WaPo: Bloggers send Nancy Pelosi 2,600 roses for her birthday


Daily Kos: FINAL UPDATE: Roses, not Rocks! Now w/Pics, Video & some press...:







Speaker Nancy Pelosi, from the D-Kos link:

Thanks to the community at Daily Kos, and others who joined in, Speaker Pelosi received
thousands of roses this morning for her 70th birthday.

She sent half of the roses to Walter Reed Army Medical Center and is distributing the
other half to hill staff to thank them for all their hard work on the health reform
legislation.

And that was really sweet.

4. Good for her... I have always like Nancy Pelosi

And the fact that she drives people on the right apoplectic, is just icing on the cake for me.

5. Richly deserved! I hope they also made donations to the DCCC so she can stay Speaker!

I think that is what she would really like for her 70th birthday. All donations will be matched until March 31st--the end of the fundraising quarter.

9. Why 2600?

My first inclination is that 2600 is a geek number (think of old school modems), but is there a more specific or accurate reason for the number?

10. It was contribution driven. n/t

12. To me it's geek because of the Atari 2600
