Pelosi's 'Three Tenors' on Healthcare Reform

By Paul Bedard, Washington Whispers

They don't have the looks or voices of the originals. But that wasn't really the point when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi dubbed the chairmen working on healthcare—Reps. George Miller, Henry Waxman, and Charles Rangel—"the three tenors," a reference to Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo, and José Carreras. "It struck her one day to call them that because they are working in such harmony,"says spokesman Brendan Daly. And "being Italian-American, she is a fan of Pavarotti, of course."

Pelosi's big problem is that she never learns from experience. To much government intervention is like to much Botox, the outcome can be disastrous.
