The Witch Of Capitol Hill Sharpens Her Nose

Nancy Pelosi is not a person that is well liked and that's just the opinion in the halls of congress. Pelosi has the innate ability to sound shrill even when whispering sweet nothings. She learned politics in Baltimore as a little girl and today runs congress like a ward leader who hands out favors to friends and 'breaks' the knees of those thought to be disloyal. Activities far from the white glove and pill box hat highbrow life of the Institute of Notre Dame, a Catholic all-girls high school in Baltimore, and Trinity College where she got an education and charm assistance. Both seem to have failed.

Pelosi said one of her favorite moments from Inauguration Day was when Marine One lifted off the Capitol grounds, signifying former President George W. Bush's exit from Washington. "It felt like a 10-pound anvil was lifted off my head," she said.

Pelosi's politics and political style are from an age passed by, but she'll keep weeping for those less fortunate that her, which is about 99.999999999999% of the population. This first-class witch will show some decorum, though, and weep for us from her million dollar mansion, her comped government jet or her palatial office in the capitol.
