House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was named the recipient of this year's Profile in Courage Award by the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation. The award, which has been called the Nobel Prize for public figures, is given for an act, or a lifetime, of political courage.

In a statement, Caroline Kennedy called Pelosi "the most important woman in American political history."

The first female to be elected Speaker, and the first person elected Speaker in non-consecutive terms in over 60 years, Pelosi has served in the House of Representatives since 1987. The California Democrat worked with a Republican president to pass an economic bailout package in 2008, and with a Democratic president to pass landmark healthcare reform in 2010, despite strong opposition in both cases.

"So, the courage that that takes, really, I think, makes her an example and an inspiration for generations of Americans, men and women," Kennedy said.

HaHaHaHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Give me an "Award" for the the guy who shits on Pelosi!

Hahahah. Come on man. They make these "awards" up, so they can give them to each other and feel important.

I would shit on her "award" and her too. They are both meaningless.

It is with great regret, that I offer this 'Award' for the person who has received more 'Awards' than any human being on Earth.
Alexander the Great?
Genghis Khan?
Napoleon?
Nah, That is nothing. True greatness is in the body of Pelosi. She has the spirit. She has the demon. She is possessed by a drive that makes her Great.

Hahahahaha
Give me another "Award". hahaha Give me another plaque! Give me a medal dammit....I demand it!

As I understand it the Profile in Courage recipient gets 5% off at Denny's restaurants on July 4th except on the already low, low price of the Grand Slam.

..hmm... maybe she received the award because she still has the courage to make a complete azz out of herself every time she opens her mouth, stumbles and forgets what she's says. It's one of those 'feel good' awards for someone who doesn't deserve it.
