Humility is the most important quality in a politician and by far the hardest to get.
Seems apt that Pelosi should lead the minority since she is the one who made it.
The GOP needs to keep the Constitution strong so the country is more likely to survive its saving throws.
RE: Pelosi leading the minority.
Perhaps the Dems should change their mascot to a lemming.
…or a Judas goat.
…or skull & cross bones
…or the ever-decaying corpse of V.I. Lenin.
…or a bunny comitting suicide.
Or a wicked looking totally stretched and contorted Smiley Face!
>> so the country is more likely to survive its saving throws
Not to mention its system shock rolls against Polymorph Nation.
My hope is that they stuck peelousy in a dark office in the basement with nothing but tree hugger light bulbs.

Or a retard picking its nose. Oh wait, that’s the presidents.
He wasn’t picking his nose. He was trying to reduce his carbon footprint by only using one nostril.
(He then sold the carbon credits to Waxman)
Am I the only one who was disappointed when Speaker Boehner passed up the opportunity to whack Nancy Pelosi with the giant gavel? The ritual of handing over the gavel should be expanded to include a symbolic crushing of the outgoing party by having the outgoing speaker bashed with the giant gavel. This was probably the founders’ intention when they made the giant gavel. Otherwise, as a gavel, it’s no better than a standard sized unit.
Saving throws is where its at since our founding fathers used our only “magic boots of escaping” when they bailed out of Europe to come here. Until we have the Moon or Mars we will have to do our best with the left who believes “might makes right”… you know when its them doing it.
Random quotes along these lines.
*Charles Dickens “Every revolution eventually turns on itself.”
*When they get plied upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, they will become corrupt as in Europe.
– Thomas Jefferson
*“The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation.” … Vladimir Lenin
*“Alles in Ordnung ist.” (“All is in order.”)
Those saying it later said;
“Wir waren nur Befehle befolgt.” (“We were just following orders”.)

O.K., if we can’t get humility, can we at least get humidity? It’d be something at least.
@Marko:
Quiz Time! Who has had more facial work done? V.I. Lenin’s corpse or Nancy Pelosi’s? (Is it “corpse” or “corps”? I can never keep the two straight in my enfeebled brain.)
Burmashave –
Come here in five months and you can have all the humidity that you’ll ever want.
Answer: Nancy Pelosi’s (though Lenin’s is still the better looking of the two).
