To her credit, it’s the same number of letters as fire.
Nancy Pelosi has been very confused this year. She keeps calling President Trump “President Bush” and continues to struggle with her vocabulary.
The latest example happened in an interview with KRON when she “mixed her metaphors,” as The Washington Free Beacon reported, when talking about what the First Amendment does and doesn’t cover when it comes to free speech.
"The Constitution does not say that a person can shout — yell wolf in a crowded theater,” Pelosi said, stumbling. “If you are endangering people, then you don’t have a constitutional right to do that.”
Perhaps yelling “wolf” in a theater could be frightening for Alaskans, but everywhere else, “fire” is the magic word.

That’s actually a pretty good one!
I hope and pray that someone shouts, “WOLF!” at her next news conference - just to get people asking what its all about. Then she could be subjected to a thorough session of being made fun of by most of social media.
Those whom the gods would destroy they first make mad. And Pelosi has been a special project of theirs for years.
She actually said, “You can’t shout ‘theater’ at a crowd of wolves.”
There's a very old saying: "You Can’t Yell ‘Wolf’ In A Crowded Theater". Well,
let me tell you, I agree with that 100%! And, furthermore...
Never mind!
Lisa Douglas: Why do you want to irritate your corn?
Oliver Douglas: Irrigate. It means to put water on it.
Lisa Douglas: I guess that’s why I love you. You’re always hollering, but underneath you have a soft spot in your head.
Oliver: Heart!
CNN's *Wolf* Blitzer, in a crowded theater to moderate a presidential debate
The original reason for the law was not the crowded and confined space per se (hardly unique in an urban setting), but because early-era film was highly flammable.
I suspect the estimable Nancy Pelosi knows this, and was modernizing the idiom to reflect the growing wolf population in such Democrat strongholds as Michigan.
What I don't understand is, how in heck did the wolf get into the theater! Did someone leave a door open??
Never mind!

She probably meant “you can’t shout wolf in a crowded zoo” - let’s not be so hard on her......
