Hardly Anyone Noticed that I Was the First Woman Speaker."

You never shut your damn mouth long enough for anyone to have time to mention it.

We should give her a pity party.

Pity—pity—pity.

being the first woman to hold a position does not matter to anyone.. unless they are sexist otherwise, they see themselves as anyone else that has done the job before. obviously, nancy is a sexist. meanwhile, 0bama sees himself as the first black president... not the first president that happens to be black (ish) therefore, he is racist

Those two SHATTERED their glass ceilings in a HUGE WAY!

Pretty sad that the 1st woman speaker & the first "black" president turn out to be the WORST EVER for their respective positions.

I don't think we'll see anyone beat them out of their ranking for a LOOONNNGGG time, if we're lucky!

Now he’s on the cover of Time, and women are coming to me and saying, ‘Is the job less important when a woman holds it?’

No, Nazi, it isn't less important when a woman holds it. But it is less important when an ignorant, self-absorbed communist moron beyotch like yourself holds it.

Dang, that woman's dense.

We didn’t notice you were the first woman speaker because it’s not that important to us and no longer seems to an extraordinary achievement.

As Earl Stanley Gardner, creator of the famous fictional lawyer Perry Mason, would have answered Ms. Pelosi about her “Speaker femininity” statement: “You have assumed a fact not in evidence.”

I seem to recall much fanfare being made over that fact, and also her being made the minority whip and minority leader before that.

My recollection is that the media treated her becoming Speaker of the House as approximately twice as big a deal as the first moon landing.

“You have assumed a fact not in evidence.”

Either she or I need to watch some more B+W teevee.

Just because he wore a Bro (aka manzier), that doesn't mean anything!

Nancy Pelosi has done a disservice to many women by being in charge of the most corrupt Congress ever.

The liberals have out used the ( First woman this, first woman that card ) a long time ago just like the race hustlers have out used the race card.
Just like when someone yells " Racism " now, who cares !
