Pelosi says Trump ‘dishonoring’ God in global warming decision

Rep. Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that President Trump was “dishonoring” God and questioned whether his grandchildren will even be able to breathe air after his announcement a day earlier that he would withdraw from the Paris climate accord.

“How is he ever going to explain to his grandchildren what he did to the air they breathe — assuming they breathe air,” she said at her weekly press conference. She compared the president to racist segregationists during the civil rights movement, said Mr. Trump’s decision was yet another reason he needed to release his tax returns, and said the U.S. has isolated itself from the world, joining just Syria in rejecting the Paris agreement as too onerous.

The issue is personal for Mrs. Pelosi, who as House speaker staked her majority on attempting to pass a major piece of legislation to limit U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. The bill cleared her chamber but never saw action in the Senate, and analysts say the legislation’s unpopularity was a factor in Democrats losing control of the House in the 2010 election.

Having seen that failure, President Obama avoided going to Congress again, and instead tried to impose carbon limits from the outside, both by using executive regulatory powers and by signing the U.S. up for the Paris agreement, hoping international pressure could force the U.S. into action.

Stretch apparently has a unique view of theology. Remember back in 2008, when she said:

I would say that as an ardent, practicing Catholic, this is an issue that I have studied for a long time. And what I know is, over the centuries, the doctors of the church have not been able to make that definition. And Senator–St. Augustine said at three months. We don’t know. The point is, is that it shouldn’t have an impact on the woman’s right to choose. Roe v. Wade talks about very clear definitions of when the child–first trimester, certain considerations; second trimester; not so third trimester. There’s very clear distinctions. This isn’t about abortion on demand, it’s about a careful, careful consideration of all factors and–to–that a woman has to make with her doctor and her god. And so I don’t think anybody can tell you when life begins, human life begins. As I say, the Catholic Church for centuries has been discussing this, and there are those who’ve decided…

Methinks the Botox has gone to the brain.

Maybe dishonoring her god. Baal or the like.

[Veto!]

What an idiot. Trump decided NOT to play God, but Nancy can’t let go of the notion that she is God.

[Mr. Douglas]

Her comment is textbook “using the Lord’s name in vain.”

It’s not about cussing.

[Joe Bfstplk]

Ever tire of the Chicken Littles?

[Dilbert San Diego]

Nancy thinks Trump’s grandchildren will breathe something other than air?? Or won’t breathe at all?? What the heck???

[Kickass Conservative]

No, just Batshit Crazy.

The President laid out the case that the Paris Accord is nothing but Big Hat, No Cattle in his Speech.

Doesn’t matter. He might as well have Tweeted out that we were done with it.

[Mark17]

Maybe dishonoring her god. Baal or the like.

Yes, I was just going to ask, which "god" is she referring to? Certainly not the God of the Bible.

[bamagirl1944]

She must serve a different god than the one I serve. I serve the one true God of all creation.

[AlaskaErik]

I love how these atheistic liberals invoke God whenever it serves their purpose.

[Vlad The Inhaler]

G*D says Nanna Pelosi dishonoring HIM by supporting abortion then taking Holy Communion.

[Captain Peter Blood]

For someone like Pelosi, her party the Democrats that is funny.

These people are doing everything they can to push God and religion in general out of our everyday lives and then invoke God and the Bible when they can’t get their way.

The outright Hypocrisy and Mendacity of the Democrats never stops.

[MeganC]

What does that sickening whore know about God? How dare she invoke the name of God when she does everything she can to HATE God?

[Rebelbase]

There was a time when people feared excommunication from the Church.

The church has fallen and so have the people.

[Olog-hai]

Baal (and his varieties, especially Baalzebub), Chemosh, Moloch, Astarte . . . any of the false gods, but never the God of Israel.

[FatherofFive]

Hey Nancy - you pollute the world every time you exhale. STOP IT!

No CO2 = no plants = no oxygen = NO HUMAN LIFE!

But keep aborting babies.

[ImNotLying]

Didn’t Nancy play the scarecrow in the wizard of oz......if I only had a brain!

[WorkerbeeCitizen]

am wondering what she knows about God - if anything
