(70 posts)I don't think there's another democrat who could have equaled her performance, much less exceeded it.
She deserves a sustained standing ovation! Hopefully she'll get that at SOTU.

(10,850 posts)Are they blushing yet? Not that the arguments ever made sense. Anyone think 'fresh face, new blood' could have accomplished what Madame Speaker has managed in the last few weeks?
As a country we're in crisis and we have our best general on the field. Which is a very good thing! Skill and experience has its place in the world and should never be underrated. Hopefully, it won't be in the future.

Now, if the collusion trail leads to Pence, Nancy may soon be called Madame President!

I militated against everyone who was opposed to Pelosi as speaker. Right now I want everyone who was against her to eat crow by the barrel full.

(86,951 posts)and I'l slap back with saying what a superb role model Speaker Pelosi is as she shows us every day. There's nobody better suited for that role at this point in time, nobody.

(86,951 posts)female trailblazer in my prime, I am absolutely thrilled that this ignorant bully who hates women has just had his ass publicly handed to him by a woman whose power he cannot fathom nor accept.
I think I'll have a glass of wine and toast Madam Speaker this evening.
I have made a point, since seeing how MF45 refuses to use her proper titles, to use her titles with her name and identify her with all the honor she deserves in every post I write.

Much respect to you Honorable Madam Speaker!
