And, the award for best actress goes to…Nancy Pelosi
Nancy Pelosi displays her acting skills in recent press conference:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who appears to rank only behind President Obama as a top target of health care reform opponents, grew visibly emotional Thursday when asked to compare the current political climate to that of years past.
“We are a free country and this balance between freedom and safety is one that we have to carefully balance,” Pelosi said at a Capitol Hill press conference as she appeared to get emotional. “I have concerns about some of the language that is being used because I saw this myself in the late 70s in San Francisco.
“This kind of rhetoric was very frightening and it gave — it created a climate in which violence took place and so I wish that we would all, again, curb our enthusiasm in some of the statements that are made, understanding the ears that it is falling on are not as balanced as the person making the statement might assume,” she added.
The California Democrat’s image was a popular one among “Tea Party” protesters on Capitol Hill last weekend, used on signs with derogatory messages like “Congress, look what happens from too much pork.”
Anything to silence the opposition, I suppose. They say that DC is Hollywood for ugly people. I guess they come here because along with lacking good looks they lack good acting skills, too.
