Oh yeah, Nancy Pelosi invented the practice... *eyeroll* The ceremony for the important piece of legislation (and treaty) was like most such ceremonies with multiple pens used by the President to hand out.

Just like Obama did and Bush did and Clinton did and Bush did and Reagan did and Carter did and Ford did...

Pelosi was merely mocking the American people when she did her stunt. At a whopping $9k a pen (vs the still expensive but much more moderate $150-$200 pens handed out at White House signing ceremonies.)

At the next big democrat signing Pelosi should follow Governor Lepetomane’s lead in Blazing Saddles and hand out paddle balls.

Thanks for that. The presidential practice of handing out of pens has been around forever as you say. It was that disgusting turd Pelosi who mocked the office of the President and us. Just like she did with that super-sized gavel for Obamacare.

Exactly right.

And now she and her minions have four days to wallow in the fact that her pens will be nothing more than a timeless reminder of her arrogance and stupidity.

Momentous act? Hilarious.
