Pelosi thinks they should not take a pay cut...

...because it would undermine the dignity of their jobs:

"I don't think we should do it; I think we should respect the work we do," Pelosi told reporters in the Capitol. "I think it's necessary for us to have the dignity of the job that we have rewarded."

Well, your Highness, lots of Americans have had to take pay cuts whose dignity I value higher than that of the persons who have betrayed their oaths of office over and over.

If she thinks her pay is too low, she is welcome to quit and get a job in the real world. However, before she does that, she should practice the phrase "You want fries with that?"

Someone should inform her there is No Dignity among thieves like her and her ilk. She helped direct millions of $$ in foreclosures to her husbands company, so she wants to take as much as she can get any way she can. Her intellect or lack thereof wouldn't qualify her to be 88th assistant-assistant secretary of the a local chapter of Mickey Mouse Club.

She should take an enlisted's paycheck for a while. Some months it feel like I'm barely making it. I'll take a her paycheck with a pay cut and be happy.

I would pay her just to shut up and crawl back in her cave. How's that for dignified?

She can't take a pay cut, she has to pay for continuing face work !

Or maybe, "Welcome to Wal-Mart. Have a nice day."

In either of those cases she will say: "You have to pay first before you can find out what's in the box"!

They don't have greeters at Wal-Mart anymore. So she's out of luck.

I didn't think so either, but I've seen two in as many weeks.

Have you seen photos? She would scare away customers. And before someone asks, yes, even Walmart customers.

Dumb politicians...

If she took the flat pay or pay cut, she could gain a minuscule amount of respect from her enemies AND continue to get all kinds of insider trading information influenced by legislation.

If it were indeed based on the "dignity of the job", the pay cut would be mandatory...and I am not just talking about her.
