A few weeks ago, on a Thursday around noon, Nancy Pelosi whirls through the second floor of the Capitol in a sea-foam pantsuit with lots of gold jangling on her arms. The Speaker of the House, the highest-ranking woman in government and third in line to the president, is about to walk the pink-painted halls of her private chambers to another series of closed-door meetings with the Democratic caucus about the health-care bill. Today, she’s set up a powwow of progressives in one of her conference rooms, and another for the Blue Dogs down the hall, but first she has some smiling to do. The Nancy Pelosi smile, as you may have noticed, is a thing to behold, mostly released in conjunction with serial spasms of eye-widening, an odd tic that is likely meant to connote sincerity and optimism (wide-eyedness and all that). Her smile, too, is very big and very quick, coming out of almost nowhere like the Cheshire Cat’s, then disappearing without a trace, often replaced by a wholly unnecessary grimace, a look of vast disappointment at some slight, threat, or sign of disrespect—either real or imagined.
Smiling, then, is what she does as she whips into the Capitol’s 180-foot Rotunda dome that abuts her office, where a hundred or so nervous high-school pages in ill-fitting blue blazers and gray slacks shuffle their feet under a painting of the surrender of General Burgoyne, waiting for her to catapult into the center of a ceremonial photo. Next, she beelines for her office balcony, the one with a killer view straight down the National Mall to the Washington Monument,

That’s a way to look younger and perky.
Ever see what she looks like when she isn’t smiling. Ewwwww
Face is permanently stuck in that position because of botox injections?
“Don’t make that face or it will freeze like that!”
It’s known as the Botox synrome.
It’s known as the Botox syndrome.
How can a baby murdering butcher be named as a devout Catholic?
Ignorance is bliss.
Is she even married of have kids? Weird, but I don’t ever remember her mention anything about family....
Botox or plastic surgery. If she has one more face-lift, she’s going to have a goatee.
It’s hard not to smile when your forehead has been
shortened by five inches.
I think she has 4 or 5 kids.
Mean people always smile when they are doing their evil deeds. That’s where they get their joy.
Face lifts have “stretched Pelosi”.
She calls herself a devout Catholic.
I call myself the King of England.
Both of us are equally accurate.
I don’t think that is a smile. I saw something very similar when my plumber bent over..........
It’s not a smile, it’s actually a smug sneer.
And it’s held there mostly by an elitist attitude, but plastic surgery and botox helps.
Look-up the history of her family. It's like season 1-6 of the Sopranos, organized crime ties, corrupt politics, her old man was neck deep with the Baltimore mob..you know.."This thing of ours." She at her whole rotten family is a blight on America.
then disappearing without a trace, often replaced by a wholly unnecessary grimace, a look of vast disappointment at some slight, threat, or sign of disrespect—either real or imagined.
In the old days it was just called senility.
She has yet to awaken to the fact that she is going to hell.
When
Here's a couple of her more memorable happy moments.
Good Lord! This woman is satanic--and she has plenty of company among her fellow "Catholics" in DC (not that you'd ever find them in church except for photo ops). In fact, it has come to the point that our country would be better off if Catholics were disqualified from holding public office.
Ex communicate her!!!
Why do those who call themselves "conservatives" continue to allow the press and the Democrats to continue to be described as "progressives"?
Those who, like Pelosi, Reid, and Obama describe themselves as "progressive" should be "called out" (to use the PC term of the President's choosing) on the term.
The policies they advocate, the message they bring, and the manner in which they conduct the affairs of "government" are not "progressive" at all. They are, in fact, regressive, oppressive, and backward-looking. They, and all who advocate their policies, speak of all the centuries of humankind's submission to slavery, whether by feudal lords, by Kings, by "masters," or by some form of totalitarian government.
Only in America, did a people envision a society where individuals could live together, write themselves a Constitution to strictly enumerate and limit the powers of the "government" they would consent to, and be free.
"Progressives"?
Their policies, if enacted by bypassing "We, the People's" Constitutional restraints, will lead to tyranny and oppression where "the People" work most of the months of the year to support a Washington power elite's demands on their lives. What is "progressive" about that? Can anyone read the following Jefferson warning without believing that the last phrase describes an economy like the one we have today, where the primary job creation market is in various levels of government?
"To preserve [the] independence [of the people,] we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude. If we run into such debts as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements, for our callings and our creeds, as the people of England are, our people, like them, must come to labor sixteen hours in the twenty-four, give the earnings of fifteen of these to the government for their debts and daily expenses, and the sixteenth being insufficient to afford us bread, we must live, as they now do, on oatmeal and potatoes, have no time to think, no means of calling the mismanagers to account, but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow-sufferers."(Underlining added for emphasis) --Thomas Jefferson to Samuel Kercheval, 1816. ME 15:39
The same reason Michael Jackson looked like his nose had been put in a pencil sharpener. Slow minded people should not be allowed access to plastic surgery.
If you thought you would be sitting atop the capstone forever, you would be smiling too, so long as you lack any principles or respect for liberty. I’d rather have a smiling George Washington giving the finger to the old, ruling order, and stepping down for freedom’s sake. Pelosi is elitist scum who smirks at all of us, including Catholics.
For some reason Jack Rabbit comes to mind.
you forget the photo ops after she was named to speaker of the house....when she posed with her children and grandchildren........a loving mother and all......I remember it all too well.....gag me.
Since when is murdering children in the womb “the right thing to do” for a “devout Catholic”?
The drive-by media lie.
All the time.
About everything.
I learned this by reading FR.
Although I had suspected it for years, before FR existed.
DEVOUT?????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nancy Pelosi “knows” so much about Catholicism she tried to correct the Pope.
The latter.
Squeaker Pelosi has a surgical "clown face".
(She must have asked for the Michael Jackson Special.)
Scary, n'est ce pas?
.
I always assumed that “smile” meant her ben wah balls hit the spot.
Are you serious? Are you serious?
I.e. not one with a real job which creates new wealth and generates jobs. Typical of the brats of the elite.
Harsh? Perhaps, but justice demands it. :)
Well - if she is a devout catholic - you have to wonder what that means anymore.
One way to make sure crime doesn’t pay would be to let the government run it. - Ronald Reagan
She’s always smiling because she’s too stupid to know that the great unwashed won’t put up with her crap forever and that there will be consequences for her marxist ways.
