"That exchange captures the power that the speaker wields. She — not a committee chairman — is the Democratic decider on almost every major issue, from which bills reach the House floor to key political decisions involving campaigns." – Paul Kane, The Washington Post.

The part of the article that disturbs me is how Pelosi's opponents use the "Fire Pelosi" logo with imagery of her ingulfed in flames to raise funds. What does that say about her opponents and the people that send money? They are plenty of politicians whom I do not agree with, but invoking images of them being burned alive sickens me. Even the politicians that I disagree with, I would not wish death by fire upon them.
