Did Nancy Pelosi 'talk' herself out of a job last night???

LadyLuna, What an absolutely convoluted answer Pelosi gave to Greta about the qualifications of Obama! She, like many other people, couldn't put her finger on one, not even ONE, qualification Obama has to be President of the United States! Instead she cmae out with some mess about how he was a fresh face and not weighed down by the politics of Washington! My take is that BECAUSE he doesn't have the knowledge and experience of the politics of Washington his decisions will be influenced by those who do and guess what? So goes change! My predictions if Obama is elected president: 1) We will be in Iraq much longer than he has stated in his speeches! Window dressing, nothing else! 2) Healthcare: One of two choices; either congress will not be able to come to an agreement on how it should be put together or administered, or, what congress and the president will come up with will totally devastate the medical industry in America and plunge us backward about 50 years! 3) Taxes: You think gas is high? Just wait for these!!

I think Pelosi said this for one simple reason: She wants Obama to win. When politicans want to support one another, they'll say dang near anything to do so. She did go a little overboard with it, but what could she say? he has experience so vote for him? That wouldnt work because its a straight lie!

You are right Pelosi has become too jaded to be the Speaker of the House. She has been there to long and is too experience for the job. Let us realize she was only talking about Obama and nothing about what she said applies to herself. There is something else I would like to point out about this, she loves to be the queen bee. Currently Pelosi is much more powerful than Sen. Reed is. Pelosi dictates Democrat policy, not Reed. Democrat men are all beta male. Democrat women are alpha women. The rules still apply. Pelosi needs Obama, so she can become more powerful. If Hillary had won, Pelosi would lose all of her power, she would have no longer be the queen bee. Pelosi can control Obama, and even make him do exactly what she wants. What is Obama going to do, use his inexperience to push his agenda, I do not think so. She will say anything the Democrats think will get Obama elected, which will create her as the first ever Prime Minister of America.

Then who would be there to manipulate a new president? I wish I could say that yes she did talk herself out of a job, but if that was the case, she would have a couple of years ago! That woman is so annoying!

Wow! I missed that one. What a slip up. "Because of his inexperience!" Who says that kind of thing.

Good morning ladyluna, how are you feeling today? Personally I think that many of our politians have been in office way too long and have lost any true connection with the American public, Democrat and Republican alike. Not that I'm a big Senator Obama fan, because I'm not but fresh ideas should always be welcome. This Congress promised change when they were voted in last year but little change has been seen. I would gladly trade some of the more experienced Senators and Congressmen for someone who had little experience but is dedicated to the American people. Take care.
