What Does Nancy Pelosi Want for her 70th Birthday?
After detailing to reporters the benefits of the Democrats' health care legislation, someone at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's press briefing today wished the speaker a happy birthday. Pelosi turns 70 years old tomorrow.
"You know what I want for my birthday?" Pelosi asked with enthusiasm.
Could it be the passage of the health care reconciliation bill, which the Senate passed this afternoon and the House will vote on tonight?
Perhaps the speaker is wishing for the Senate to pass Wall Street reforms, something the House under her leadership has already accomplished?
Nope: It turns out Pelosi wants to have a little fun on her birthday, like everyone else.
"I've always wanted a pool table," she told reporters.
