The baddest woman (or man) in Washington
November 7, 2009 · Posted in Healthcare reform, News and Current Affairs
Nancy Pelosi cut deals down to the last minute, fully utilized her House whip, and managed to hold together angry female lawmakers, liberals, and pro-life Democrats (plus a Republican.) And in the end, she got healthcare through the House, even after the Senate forced her chamber to “go first.” And she did it without the painful public dithering and anxiety that we saw in the Senate. The House bill is superior to the Senate version, even without a “robust public option,” and between Pelosi and Reid, Nancy has proved herself the tougher, “better man.” That makes Nancy Pelosi Washington’s biggest bad-ass. Nice work, Madame Speaker.
Now, don’t screw it up, Harry.

Spell much? Jeez. If you’re going to do the winger talking points, just copy and paste. And enough with the ALL CAPS screaming. Yelling at people in poorly constructed English is just rude. That said, have a nice day.
