On the Political Front

Not only was the Sweet Sixteen set this weekend, we also learned that:

US Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi was hospitalised on Monday after feeling unwell during a visit to Rome, Italian news agencies said.

Pelosi, in Italy to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Italian nation, was scheduled to meet with Defence Minister Ignazio La Russa and Gianfranco Fini, head of the lower house of parliament, when she felt "slightly unwell."

The Italian-American democrat was forced to cancel her meeting with La Russa and postpone the one with Fini. She is undergoing tests in Rome's Umberto I hospital, the agencies said.

The American Embassy refused to comment.

Two thoughts.

"Slightly unwell" is how I feel every time I see a picture of Nancy Pelosi.

I'll bet you anything she had Pitt, Syracuse and Notre Dame in her Final Four.
