reflections on reflections ....

I hadn't thought of this before -- but it's a good point. Even those that live under a rock know that the House has a new (first time ever) FEMALE speaker. Now, in addition to being female Nancy is also a mom and a grandma. There is some "on the job" training that comes with being a mom that I now realize will transfer well to her new gig.

Or as my friend, Christina, at Torrey Pines Reflections put it ...

Which is why is about damn time that a woman rose to that position of power!! Who else will be able to handle the bickering of the children...errr..congresspeople better?

See - it doesn't take what you can learn in a management course, it takes good old "stop it or your grounded forever" skills.

(Hmmmm though I have to wonder if she'll be giving the other congresscritters "time outs" if they fight too much).
