Pelosi Helps Wash Immigrants' Feet: Says Passing Amnesty Will Reduce Deficit By $1Trillion

Original Title:Pelosi Assists in Holy Week Foot-Washing Ritual

To "honor the dignity and work of immigrants," Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi helps Bishop Marc Andrus wash the feet of two children Thursday at Saint John the Evangelist Episcopal Church in San Francisco.

Pelosi also used the occasion to talk about passing HR15 - bipartisan immigration legislation that her office says would "reduce the deficit by nearly $1 trillion, secure our borders, unite our families, protect our workers and provide an earned pathway to citizenship."

The Democratic leader's ceremony coincides with Pope Francis' similar ceremony in Rome to mark Holy Week. As he did last year, the pope broke with the tradition of washing only priests' feet during the Mass for the Last Supper - this time, washing the feet of disabled people.

Holding the water, Pelosi said: “Are there any babies for me to baptize?? Oops...forgot...we murdered them.”

What she meant to say is pass the immigration bill to find out what’s in it.

"Passing Amnesty Will Reduce Deficit By $1 Trillion".

I wonder what the hell she's been smoking. Or maybe all that Botox has gone to her brain. She's now a Mega-Ditz.

It would never happen but it would have been great if the Bishop (in front of everyone) would have made Pelosi openly declare that she is no longer in favor of abortion. And then when she refused to do that the Bishop would make her leave the church in utter shame walking down the aisle to her waiting limo.

Notice that she didn’t do it at a Catholic church.

It’s true — a full trillion dollars will come out of the deficit because these new Americans will demand the end to government overspending, starting with the repeal of Obamacare.

Humility? Do so without a photo-op is a sign of humility not what she is doing by having her picture taken which is a phony as her.

Once you realize Pelosi is criminally insane, everything makes sense.

Does the holy water wash off the blood of the unborn babies that she considers her sacred duty to abort?

She is among the most disgusting human beings alive.

I was the recipient of a ‘foot washing’ many years ago...This woman really cheapens the experience...The parents of those kids have to be some really biblically ignorant suckers to allow this to happen to their kids...
