What happened to Pelosi’s hair? Is this white getup for them all to celebrate Pelosi’s “transition”?

Abrams gave a response that is mired in the past. The first thing she talked about was last months news, the shutdown, which only affected less than 1% of the workforce, mostly concentrated in DC. She fed the stereotype by expressing concern for the lower class who she claims is being downtrodden while ignoring how Trump has helped the lower class by improving the jobs outlook— arguably the best possible help. What is Abrams solution, in most cases? in one form or another, evidently, income redistribution. It’s boring and certainly nothing new or particularly exciting.

When America watched Abrams I suspect that what they saw reflected in her face and heard from her message is not the face of an America choosing greatness, it is the face of a nation of pandhandlers, the chronically unemployable, welfare recipients, the siren song of socialism and the same old tax and spend, soak the rich message the democrats invariably come up with every single chance they get.

I noticed it, too and pointed it out to my husband. I think she was looking at the script to see how much longer it was going to go. It was incredibly unprofessional. It’s not like no one could see her!!

The media is simply feeding some hate to the followers. The audience wants hate, so they give them some hate. They are not on a diet. They need hate to grow fat with hate.

Rebuttal speech a great time to walk the dog. However, either way, you get dog crap.

Probably Pelosi has the idea to promote women in Congress. They are showing off the power they have to stick together, wearing similar outfits.

Perhaps, but all they accomplished was to look like a bunch of vanilla ice cream sticks (the kind observation), or KKK women without the pointy hats (the tougher observation).

“Kudos to your daughter!! God bless her success! And I can relate, because my husband and I watched him for years on the Apprentice and came to respect and admire him as a tough but kind, brilliant man with a heart for others.”

Thank you! She’s 48, so she decided she wanted to be like him when she was a teenager! I wondered how my B-C high school student would ever become a multi-millionaire. HA! She did it. I thank Donald Trump everyday! Now....she has instilled the “work hard to succeed” in her son. He’s a gem! Will graduate from college this coming May...Engineering degree. Made all A’s last semester.

Ah, found it:

Before the Speaker calls each session of the House to order, the coin silver inkstand is placed on the Speaker’s lectern. The inkstand is considered the oldest surviving relic of the House, dating from between 1810 and 1820. Although its origins are mysterious, it most likely came into the House around 1819, when the old Chamber (now Statuary Hall) was first in use. The inkstand’s earliest record is an 1821 portrait of Henry Clay in the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, where is pictured on a table at Clay’s side. The inkstand is stamped with the mark of J. Leonard, a Georgetown silversmith and watch maker. The tray contains three crystal inkwells and is adorned on both sides by swags and medallions with eagles. The feet of the tray take the form of fasces with snakes winding around them, a classical symbol of wisdom supporting authority and the strength of unity.

The inkstand is made of coin silver (.90 purity), and has a rectangular shape, measuring 11 ¼ inches long by 7 inches wide by 2 ½ inches deep. It has a hinged handle, which stands six inches in height. Three pressed glass ink containers sit in the stand.
