History is Made

Today, the 110th Congress is sworn in…and this time, history is made. Now, here in 2007, the first female speaker of the House will take the reins of Congress.
Watching the morning news programs, I keep hearing a whole lot of criticism-not over the fact the new speaker has a double X chromosome, but because people don’t agree with her political slant. While one has to have an extensive political history to even GET to the Hill, I say…give it a few months before starting the critique. Granted, this is politics. Hence, everyone is criticized all the time. I just can’t see the intelligence nor maturity in criticizing the new Congress before it has even been sworn in.
