in the House look like altar boys.

Just the thought of that drunken murdering idiot Kennedy having any power is revolting.

Stupid RATS. There's not many of them in the leadership without severe ethical issues. Pelousy should STFU. Perhaps the mixture of the Botox and the prospect of power has the Wicked Witch of the West a little too gleeful.

Seeing Pelosi with all that body hair gives me the shivvers.

Have you noticed that "Pelosi" alerts the spell-checker on FR?

Reminds me of a grade school election.

"We're going to have the BESTEST, most ETHICAL Congress ever!"

You must have a sense of ETHICS before you can proceed to be ETHICAL. What part of this doesn't Nancy get?

Bobby Gates' nickname at the CIA was The Little Prick. He is a pompous, incompetent, squishy witless fool. He is the total tool of the Jimmy Baker-Brent Scowcroft crowd that so horribly ran foreign affairs for GW's daddy. To put such a man in charge of the Pentagon - the one bastion of pro-Americanism remaining in our foreign policy establishment - is an unmitigated catastrophe.

She'll be rueing that statement inside of a year.

Why? Libs skate every time. Every week a lib is indicted or investigated for something. It just get glossed over.

Exactly! I saw him say it, "this is going to be the most ethical administration in history". It turned out to be the most corrupt - and it's still corrupting our entire system to this day.

When I heard her say this I just stared at the radio and questioned if my ears were on the right way. I couldn't believe it!

Then, in searching for the quote, I found it from Ireland!

Do you think that the press is hiding something?

So true, and it certainly factors into these elections.

Unfortunately, the future does not bode well in that regard, when a week or so ago on News Watch they debated "Does the media have a liberal bias?". That debate should have been concluded twenty years ago.
