Is this the same Pelosi who said some very evil things the past 3/4 years, but she said something good also. She said that she was going to clean up the House.....guess that only applies to one party as 8 of the 10 being investigated are Democrats !
I note also that SHE, NANCY PELOSI is the SINGLE ONLY one complaining and that all comments about her were pretty clear cut and based on her JOB, not her sex.
So, lets see...if you criticize the President, you are racist....if you crticize the Speaker of the House, you are a sexist ! Great system huh

Good point, but I'd point out that Pelosi's comment was more of a pun about her role than a slur to herself. Most everyone is also sensitive to the reality that it's ok to slur someone within one; own ethnic/social/gender or religious group, but often considered an insult when spoke as an outsider. Having a "man" put "her" in her place is more akin to having a master put slave into his place than a pun on one's own expense.
Still, not a bad comparison.
