If Bill Clinton was Elvis, Hillary was the Statue of Liberty, inspired by Pelosi's triumph (more about that in a future story) and welcoming the huddled masses, who were pushing each other out of the way to take pictures with her. At night, we gathered at the National Building Museum for a celebration concert and Democratic Party fundraiser. Filmmaker Peter Kaufman, a friend of Christine Pelosi's, set the tone of the evening's festivities. He quoted someone else he'd heard that day: "She's the most powerful Italian since Caesar.''

Hey look gang! We got the sixties deadheads in charge.This is gonna be fun.
If she is Cesar, then who will be her Brutus? Et tu, Brutus.
I'll have what Leah's having, ahh, what the hell, make that a double!!!
I'm thinking that Jane Harmon will play the part of Brutus.

Peter Kaufman: "Let me make a motion that Pelosi is the most powerful Italian since Ceasar!"
Anton Scalia: "Overruled!"
LOL. She's a useless mindless airhead.
Albert "Caesar" Tocco.
All's fair in love and politics.
Good evening stranger
She's more powerful than Mussolini?
...only for conservatives. For liberals, caring is enough.
Thats ok.
The more she praddles on about her power, and the more her acolytes buy into it, the bigger her fall and failure will be.
In a few years, liberals will be cursing the name Pelosi.
So who gets to play Brutus?
It's just beyond parody. This dolt can't be serious. I'd rank Mrs. Pelosi right alongside Mussolini, myself. And, the only traits Hillary Clinton posseses, that are remotely comparable to the Statue of Liberty, would be her legendary prickliness and a certain stoney, inhuman quality in her eyes. At least the Statue of Liberty is a welcome sight, though.
haha.
While she is feeling powerful, someone should advise her to go for the gusto in '08 and run for Presidident.
Come on San Fran Nan, let's see how powerful you are!
Leaving aside a number of Roman emperors that were far more powerful than Julius Caesar (let's just say that "Caesar" covers all of them as it was part of the standard imperial title) then at the very least Pope Innocent III, Pope Gregory I, and Pope Leo III were more powerful. For that matter, Pope Innocent III was more powerful than Julius Caesar and probably the second most powerful Italian ever after only the Emperor Augustus.
