On one side are people obsessed with holding power over other people. On the other side are people protective of their freedom from the power exerted by other people. In between, there is no common ground. Nancy Pelosi, as the title of her new book, "Know Your Power" (sounds like an S&M workshop or a Pantera song), suggests, is not a friend of liberty. In grandiose terms, she explained her ambitions to Politico.com: "I'm trying to save the planet; I'm trying to save the planet." If you really believed you were saving the planet, how would you view your political opponents? What measures wouldn't be justified to save the planet? My advice to Ms. Pelosi is "Know Your Power." You can neither save the planet nor does the planet need saving. You are not Christ. You are not Wonder Woman. Somebody save us from the people who want to save us.
San Fran Nan can’t get anything through a House that she supposedly runs. How is she going to save anything, never mind the Planet when she and her party are constantly in a state of chaos? Are these people for real? They certainly live in their own little worlds.
why didnt san fran close any bath houses during the aids epidemic in san nan er fran in the early 80s. might have saved a life. now wonderwoman wants to save the planet. lol hey Eric, you going to be wondergirl? lol
Actually, Nan was not yet a decision-maker in the early 80s. That was San Fran Diane.
Substitute "soul" for "planet" and I would have the same questions for all these goddamn Christians and Jehovah’s witness coming to my door in order to "save" my soul. I put them on the same level as the likes of Ms. Pelosi and Mr. Gore. They are the most boring people with the most boring rhetoric imaginable. Begone with your worthless hides!
Speaking of saving us from ourselves:

Maybe the Pelosi's and Graham's aren't that bad after all, huh? I mean, wow!
Has there ever been a more self serving aggrandizement than to refer to one's own actions as "Saving the planet"? GAG.
