Political Excess: Behind Nancy Pelosi's four days of revelry celebrating her speakership is a carefully crafted purpose. But if her background is any indication, all that public relations may end up backfiring. On one day, a street will be named after her in Little Italy in Baltimore, where her father served as mayor. On another, Tony Bennett will serenade her at an Italian Embassy banquet with "I Left My Heart in San Francisco." The Italian motif is apt, because the bacchanalia taking up most of next week in Washington will be a lot like the Roman Empire's legions marching into newly conquered territory: Pelosi's Democrats are letting America know there's a new boss in town.

Damn! I may never dine at Sabatino's or Villegia's again!
Just who the h$$$ does she think she is?
The queen! Off with their heads!
She is the Head of the People's House!
And she represents the Little People don't you know?
She's about to add 12 million slaves, er... Hispanics to the voter rolls. She knows damned well there's nothing you or I can do about it.
Pelosi can't possibly be Italian. She has no soul. And she probably wears ugly shoes. To match her face.
On the other hand, she is a fascist.
Talk about delusions of grandeur....
Caligulette.
Ok, the Republicans get tossed for indulging the excesses of government with their bloated budgets and increased government, so the Dems get elected and decide to celebrate their victory by INDULGING THE EXCESSES OF GOVERNMENT!!!!
What part of this picture did Nancy et al, miss???
She's already made 2 missteps and it appears that she intends to keep right on making them.
Why not have six days of celebration and then have her declared God?
Dear Lord, please limit the damage she and her cohorts plan to inflict on our beloved, God given Nation. Amen
I have a feeling we're going to hear a lot about Nancy "il Duce" Pelosi over the next couple of years.
they don't call her piglosi for nothing!!!!
Four days. Real full of herself, ain't she? For the good of the collective, of course.
"Pelosi's Democrats are letting America know there's a new boss in town."
Out here on the farm we call, "Here, Boss! Here, Boss!" at milking time. Think they mean the same thing? *SMIRK*
I loathe these people. I cannot WAIT to watch them eat one another alive, scrambling to the top of the manure pile. :)
Is "The First 100 Hours" over YET? *Rolleyes*
Before we get all carried away, I am pretty sure most of this wil be privately funded by the many Democratic billionaires.
Alright! Finally we get it: Another Lifelong Crooked Politician Named D'Alesandro Boulevard.
FWIW, our own FReeper Congressman Billybob was a neighbor of Nancy back then. Check out his article about it.
