Pelosi was with two of Giffords' best friends -- Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York -- in the hospital room where President Obama and his wife, Michelle, had also spent time before leaving for the emotional memorial service at the University of Arizona. After Pelosi left the hospital room, she partially attributed Giffords' latest sign of progress to "girl power."I would imagine that accuracy in stories should be of utmost important to your story. I live in Arizona and truth be told, Ms Giffords first opened her eyes on Jan 9, days before the President's proclamation during his speech.
Posted Jan 9, 2011, 12:40 pm B. Poole TucsonSentinel.com "Giffords is in a drug-induced coma in intensive care. Doctors frequently awaken her to check her responsiveness, and she could open her eyes and respond to simple commands Sunday - an encouraging sign, said Rhee said."
Pelosi had to be there to make her political statement. She has to be where the attention is.

While working these people will argue and vote differently on issues but it is not personal. I would be willing to bet once they leave chamber and on their own time they are best of friends, Going shopping together, dinner, and whatever. Look at professional football players .On the field they are almost killing each other but after the game they shake hands then go out to have dinner or whatever. Do you bring your personal life to work? Do you bring your job home? Looka t during campaigning and even on the televised debates they put each other down but after the show they go out for dinner and drinks and laugh about what went on and probably say "How do you think we did?"
People it is nothing more then a show for your benefit to gain votes. Do you actually thing electing one person over the other is going to change your life? Do you actually think one party is different from the other?
Gimme a break.....another pathetic attempt to pump up the Leftists. Nancy Pelosi as a human being?? Stop, please. She is nothing but an angry selfish bitch. Girl power?? Bullshit. We are all so sick of this gender crap. Imagine if a man said anything about "man power"? Clowns like this writer would be yelling and screaming. Screw you and your double standards.

And the nerve of these libturds is outrageous. Have any of you noticed that hardly anything has been said about the killer being a reader and fan not only of Hitler's Mein Kampf, but also of the left wing Communist Manifesto. And also that one of those killed was a conservative judge who had been appointed by Bush. The mainstream media has said hardly anything about about the judge who was murdered by this commie whacko. Instead, they're twisting everything and making a big deal accusing Fox News, Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin of being behind this. What it really is, is a ploy for more govt. control meaning less freedom for the ordinary American taxpayer. It doesn't take a genius to see what the Obama liberals are up to here.

Nancy Pelosi seems to me to be the type of person who wouldn't take such things personally. If others felt somebody else could do the job better than she, Pelosi can live it ... and it'll probably have doing an even better job to prove them wrong, but she wouldn't hold it against them.
