"Come any closer and I'll knock the tan off you!" Latarsha – Jacksonville, FL
I’ve always wanted to do this.
You’d better duck…
This new spirit of bipartisanship…it’s like a first date.
IIf you don't behave, I'll haved to use the gavel on you, SO NO partisan politics or ELSE!!!!!!!!! Remember I'm the majority leader, not you,,.................
"I TOLD you there is NO SMOKING in here!"
So you think we’re going to give you the $800 million…?
Speaker Pelosi hammers out a deal with Minority Leader Boehner
Come here and let me knock some sense into you, you conservative right-wing nut!
Make nice or I’ll bonk you!
My arms on your shoulder, your hand's on my waist, your eyes closed, lips almost puckered...
CAN I SMACK YOU NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A disarming smile masks the Speaker’s true intent..
You try kissing me I'll bop you!!
You're welcome to stay at the podium since I'm inviting all of the children to come forward for my swearing in.
"Speak softly, but always carry a big gavel!" (Nancy quote)
You only see the STRIPES, NOW let me show you some STARS !!!
Thanks John, but with two lawsuits pending I think the Senate needs this more than we do.
"This new gavel will go nicely with that hushed up raise we're all getting this year!"
“Bang, bang Nancy’s wooden hammer came down upon his head!"
Quit doddling John, or I'll show you the business end of the gavel. I've got work to do.
Almost there...If I can just reach into her pocket, I can disable her.
Thanks John. Now get out of my seat or I'll knock you unconscious!!
Nancy Pelosi shows how she will get the Republicans to behave.
The definition of a pounding headache.
And this is the new politics, silence the opposition.

"The one and only time Pelosi will resemble a knockout."
Let's knock the economy back on track!
"I have one of these at home too, I use it for a meat tenderizer!"
Nancy prepares to tenderize more pork that is Washington politics as usual, in a bypartisian fashioned suit.

This is just a little preview of what is going to be going on in congress in at-least the next 4 years
Nancy if you bang me with that thing one more time I'm telling Obama.
Nancy delights in a good game of 'Wack the Mole' before settling down to business.
Hey Nancy, let's agree upon a stimulus package and seal it with a kiss.
As it's her birthday, Nancy gets first crack at the John Boehner pinata.
If you were a good boy, Santa Claus will reward you.
And they say Democrats and Republicans can't get along!
"It's hammertime, can't touch this"
"BEAT" 360, you say???????????
Finally, we can stop people from coming in...just like they are doing in the Senate!
"Mmm...Nancy...how about a kiss?"
"You just try it, buster...I've got a gavel and I'm not afraid to use it!"
BEAT 360 ?..... I,d rather BEAT YOU !!!
After 'convincing' by Pelosi, Boehner changes his vote.
Go, Nancy, go!
By the power of Grayskull... I have the power!
Pelosi demonstaretes a bipartisan smack up side the head.
Talk to me like you did in college, Nancy.
let me wipe off those white flakes....thanks, I forgot to use my head and shoulders
There's more than one way for women to break the glass ceiling!
"Oh, Gosh.... I was told not to look her directly in the eyes."
So are you going to kiss me or are you going to hit me.
