House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, in a post-inauguration interview with Bay Area reporters Wednesday, said she will move far-reaching climate change legislation this year, but opposes - at least for now - the idea of Congress approving another costly bailout for troubled banks.
The San Francisco Democrat, arguably the second most powerful person in Washington, with immense power to shape the legislative agenda, sought to tamp down expectations about how quickly Congress and President Obama will address vexing problems, from a weak economy to an ailing health care system.
"We can't fix it all overnight," she said from her Capitol office overlooking the Mall, "but we have to begin."
Pelosi said one of her favorite moments from Inauguration Day was when Marine One lifted off the Capitol grounds, signifying former President George W. Bush's exit from Washington. "It felt like a 10-pound anvil was lifted off my head," she said.

That's what Wily Coyote said when the Road Runner left. Beep Beep!
That 10 lb. anvil IS your head!
Actually, that tingly sensation is all the botox eating its way up into your brain, bitch.
But that 25 lbs of ugly is still there. These people are just plain mean.
Dear God; she is disgusting!
A 10 lb anvil is pretty useless.
You little witch! You have been at it since Jan 2007 and the economy has been tanking ever since!
“I have no idea what you’re talking about, so here’s a jackass with a 10-pound anvil on her head.”
Unless you are making a pair of tiny silver earrings...
Wow. A 10 lb anvil is a pretty small anvil. About the size of a stapler.
Glad her burdens are so light.
I will gladly email her. Do any of you know her email or how to get it I suppose I could call the capitol and leave a voice mail for her. But, an email would be good, too.
THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA
Anyone who thinks an anvil weighs 10 pounds has obviously never seen one. But what am I thinking???? Only working stiffs would ever muck around with anvils and such.
Agree and Pelosi sleep with her eyes open because they will not close for all the Botox she has used! And many other in Congress I might add men & Women!
‘Pelosi said one of her favorite moments from Inauguration Day was when Marine One lifted off the Capitol grounds, signifying former President George W. Bush’s exit from Washington.’
Nothing any of us could say about Nancy Pelosi is as damagning to her as this comment.
That's right and there is know one but Democrats to blame it on now!
Pelosi:”It felt like a 10-pound anvil was lifted off my head” (now that Bush is gone)
Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I don’t remember any of the GOP congress saying anything negative about William Jefferson Clinton we he left office in 2001?????
Of course, class is not a trait of the left....
