Sunday Open Thread: Pelosi Edition
by PubliusWe still can’t believe the Democrats would keep Nancy Pelosi as their leader. But, if they are really considering this, all we can say is…please, please, pretty please…We’re not certain the GOP can win another 60 seats, but with redistricting and Pelosi, who knows?

With Pelosi's face reminding the public of just how truly evil the democRATs were in the last two years how can they not lose in 2012? This could be a good thing because no one exudes true evil like Nancy Pelosi.
Pelosi is the spitting image of spit.
With Pelosi staying on don't be surprised if some of the few remaining Blue Dogs defect to the GOP. I read that about 30 of them remain. After the election in 2012 they might be down to single digits.
The right woman for the left job.
If you are ugly, left-wing extremist, breathing and mean you WILL be elected by San Francisco!
My eyes did a mental stutter step over "left job"…some reason "left" wasn't the word they read <snort>
Need. New. Glasses.
I think it's brilliant they are doing this.
No more nice guys rolling over and bringing a Slurpee to a gun fight.
Put it in their own socialist red mop Slurpee drinking faces.
The really bad thing about her staying in Washington, is that we still have to look at that face! Why is it, that the msm can't seem to get enough of that botox??? And why is it, that Republican women seem to be better looking that Democratic women…not as bitter???
She has to be the most toxic woman in D.C…..I still want someone to put that gavel where the sun can't possibly shine!
Off topic: Another liberal committed to free speech and honest, open debate. Or not. I wonder how often the Big sites get attacked.
http://www.securityweek.com/former-student-gets-3...
"A former University of Akron student was sentenced Friday to 30 months in prison, followed by 3 years of supervised release for conducting Denial of Service Attacks on the sites of several prominent conservative figures as well as infecting several systems with botnet zombies.
Mitchell L. Frost, age 23, of Bellevue, Ohio admitted that between August 2006 and March 2007, he initiated Denial of Service attacks on Web servers hosting the Web sites several conservative figures including Bill O’Reilly (www.billoreilly.com), Rudy Giuliani (www.joinrudy2008.com), Ann Coulter (www.anncoulter.com), and others."
As unpopular as Pelosi is, I'm all for having her as Minority Leader of the House! Her uber-left idealogy combined with a Republican Congress that hopefully keeps its promises and the Tea Party gaining strength will only advance the cause of conservatism.
Conservative activists should take note of the a massive PR advantage Dems retain due to their ownership of the entertainment industry ("news"), the universities, the bureaucracies, and the welfare nation. SF happens to be a crossroad of those, thus the serial election of a travesty like Pelosi.
Remember how the national media protects her image — in much the same way Obama and the other big names have been protected. On the streets many have begun to see Pelosi for what she is. But when they watch the "news" they're not quite sure: all they hear about is how "crazy" the Rand Pauls and Christine O'Donnells and Tea Partiers are.
Don't ever think they are going to treat conservatives fairly in their 2012 campaigns. They will be vicious.
Barring a Tea Party and/or Republic catastrophe, democrats will be sitting in the back of the bus for a very long time. They will never disassociate themselves from socialists, communists and other groups wanting to destroy America.
We have seen the real enemy and they can no longer hide behind their lies and deceit.
Then I must be a portrait artist every time I see her face.
NORMALLY I am not one to make snide or rude remarks about appearance BUT…. having said that… Were it not for BOTOX we would be looking at a HELEN THOMAS look alike for a few more years. Thank you, God, for BOTOX !
Eye pollution is very disturbing…..just look at the sandy beaches of Florida with the obese women in skin tight suits and pants. There should be chop-suey cartons stationed on the sand for those watchers with nausous stomachs.
The last 2 years Pelosi has given much to the progressives, hopefully the next 2 years Nancy will be minority leader an give as much to conservatives.
Well lets hope the Republicans don't bail out any newspapers or left wing media outlets any time soon, and that the fairness doctrine is shot down.
That's my fear: that the renewed GOP will try to win the admiration of the MSM. Just like SCOTUS Justices who embrace "living constitution" nonsense so they can read in the NYT and WaPo how they've "grown" on the bench.
These days, if the NYT isn't bashing you you're probably not advancing conservative American ideals. They will always prop up the Dem side of any debate — conservatives have to work around them. Never try to work with them.
Pardon me, this is off topic, but I feel important information the public should be aware of.
The beef industry is taking on the e.coli 0157:H7 challenge and making serious inroads toward solving
the problem this pathogen poses to the beef-eating public.
Some are unaware that e.coli occurs naturally in the intestinal tract of cattle and causes them no health
risk at all. However at slaughter this bacterium can be introduced into the food chain and causes more
than 70K illnesses and 60 deaths per year in the USA.
In 2009 USDA's Food Safety Inspection Service initiated eight recalls of contaminated beef, consisting
of hundreds of thousands of pounds. Other sources of e.coli 0157 are tainted vegetables, unpasteur-
ized milk and contaminated water.
Several new ideas to control e.coli 0157 and prevent it from entering the food chain are being tested.
Kansas State University has conducted field trials on a vaccine by Epitopix LLC of Wellmar, MN. Their
vaccine reduced the number of cattle carrying the pathogen by 86%. It also reduced shedding levels
by 98%. Their vaccine stimulates the immune system of cattle to recognize e.coli 0157and manufac-
ture antibodies that attack it preventing colonization in the intestinal tract of the animal.
Another e.coli vaccine by Bioniche Life Sciences Inc. of Ontario, Canada is slated to be licensed soon.
This vaccine immunizes against secreted proteins responsible for allowing e.coli to attach and colonize
in the intestinal tract of cattle.
Another company is attacking the problem through feed additives. In field trials cattle fed sodium chlorate experienced a ten thousand fold reduction in e.coli 0157. Salmonella was also sharply reduced.
Other possibilities under consideration are feeding seaweed extract, probiotic cultures and specially des-
igned transgenic feeds.
US agriculture takes the safety of the consuming public seriously and will continue to work diligently on
all issues of this nature.

…….."Pardon me, this is off topic,"………
Not when it is an open thread
Good info.
Thank You TR, I'd been waiting several days to pass on this interesting info. Since we had already
plowed the Pelosi ground yesterday, I hoped folks wouldn't be too offended .
………"I hoped folks wouldn't be too offended "………..
Welcome to
"The United States of the Offeneded"
Where everyone is a victim,in a special class and has a "Right " to not be offended.

Let's pray they keep Pelosi front and center on the political stage for the next two years, she's political poison.
Don't forget the Dems have twice as many seats to defend in 2012.
Having Pelosi as minority leader of the house is perfect. She's like a big billboard of stupid, not unnoticed by the American people. I'll even campaign for her if that's what it takes. When you have members of your own party disavowing your very existence and the general populace of liberal terrorists questioning your sanity, it creates a perfect maelstrom of malcontent. Please, for the love of everything holy, seat the ol'skeezer in the chair.
Hire Pelosi? For what? With constant supervision, she could possibly be a barely adequate traffic cone.
Not so much off topic. Whenever I think of e. coli, I think of Nancy Pelosi. Have the same reaction to both.
Well, it is about cows.
No, I didn't just say that. I'm ashamed.
Obama to use teleprompter for Hindi speech
Namaste India! In all likelihood that will be silver-tongued Barack Obama's opening line when he addresses the Indian parliament next week. But to help him pronounce Hindi words correctly will be a teleprompter which the US president uses ever so often for his hypnotising speeches
Obama will make history for more than one reason during the Nov 6-9 visit. This will be the first time a teleprompter will be used in the nearly 100-feet high dome-shaped hall that has portraits of eminent national leaders adorning its walls.

/ Hahahahaha
/ I thought he was so smart and a great orator, and he needs TOTUS for a 20 minute speech ?

No one ever went broke underestimating the taste of the San Francisco public.
With the left out of the closet (socialist). This will be most helpful driving the point home. I believe her, and Lawrence O’Donnell should get together for regular chats on the virtues of Marxist dogma. Thanks again Nancy, hopefully the left will elect you too the high-seat in the politburo, as minority leader of coarse.
To coin an oft' used phrase, "Pelosi is sooo twenty minutes ago."
She is irrelevant. it's their program(s) that need to be addressed. This is just breads and circuses, in my humble opinion.
I sort of think she may be the magnifying glass. I'm sort of glad she and people like Bawrney Fwanks are sticking around. It makes them easy to find when the indictments are handed down. It will certainly be fun having some pinatas at the pin the tail on the donkey party.
Nancy Pelosi has done almost as much for Conservatives as Barrack Obama.
I hope they keep her.
We need someone for the poster child of Socialism.
I'm torn.
On one hand, Pelosi is a target-rich environment all to herself. She is poison for the democrats, who will no doubt vote her in as minority leader by a wide margin, because they are as stupid as they are dogmatic. This will just about guarantee more gains for Repubs in two years.
On the other hand, her leadership virtually guarantees two years of gridlock.
We can't afford that.
Something's gotta give.
I don't care if she becomes the leader of the Congressional Black Caucus as long as she loses her jumbo jet courtesy of the American taxpayers.
Please elect her as minority leader… Minority Leader Pelosi – has a nice ring to it! Let her party be the "party of no" in the house, and make it that much better for us in 2012!!
Every Republican should be thrilled that Pelosi may still be leading the House Democrats.
The liberals love her and we are happy for them, for it is in their love for extreme fascism by which Americans are to continue to be best acquainted with what these people do and if we are to eliminate them permanently from our lives there has to be the living, breathing approximation of our pending danger and doom. Nancy Pelosi personifies this danger better than the Devil could himself if he were to come to Earth and take human form.
and for the dangers of boxtox….
Yes Nan Can………she has too much on all of them.
Dare they NOT vote her in again?
Pathetic!
Nancy was interviewed after the election and said she had no regrets. No regrets? Even Sinatra had a few (albeit too few to mention).
I wish somebody would do a full and complete audit of all she has spent using that jet…
Come on now, Pelosi isn't all that bad……………….. Well, maybe a tad……………OK, a bit more…………OK, OK, a lot more……….. Ah heck, she's really, really bad………But, take a look at what she did for the conservatives. She helped to give us 60+ seats in the house, and I'll even give her partial credit for the 6 seats in the senate. Now how bad is that? Imagine in 2012, with her help, we might even gain 30 more seats in the house, 6 to 12 seats in the senate, and a new president. Yep, I am ecstatic she is hanging around like the old bat she truly is. We could wind up with a super majority in both houses of congress. She truly is one heck of a poster child for useful idiots.
Some of these R&D projects sound promising,……
too bad federal RED TAPE still lies ahead.
"Why is it, that the msm can't seem to get enough of that botox???"
To qualify as a news story the "press" thrives on the following: Blood, sex and controversy. If you don't have blood or sex you can always find the controversy. If you can't find that, just make it up.
How silly of me to actually think that,……….
Democrats would finally get the message and realize,.
they stand between passing worthwhile legislation and the American people and,…….
they would be willing to change in the coming session.
Just like from the movie "The Gladiator":
"A people should realize when they are defeated",…….
a party should realize when they are WRONG.
A few minutes ago in a radio interview with Diane Sawyer, Nancy said the reason her party had their collective ass handed to them was because they didn't move fast enough implementing their agenda. Still clueless, and ugly.
Mornin' Ralph, and you are right the red tape may hamper these efforts to a degree.
Have a wonderful day in the Peoples Republic of Chi-town, dear sir!
.
Oh…OUCH. Burn!
Just finished another one a minute ago…. I call it Nancy Peloogie. I should have enough for an art exhibit later this afternoon.
Been chewin' that Red Man again? (Seems like Pelosi material.)
We expect it, we're ready for it, and they are going to lose. Having Madam Botoxic on their masthead will only help them look more toxic.
Pinhead! I swear she really could look through a keyhole with both eyes at the same time.
LOL! Good one!
As Minority Leader does she get to swap her 575 for Grayhound?
Isn't that what she drinks, Greyhounds? She even looks like one.
Let the absurd commie be the leader of the Democrat commie party, it will be just another nail in their coffin. May their political careers rest in peace.
I tried it once, thirty-five years ago when I was on a shrimp boat with a Georgia boy named Mitchel. He always sounded like Slim Pickens, and it was because of the Red Man. Any way I tried a pinch, and spent the next half hour trying to get rid of the taste. We both had a good laugh over it.
That must be Pelosi's flat/suite in D.C. Oh, the gall of it all……..
Just Sayin'…
I use to think that LA was the worst city in California I have now changed that to San Francisco. Don't feed them a happy meal but bring them to the gay parade. SF Fo Sucked up
I am always commenting about looks because you can tell so much about a person by looking at them. It's called profiling and it's an effective tool, but the Left has all but removed it from the dictionary. A tubby woman with too much skin revealed is eye pollution. They p*ss and moan about noise pollution, well I don't want to look at two ton Tessy dressed in a two piece swimming suit. I don't want to see someone who is tattooed with nose, lips and eyebrow rings checking out at Walmart in front of me. Looking at Helen Thomas was just plain scary she should have come with a PG13 rating before they flashed her up on the screen, incase small children were in the room. You are right, Nasty Pelosi without botox would be Helen Thomas all over again.
God forbid anything happens to Obama and Biden before a Republican Speaker can be sworn in.
Keep an eye on Pelosi. She'll do anything to stay in power.
part of the reason why Nancy was such a brilliant speaker was that she could put on the floor a vote on anything and was basically guaranteed a win. She had the right to pass out no votes to her members to help show that they weren't liberals.
For the next two years the Republicans will benefit as they allow the Democrats to put up their amendments and democrats wanting to support the final bill because they don't want to be seen as liberals like Nancy Pelosi.
