From what I understand, three kinds of people do this:
1) People under heavy duress
2) Liars
3) The Insane

Good Grief, the President gave an outstanding speech and all I've seen is grief given to an out of place woman.
I watched the speech, I focused on the President, whatever Pelosi did or didn't do wasn't what I watched for.

I thought some freeper clocked her at about 60 b/s. She must have some pretty massive blink muscles for that. We should put a windmill in front of her and generate some juice.

This is not accurate . I tabbed her at 80+ /min. more than once . Somtimes they panned to the crowd in the middle of a minute , but she kept on blinkin'

I tried to point it out during the Cheney/Edwards debate in 2004, but that liar, er lawyer blinked a WHOLE LOT every time he answered the panel.

It must have worked. I was more distracted by the blinks than anything else. Last year, I made comments about the amount of coughing. It seems whenever the President made a strong point, someone would cough.
I think that both of these are intentional tactics to "dis" the President.

It was true, it was very distracting behind President Bush, and her hair was in her eye also.
To: edpc
This is also an indicator that they are highly self conscious.

never joked about Dennis Hastert conferring with Cheney about tie patterns But they should have. At least here in IL, Hastert has a terrible image.
To: AnnaZ
Very interesting. Representative Pelosi exhibits pathological behavior and Vice President Cheney is castigated.
Sure the media is impartial.

Pelosi, reminded me of the guy in the Pink Panther, who was going crazy, blinking.
To: pfflier
In Animal House, the Deltas coughed "B******" under their breath when Dean Wermer listed the offenses they were charged with.

Body Language Speaks Volumes...
"Maintained eye contact can show if a person is trustworthy, sincere or caring. Shifty eyes, too much blinking can suggest deception. "

"I don't blink. Blinking makes your character seem weak. Try it yourself: say the same line twice, first blinking and then not blinking. I practiced not blinking to excess when I first made this discovery, went around not blinking all the time and probably disconcerted a lot of people. But by not blinking you will appear strong on screen." |

whatever Pelosi did or didn't do wasn't what I watched for. That's unfortunate. Perhaps you missed the part where she and her fellow Dems failed to stand and applaud when the President mentioned victory. The speech mattered....so did the reaction it received from both sides.

Just one reason why I love Dick Cheney. I wish God had made a few more of him.
