Who is Paul Pelosi? I've been trying to research this family the only thing I get about PP is a vague/shadowy "businessman", or "wealthy businessman".

I keep googling this "Paul Pelosi" and I think he is a business lawyer who was born in San Francisco, but let's get the DIRT on this family NOW!!!!!!

Senator Pardek found out that her family has mafia ties. Let's have MORE research going on here!!!

DIRT, let's dig it UP FReeper Researchers!

Maybe we should wait until AFTER she takes control of the house. We wouldn't want them to change their minds about selecting her... ;-)

I disagree, she's almost locked in. Throwing some dirt at her now would encourage Dems to turn on her before the vote, but not enough to actually matter. It would increase infighting within the Democratic party. If the Republican leadership has anything to use on her, they should use it now.

I know it is a pipe dream, but do you think the media will ever start noticing the hypocrisy of the Party of the People being led by the likes of Pelosi, Kennedy, Corzine, Dayton, Feinstein, Rockefeller, Kohl, Kerry/Heinz and Lautenberg? I don't see a single person in the Republican congressional leadership that is a multi-milionaire. J.C. Watts actually left the House because he needed to make money to send his kids to college. Marc Racicot refused to run for the Senate because he also needed to support a large family. But the GOP is still the Party of the Rich.

I think hammering on Pelosi as another of the Democrat's parade of limousine liberals is the best way to go after her. I mean, good old Denny Hastert could not be a better contrast! He is going to run rings around her because she cannot turn him into Newt Gingrich.

(we see the old democratic dirty tricks)

Politics consumed the Baltimore leader, so much so that his closest lieutenant described meetings at his party club as "political science lectures." Although a strong supporter of FDR and progressive Democrats, Pollack's interest was not in public policy, but in political power itself. The key to this power was commonplace: handouts and intervention with the government for the poor, patronage distributed to election workers in keeping with their achievements in winning votes, payoffs from businesses that wanted city contracts and favors, retribution for those who opposed him. Pollack established a frightening reputation for vindictiveness. "When you really got Jack angry and he wanted to dismiss you," his closest associate reported, "he would say goodby to you by saying, 'Good luck and best wishes.' It was like he was sitting Shiva."

By the 1950s, Pollack began to lose his voter base, as Jews and other whites took flight from Baltimore, and blacks rose in number, eventually becoming a majority of the city's population. A series of electoral battles ensued, with the first black success coming in 1954, as a young lawyer Harry A. Cole defeated the Pollack machine to become Maryland's first's black state senator. Pollack grudgingly tried to accommodate, slating a small number of receptive black candidates along with predominantly Jewish candidates, while challenging new voters and bringing white voters to the polls in Baltimore even after they had moved to the suburbs. The population tides eventually could not be held back; by the 1960s blacks leaders and machines replaced Pollock and took control of Baltimore's party organization and the city government.

From The Hill June 19, 1996 -- excerpted

Sen. Alfonse D'Amato (R-N.Y.), whose one-day, $37,000 profit on an initial public offering (IPO) trade in 1993 may spark an ethics committee investigation, isn't alone when it comes to making fast cash.

Three other lawmakers , Sen. Fred Thompson (R-Tenn.), Rep. John LaFalce (D- N.Y.) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) , all reported making thousands of dollars in gains off IPO trades, sometimes buying and selling the same day, The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday.

IPOs are hot stocks that investment companies usually save for their best customers, as they often produce quick , and hefty , returns.

Pelosi, whose gains were listed in the name of her husband, businessman Paul Pelosi, reported buying and selling between $1,000 and $15,000 worth of stock in two Internet-related companies in the same day. Both stocks doubled in value.

A spokesperson for Pelosi was not immediately available for comment.

Thanks for that information. She was there to dish whatever dirt she could happen to find or hear against Bush during the taping. I wondered also how it was that one of the reporters who broke the 24 year old DUI just happen to be one of the most outspoken idiots on Journey's with George during the whole taping.

That whole tape had meant to be a hit piece. Another arrow that couldn't hit it's mark by the leftists.

[oceanperch]

That is the film I watched this afternoon.
It was actually very good if you could stomach the typical moron doing of a liberal in this case being Andrea Pelosi.
Bush was good and I never had seen this personal side to him which made me like the man so much more.

[I_Love_My_Husband]

Hmmm, yes, that's what I was thinking when I read your article, and the REAL ESTATE thing caught my eyes. How con-veeeeenient that her hubby made millions in real estate!

This is real dirt. I know I can dig up past stuff on the Presidio and Pelosi. There was a HUGE CONTROVERSY here about the Presidio here if I recall! Something about selling our precious resource to Real Estate!

Hmmmmmmm Hmmmmmmm......

PELOSI FLUSH IN REAL ESTATE AND OTHER INVESTMENTS

The sumptuous California dream lives on with Rep. Nancy Pelosi.

Vineyards in Napa County, hundreds of undeveloped acres in Sacramento, a Santa Barbara resort, a condo in Alpine Meadows, and downtown San Francisco commercial real estate -- these are just some of the properties that the San Francisco Democrat shares with her husband Paul Pelosi, a successful businessman.

Contained in her financial disclosure statement as required by Congress, Pelosi's assets were made public on Friday.
The reports are intended as a way to prevent conflicts of interest in the legislative process and not as a means to determine net worth, so the actual value of investment income, assets and liabilities are broadly reported.
The combined net worth of Pelosi and her husband chalks in between $12.5 million to $45 million. Their outside income, derived from rents, interest, capital gains and dividends, is listed as between $863,000 to $6.4 million.

As a member of Congress, Pelosi earns $133,600 annually.
The bulk of the reported assets are identified as belonging to Paul Pelosi, with the exception of some stock equities and real estate that is listed as jointly held between the couple.

OMG, you live in in Lib Heck! Do you need a relief package? Maybe some barf bags?

[I_Love_My_Husband]

Yes, she is saying that though they are a married couple, he makes all the money, and she makes only a pittance compared with him.

She's lying, of course.

Nancy Pelosi's father was Mayor of MobTown (aka Baltimore).

Of the hundreds of Lexis hits on Paul Pelose, most of them concern him being reported upon in gossip columns for being a photogenic bon vivant making the CA scene. Sort of a west coast Vernon Jordan...

[I_Love_My_Husband]

Well...it's an eye opener! But we have some great farmers markets and great produce available here! :)

Of course, many of the buildings here are in serious decay....and it's almost impossible to find an apartment with a laundry in the unit...but....

it's home for now :)

The air is clean for a city (but don't talk to me about crime/general disgustingness of our streets! Yes, it makes me ill!!!)

[I_Love_My_Husband]

Interesting. I wonder if they have a Bill and Hill arrangement going there...

"I disagree, she's almost locked in. Throwing some dirt at her now would encourage Dems to turn on her before the vote, but not enough to actually matter."

I don't know...Folks here are pretty good with a shovel and it depends on how much dirt they dig up....

Hehe! I know, finding the dirt is F-U-N! It's Saturday night! It's what passes for fun for us net addicts!!!

Well of course. Being a member of congress gives one many, many financial opportunities.

I like this following one just for the comment about how he dresses her.

The San Francisco Chronicle SEPTEMBER 17, 1990 EXCERPTED

Joining the mayor in his box were Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi and her husband, Paul.

Pelosi, who was just named best-dressed in Congress by the Washington weekly Roll Call, wore high-waisted pants in a subtle plaid and a long-sleeve white linen shirt.

''I ironed it myself,'' she said.

Her husband, who chooses all of her clothes, looked equally elegant. He, too, wore high-waisted plaid pants, but with a short sleeve white cotton shirt.

The Presidio Trust Act, by Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco), desperately needed the support of environmentalists to win congressional approval.

The bill did something that had historically been considered anathema to environmental leaders: it turned control of a national park over to a private, unelected trust controlled by big businesses and real estate developers.

But Pelosi promised that this bitter pill would be coated in green: the park's general management plan, she insisted, would prevent the place from becoming an intensively developed office complex (see "Presidio Inc.," 1/12/94).

The Tides Foundation and the Energy Foundation, which were part of the first nonmilitary project at the Presidio, the Thoreau Center, were also key supporters of Pelosi's plan (see "Anatomy of a Sellout," 10/8/97). They all had sweetheart leases at the park – and neither they nor the groups they funded would utter a peep against the privatization of the park.

But now even they are taking issue with the direction the trust is taking. Friedman of Tides told us that the foundation's comments would be along the same lines as those of other environmental groups. And while the Energy Foundation isn't taking a position on the project, executive director Hal Harvey told us he personally opposes it. "I think the decision to develop that whole corner of the park is a big mistake," he said.

The Presidio Alliance, which represents the nonprofits located at the Presidio, is not taking an official position on the project. But it did send out a copy of the National Parks and Conservation Association's stated objections to the proposal.

At the time Pelosi's bill was going through Congress, critics pointed out that the bill gave the trust the ability to ignore the general management plan – and that, in fact, the bill turned the plan on its head by requiring the trust to make financial return the top priority for the use of park land.

[I_Love_My_Husband]

Interesting. I'm really curious to know what he looks like. With statements like those, I think he might be gay.
