Is Mount Rushmore next?

FDR was in the 1930s. Do you remember Boehner, Gingrich, Tip O'Neill, Sam Rayburn. She is the first woman speaker. She will go down in history.

I feel like House speakers get remembered for a long time, particularly if they were effective.

It's the Senate majority leaders that start to fade for me. I have only a tenuous grasp on the memory of Trent Lott, Bill Frist, or Tom Dashle.
 
I love Nancy. Reminds me of my Mom!

She ain't perfect, about the closest thing to it though! I never knew anyone who was perfect.

Greatest House Speaker in my lifetime!

She and my Mom make me proud to be a Democrat!

I predict if Kevin does manage to fenagle votes to make him speaker, he'll be running to Nancy for help. I hope she tells him to pound sand.
 
As to the subject title, I hope not.

Enough of the land has been destroyed in the name of ego and greed. Mt. Rushmore should not be repeated anywhere for anyone...ever again.

I agree, but I was using hyperbole in the service of a broader point: She has been the most effective speaker in the last half century.

Gardner;5411013]Give it ten years. Nobody will remember who the fuck Pelosi was. For example, when FDR was president who was Speaker of the House? No, don't bother to look it up, you don't know and neither do I. Pelosi will be long forgotten a decade after she leaves Congress.

I think she WILL be remembered in perpetuity. For the same reasons hitler and stalin will be remembered. We can’t let the likes of her into power anymore. She’s a master criminal with the moral character of a serial killer.
 
Pelosi's portrait unveiled at Capitol

A portrait of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was unveiled at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.

The big picture: The image of Pelosi — who broke a glass ceiling as the first woman to control the House of Representatives — is the first of a "Madam Speaker" to join the collection of portraits in the Speaker's Lobby.

They are putting Trump on Rushmore so there is not enough room for Nancy.

I'm not a Pelosi big fan....she's had a LOT of opportunities to stop some of the worst of the neocon/teabagger/MAGA GOP machinations in recent years....and didn't have the guts to do so.
 
Even though it's been decades, you really don't remember who Tip O'Neil and Newt Gingrich are?

And the fact is Pelosi was responsible for substantially more landmark legislative initiatives than either of them ever were.

I remember Newt freaking out about Clinton's blow job,while he was cheating on his own wife!
