Pelosi: Boehner, McConnell got Time covers, but I never did
CNN ^ | 11-15-14 | Sara Fisher

Washington (CNN) -- Nancy Pelosi doesn't understand why House Speaker John Boehner and newly-elected Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have been on the cover of Time magazine in light of their electoral victories, but she has not.

"I was never on Time magazine cover even though I was first women to be (Speaker)," Rep. Pelosi, D-California, said. "Isn't that a curiosity? That the Republicans win, Boehner's on Time magazine. Mitch McConnell wins, he's on the cover of Time magazine. Isn't there a pattern here?"

Pelosi's comments came as a reaction to a press conference question Thursday about whether she has considered stepping down as minority leader in light of the Democrats losing the House for the fourth time since she led the chamber in 2011.

Charging that the question was unnecessary, Pelosi said she is now thinking that she has "a mission for women on this score."

'When was the day when any of you said Mitch McConnell, when they lost (taking back) the Senate three times in a row, 'Aren't you getting a little old, Mitch? Shouldn't you step aside,'" Pelosi asked. "Have any of you ever asked him that question?"

Perhaps she could grace the cover of Psychiatry Today or Pravda.

Even Time knows enough about marketing to realize no matter what is inside putting a dog turd on the cover won’t help sell copies....

But she whined until she got a free government jumbo jet to fly her back and forth between SF and DC, I believe.
Pelosi is so utterly detestable.

But, Nanzi, perhaps your picture is *inside* the magazine. You just have to buy it to find out what is inside it.

Post of the day!
