History Made Today for Speaker Nancy Pelosi

Speaker Pelosi & Lauren Underwood, Aug. 2019 from KGBT TV video

For the first time in history, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives is an octogenarian

Today (March 26, 2020), is the 80th birthday of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, assuming Wikipedia‘s bio of Pelosi has the correct date of birth in 1940.

While Pelosi passed the legendary Sam Rayburn of Texas as the oldest ever Speaker of the House back in late January, today is the first time a House Speaker has been 80 or over.

At 80, Pelosi joins House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer among octogenarians among the House Democratic leadership, along with Congresswoman Maxine Waters of California.

God willing, if House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn is in office by his next birthday on July 21, the top 3 Democrats in the House majority leadership will be octogenarians.

Apart from retirement or term limits, in comments, please tell us what Speaker Pelosi should receive for this milestone.

Please be kind and polite with feedback, reflecting respect for our elders.

  1. According to ruralmchenrycountypedia, my sunshine blogger reached this milestone in 1915, so there is nothing here to write home about. Wait until we celebrate my sunshine blogger’s bicentennial…tic, tock, tic, tock, tic, tock, hug your neighbor, tic, tock, tic, tock, tic, tock, meeeeeeoooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww…

  2. And not just any octogenarian, but demented deranged DEMOCRAT octogenarian.

    Congrats Nancy, because as the old saying goes “there is no fool like an old fool”.

  3. Nancy Pelosi will go down in history, will be remembered through the ages, for her most famous statement. That about the ACA Obamacare bill. She said, “You have to pass the health care bill to find out what is in it”. The bill was about 2300 pages long.

    She was exhorting, actually commanding, her Democrat House majority to not bother reading all the fine details, to not look for errors, stupidity, nonsense, etc in the bill. Just trust her. When the bill was passed by all of Congress and ready for signature by President Barak Hussein Obama on national tv, an open mike captured dufus Joe Biden saying to Obama, “This is a big f–king deal”.

    Most Democrat U.S. Representatives do not have a spine. They obediently do everything she commands them to do. That would include the Reps that currently serve citizens in McHenry County.

    A more recent craziness by Pelosi was her giving in to the radical lunatic fringe of her party such as Adam Schiff. She originally was not in favor of impeaching the President, then changed her mind and authorized the Kangaroo Court of Adam Schiff. They did their nasty work late last year then sent their outcome to the Senate. Instead of the US Congress looking out for the well being of US citizens and being mindful of world events such as the Chinese Virus, all of Congress was preoccupied with the topic of impeachment in January 2020. Americans know that the entire impeachment issue was nonsense.

    The Democrat Party’s top leadership is ancient. Pelosi, Hoyer, Clyburn, Waters, Sanders, Schumer, Durbin and of course sleepy dementia Joe Biden.

    If ever there was a time for term limits, it is in our era. Fossils such as Pelosi, Waters, etc should be spending time baking cookies and getting visits from grandchildren and great grandchildren. Not doing harm in our US Congress.

  4. Is she getting blood transfusions from the young vampire Underwood?
