  1. 90 years later...House of Representatives, 435 members, 67 women; US Senate, 100 members, 16 women. We've come a long way baby, but not far enough.

  4. Ahh...but where is Barbara Jordan now that we really need her.
    If I could paraphrase: "I knew Barbara Jordan and you maam ( Nancy Pelosi) are no Barbara Jordan".
    She ( Nancy) needs to have another Ice Cream and then go home!

  6. No . No Newt for me. By I do want to believe that there is better than what we have. Why do we elect folks who try to emulate what we already don't like instead of blazing their own path.

  7. You are asking the question of the ages....we have had 60 Speakers (all male, by the way)...how many can you name...how many blazed their own path? You can look it up.

  8. actually-we do not elect the speaker-we elect
    our reps.-based on seniority and satrapies-they,
    the elected choose the speaker
    (as is should be-probably)

    but you and we could not elect pelosi out
    knowing she could be speaker-we live in another
    state.

    we live in a constitutional republic
    not not not
    a democracy

    aint complaining

    as a friend says

    "it is what it is"

    just dont live in denial

  9. I certainly don't mean to imply that we elect the speaker, I more ask why do "we" the american public continue to elect and re-elect people who let us down...I know, the problem is Congress, just not my congressman(person) :)

  10. A quote if you don't mind from Mike Lupica's Shooting from the Lip column..Sunday NY Daily News ( seems we always quote the ones we like and not the ones we don't!)

    "President Obama must wonder sometimes when Nancy Pelosi ever actually helped him."

    I just liked it and happen to agree :)

  11. speaking of "not mine"-we do not like "earmarks" but if our rep brought zero federal dollars back home-he would not stand a snowballs chance to be re-elected.

    when obama chose rahm emmanuel as chief of staff-i knew nothing was going to change in american politics-one right-wing extreme-to a left wing cow-tow

    tit for tat

    a rat is a rat

    elect whom?

    who runs anymore?

    we want mainstreet empathy

    yet elect law degreed ivy leaguers

    shame on we
