Nancy Pelosi: Self-appointed “Queen of America”

What have I missed while I was on vacation in Vegas this week?

Let’s see — it looks like Nancy Pelosi has annointed herself Queen of America and the most powerful woman in America (has she never heard of Oprah?), throwing herself a tiny four-day gala celebration. Is there a precedent for her behavior in American politics? Not that I can remember.

Ace has consulted his Little Leftwing Book of Civil Political Discourse as to how to accept and react to Ms. Pelosi, and on page 15 he found this:

“The lying criminal whore ain’t my Speaker of the House.”

Hah. Dissent is still patriotic, isn’t it my dear Left wing friends?

Kim Priestrap at Wizbang, “Pelosi is Already Drunk on Power and Today’s Just the First Day of Democratic Control“. Kim also tips us to this from Andrea Mitchell:

Are you happy with this big celebration that Nancy Pelosi has planned for herself? Is it a bit unseemly to have Stevie Wonder and Tony Bennett and the dinners and the lunches and the brunches and the trip to Baltimore to rename the street in honor of her. Isn’t this a little bit too imperial?

Definitely much too imperial.

Besides, if you had wanted to go you’d have to drive down to George Bush Intercontinental Airport and then fly to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport and then drive to Baltimore.

It’s much too imperial of an event to go to all that trouble.

Can’t you just see the steam coming out of Hillary’s ears when this mere Representative proclaims herself ‘The most powerful woman in the universe’!

If you’re seriously outraged about imperial behavior from our elected officials there is much bigger fish to fry.

Just how many different ways has the Bush Administration tried to hide once-public information sources from the public record? Help us count the ways.

…Department of Defense has suddenly classified the numbers of attacks in Iraq for September through November of this year — after providing the figures for every month since the war began. Why classify the information now? If there’s a good explanation, we don’t know it, and the Pentagon isn’t returning our calls.

As others have noted, it’s far from the first time that the administration has tried to deep-six data that was unhelpful to its goals. Over the years, they’ve discontinued annual reports, classified normally public data, de-funded studies, quieted underlings, and generally done whatever was necessary to keep bad information under wraps…

Click the link if you want real examples of an imperial presidency. I would hope that patriots on both sides of the aisle would be outraged by the list.

a long time for this night to party, nibble on goat cheese ravioli with pumpkin and truffle, wipe their lips with paper napkins embossed in gold with ‘Speaker Pelosi January 4, 2007,’ listen to former members of the Grateful Dead sing ‘Truckin”… Ha! UPDATE: Nancy Fest gone wild; The cannoli at the reception after the morning Mass were from the bakery on the street in Baltimore’s Little Italy where she grew up. The white lilies on the altar were her favorite flower. The chapel belonged to Trinity

You need to put up a warning sign before we view that.

I just spit my morning coffee laughing at that.
