Pelosi “country clubs” House cafeteria menu

The Speaker of the U.S. House, Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco, is a member of the “party of the people,” the Democrats. And the people are going upscale, apparently. Pelosi has revamped the House cafe menu, says this story from The Politico.
Da Speaker, according to the story,  has replaced  processed cheese with brie, and there’s to be no more Jell-O. The workingman’s fare will give way to the sensibilities of the wine ‘n’ cheese Democrats, who will certainly enjoy “raspberry kiwi tarts and mini-lemon blueberry trifles. Meatloaf has moved over for mahi mahi and buns have been shunted aside in favor of baguettes,” Politico sez.

This is the House whose public approval rating is lower than President W’s. And that’s really low.

What? You say 50 million have no health care? We’ll deal with that later. Have another raspberry kiwi tart, Nancy?
