House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calf.) spoke on Monday at the University of California at Berkeley in a conversation with former Sen. Barbara Boxer (D.-Calif.) and during that conversation asserted that she had never “intended to run for Congress.”

“I never intended to run for Congress and I certainly never intended to run for leadership,” Pelosi said. “But, when the opportunity came, I was ready. So, I was very policy and legislative oriented. So, I knew my brief there as speaker.”

Pelosi went on to say that she had been deemed a hero for various moments when she mocked President Donald Trump.

“You work so hard. You pass the Affordable Care Act. You pass things—all these bills,” said Pelosi. “You tear up a speech, you’re a hero. You give him one of these [clapping her hands], you’re a hero.” …

I never intended to run for Congress and I certainly never intended to run for leadership

...but I found the money was fantastic, and it didn't require any brains or wisdom, so how could I say no?

> Nancy Pelosi: ‘I Never Intended to Run for Congress’ <

And I never intended to call Pelosi a corrupt, lying piece of garbage. But I did anyway. It sort of just happened.

Nancy inspires me, so much so I was inspired to write this lil diddy,,

Sung to tune of FLIPPER

And they call them GRIFTERS
GRIFTERS
GRIFTERS of thee

No one you see
Steals more completely

And we know that GRIFTERS
Steal all not nailed down

across the town
Hiding their graft, hiding it fast

They all love to take, all they don’t make

Ever so low, as low as can go
Bait and switch,
adults or kids they’ll bewitch

And they laugh at taking your cash

They are called GRIFTERS
GRIFTERS
GRIFTERS of we

Stealing from you
Stealing from me

And we know that GRIFTERS
Steal all not nailed down

Stealing from me
Stealing from thee.

We are supposed to believe this drivel?

She never intended to run for Congress? Then why in the heck did she ever do that? When the opportunity came uo, why didn’t she just say no???

She ran for Congress and eventually became Speaker of the House. But we are supposed to believe how she never intended Any of this to happen.

Have you forgotten doublethink?

That is how Pelosi thinks and always has thought.

She couldn’t run fast enough for Congress once the Burton family horror bought the farm.

Probably being almost honest here. She is basically admitting she wasn't interested in representing her constituents. Apparently what she was interested in was money and power. Congress was just an opportunity to acquire them.

Not an accident. She signed up for a career criminal and it morphed into guberment work.

...I just intended to find a way to become rich beyond my wildest dreams regardless of the ethics or laws involved, and found that being in Congress was the best way to get it done.
