Big Mistake for the Dems to vote her back into this position.
Hopefully someone more reasonable will step up & replace her.

What's the mistake? The Democrats are voting for someone who is the most effective congressional leader and perhaps, shares their values the best. Their not looking for someone who would be appealing to conservative republicans. I definitely hope they wouldn't do so!

So much for the tolerance of the right.

Those on the right have always shown a great disrespect towards women. That is one reason why they lost the election. You would figure that they would change their tone but judging fro this thread, they haven't. Thier war on women continues.

Pelosi is intentionally divisive. Her smug little "rub it in your face" speeches at podiums applauding the absence of a certain racial demographic on certain committees, among many other examples, are all that is wrong with our country.

She is the type of politician we all supposedly despise, yet, as long as she is on your side, it's ok.

I'll tell you what, lets lock her and her equally divisive moron associate of hers, John Boeiner, in a room together until A: they fight to the death, or B: both promise to retire from politics.

Unfortunately, we all know, the only thing that would accomplish is some awkward old people sex, and she'd probably write him a check for 12 dollars afterward.

Proving beyond a doubt that the democrats have no interest in bringing the country together, being bi-partisan or compromise. If they did there is no way they would allow one of their most divisive "leaders" to remain in charge of the party. If Obama really wanted to work with Republicans he would have told her to step down.

You have to agree though that the laws passed under Pelosi were staggering. Staggeringly bad.

She's the minority leader. Basically insignificant in the scheme of things. She has ONE VOTE. So what difference does it make to you? You don't live in her district anyway.

The last words of many a hero. And besides, unless you rent a couple of semis to move your extensive armory of illegal automatic and support weapons, and move some thousand miles to the south or southwest, you'll either be immediately imprisoned or driven into the hills when the balloon goes up.

And if you evade capture and make it to the outback, it'll only be a short while before you're a prisoner or a corpse. Partisan activity in NH might last a few months at most - the forests aren't dense enough and you have no refuge to fall back on, because the Canadians are certainly not going to let you skip across to resupply.
