I've had more than a few negative things to say about Nancy Pelosi since she became Speaker.....

..... but picking Pete Stark to chair Ways & Means earns her a whole lot of respect in my book. ..... Hopefully this signifies a big leftward drift by the House at least.

2. I think most of the compaints were they didn't think as a woman she could handle it

but she sure as hell showed most people. Didn't she.

3. Not my complaints.....I was elated when she became Speaker....

....disappointed with much of her leadership for a while, but she's been rallying of late. ...... She's always been more effective than harry reid.
