Nancy Pelosi Brokers Passage of Health Care Reform Bill

Well I've just been schooled.  I opened up my Yahoo! homepage to read an article that it was Nancy Pelosi's tireless hard work and leadership that helped pass the health care reform bill in the House.  And here I was giving most of the credit to Obama.

Live and learn.  I don't know much about the Speaker of the House, but having read just that article about her and how hard she worked and compromised and won over her former rivals makes me think she is to be admired.  It makes me especially proud to think that she, a woman, managed to do what many men before her had failed to do - pass health care legislation.  And she works with mostly men too, which can't be easy. 

So here it is.  Nancy Pelosi deserves the credit, and I give it to her.
