That didn't take long. And, it's not just conservatives [Republicans plot to bring down Pelosi ... and Clinton with her] who recognize the coming shipwreck that will be Nancy Pelosi's House
stewardship. Opportunities abound. For instance, just as the
message of The Holocaust is a warning of what humans are capable
of, occasionally revisiting Jimmy Carter's presidency is a requirement for
good national health.
It was the first hint of things to come, and it did not bode well.
President-elect
Jimmy Carter, over the objections of everyone from the AFL-CIO to
conservative Democratic Senators (think Robert Byrd), had just
nominated former JFK speechwriter and noted liberal Theodore Sorensen
to be Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Democrats, flush
with their first presidential victory in twelve years were suddenly
divided, appalled and decidedly angry -- at each other.
It was December, 1976.

Jeffery Lord [Nancy Pelosi Carter]
is of course fleshing out an emerging, and oh-so obvious, analogy
betwixt that earlier leftist nincompoop, and Her Pelosiness.
Carter's iridescent trail of incompetence shimmers yet.
The Sorensen episode turned out to be an introduction to a presidency
that became the historical embodiment of weakness in the presidency.
Almost without a pause, Carter kept whirling on as one of the most
self-destructive leaders in the history of any modern political party
on the planet ... By November of 1980, shocked Democrats were
staring at the precursor of Red America -- a 44 state Reagan win over Carter, the Senate turnover to the GOP after over two decades.

I know what you're saying ... ''but. Rodge, why warn her about what
mistakes she's making?'' Don't worry. Anyone who could say
things like ....
- "I pride myself in being called a liberal" and "I don't consider myself a moderate."
- "Anybody who's ever dealt with me knows not to mess with me."
... is too full of herself 
Oh yes, spank me harder ... HARDER! to see what's coming.
