it wasn't in quotes at all. See? From the link Kansan used:


Pelosi, whose husband, Paul, is a legit real-estate mogul, was quick to add that slicing her own paycheck wouldn’t "mean as much" as those senators who struggle to make ends meet on $174,000 per year.


msn interjected that phrase themselves and omitted the full quote that appears in their source. Their "source" article is actually the one linked in this OP (& on msn).

Its some serious bullshit journalism msn pulled which was obviously intended to inflame. And apparently, at least on DU, it worked. They used three whole words from her original quote and turned it into a friggin witch hunt. It'd be laughable if it wasn't so infuriating.
