>>> On a Saturday afternoon, in Washington, D. C., House Speaker Nancy
>>> Pelosi 's aide visited the Cardinal of the Catholic cathedral.
He told
>>> the Cardinal that Nancy Pelosi would be attending the next day's
>>> sermon, and he asked if the Cardinal would kindly point out
Pelosi to
>>> the congregation and say a few words that would include calling
Pelosi
>>> a saint.
>>> The Cardinal replied, "No. I don't really like the woman, and there
>>> are issues of conflict with the Catholic Church over certain of
>>> Pelosi's views." Pelosi's aide then said, "Look, I'll write a check
>>> for a donation of $100,000 to your church if you'll just tell the
>>> congregation you see Pelosi as a saint." The Cardinal thought
about it
>>> and said, "Well, the church can use the money, so I'll work your
>>> request into tomorrow's sermon." As Pelosi's aide promised, House
>>> Speaker Pelosi appeared for the Sunday sermon and seated herself
>>> prominently at the edge of the main aisle.
>>> During the sermon, as promised, the Cardinal pointed out that House
>>> Speaker Pelosi was present. Then the Cardinal went on to explain to
>>> the congregation -- "While Speaker Pelosi's presence is probably an
>>> honor to some, she is not my favorite person. Some of her views are
>>> contrary to those of the church, and she tends to flip-flop on many
>>> other views. Nancy Pelosi is a petty, self-absorbed hypocrite, a
thumb
>>> sucker, and a nit-wit. Nancy Pelosi is also a serial liar, a cheat,
>>> and a thief. Nancy Pelosi is the worst example of a Catholic I have
>>> ever personally witnessed. She married for money and is using it to
>>> lie to the American people. She also has a reputation for
shirking her
>>> Representative obligations both in Washington , and in California .
>>> She simply is not to be trusted."
>>> The Cardinal completed his view of Pelosi with , "But, when compared
>>> to Senators Ted Kennedy , Harry Reid , and John Kerry , House
Speaker
>>> Pelosi is a saint."
