Irony, or Politics as Usual


The political world, for the most part, is not a realm that I often find myself that enthused about. However, I couldn't help but see the irony in this story from the Washington Post. The article's about Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats taking over our legislative branch. By the way, is she doing the Arsenio Hall up there?
Here's an excerpt:

Despite the promised "new direction for America," getting the money out of politics and all of that, some facts of Washington life appear immutable and eternal.


"One hundred hours to make this the most honest and open Congress in history," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi declared at the beginning of a history-making day -- which ended last night with the Democrat from California presiding over a glitzy fundraiser open to anyone with $1,000 for a ticket.
