Boehner has stock in BP, other oil companies
When her day job as House speaker ends, Nancy Pelosi might one day retire to her vineyard in Napa Valley.
Annual financial disclosure reports released Wednesday show that most congressional leaders have built up nice nest eggs, including investments worth millions, to see them through when they finally give up their hold on political power.
Mrs. Pelosi can repair to her vineyard in St. Helena, Calif., valued at between $5 million and $25 million, that she owns with her wealthy real estate-magnate husband, Paul. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid could return to Searchlight, Nev., site of some of his many mining claims he valued at well over $1 million.

Pretty darned uneasy sitting next to someone whose mom is helping run the country into the ground. On a personal level, she was cordial enough in small talk, and I never let on that I knew who she was. But, really, the very proximity gave me the willies the entire flight.
Does anybody know the name of the wine from her vinyard? I would surely love to avoid it like the plague.
In the meantime, I firmly believe that God blesses some people on earth, waaaaayyy beyond what we think such an evil person deserves, because He knows it is the only time in eternity that He will have the chance to bless them.
The only place Nancy Pelosi is going to retire to is a jail cell.
I bet we wouldn’t even have to lift a rock up to find the horrid stench of corruption infested in her.
...and may it happen soon!
“Theres a reason she has the best security that money can buy...”
Very astute observation on your part. Last night I commented to my wife about the news story re: Pelosi getting a new $18K per month office in SF. I said she was probably doing that because it afforded her better security.
Semper Fi,
Eloquently stated, shibumi. And, judging from many seniors I’ve seen who finally reach retirement, there is NO guarantee that anyone will retire with their MIND intact, even if the BODY is perfectly healthy. All the botox and the best medical care in the world cannot stave off the inevitable. Of course, I’ve seen mental deficiencies in Piglosi for a long, long time. I’d think retirement for her would be a lonely, miserable existence without a country to control.
Thanks for the compliment.
That’s exactly what I was thinking of when I wrote that post. She (and so many others) will, when they retire, face a hellish future of mental instability.
The reality of irrelevance does not sit well in the megalomaniac mind.
Maybe I should work on my tolerance and forgiveness, as my kids go to school barefoot and lacking testbooks in a few years. Oh, and learning to speak Chinese from our new masters.
>Oh, and learning to speak Chinese from our new masters.
Interesting you should mention this; in [Imperial] China the traditional penalty for malfeasance/corruption was death, IIRC.
