What You're Going to Get With a Democratic Speaker

  1. Corruption contained.
  2. Counterterrosism boosted.
  3. Minimum wage raise.
  4. Interest rate cut on student loans.
  5. Broaden stem cell research.
  6. Contain the Federal Debt.
Anyone have a problem with that? I don't.

From Washington Post article "Pelosi Says She Would Drain GOP 'Swamp'":

I hope they get rid of all those slimy alligators roaming the halls of Congress too. Real alligators I like. The rotten kind infesting Congress need to go. Those would be the lobbyists that work with Republicans to sell the nation to big business and fat cats.

As in the first 100 hours the House meets after Democrats _ in her fondest wish _ win control in the Nov. 7 midterm elections and Pelosi takes the gavel as the first Madam Speaker in history.

Day One: Put new rules in place to "break the link between lobbyists and legislation."

Day Two: Enact all the recommendations made by the commission that investigated the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
