Nancy Pelosi’s on her last legs
NY Post ^ | 7/25/2021 | Miranda Devine

Posted on 07/25/2021 11:24:47 PM PDT by Oshkalaboomboom

Nancy Pelosi used to point her angry finger at Donald Trump, but she leaves him for dust when it comes to busting norms, dividing Congress and causing mayhem. If anyone is to blame for the hyper-partisanship in Washington these days, it’s the spiteful House speaker.

She behaves more like a Mafia don waging a gang war than a dignified, fair and honest presiding officer, which is what the speaker’s role requires.

Pelosi abuses her power in ways that once were unthinkable. Her speakership has been the antithesis of Lincoln’s entreaty to “the better angels of our nature.” Everyone in Congress — and by extension the nation — has been sullied by the spite and vitriol she has injected into the political sphere. There is no grace or Christian charity, just the barren wasteland of the zero-sum game, power for power’s sake.

It’s made all the worse by her increasingly frantic claims to be a “devout Catholic.”

The fact that all this venom is packaged in the shape of a small, elderly, expensively shod woman has bestowed upon her an element of deference her actions do not deserve. But last week there were a couple of signs that she’s finally worn out her welcome.

One was her game-playing over the Jan. 6 select committee, when she arbitrarily rejected two Republicans — Jim Jordan of Ohio and Jim Banks of Indiana — from an already stacked panel.

She claimed “integrity” required her veto since the two Republicans had “made statements and taken actions that I think would impact the integrity of the committee.”

Hah. This is a committee which includes such models of integrity as Adam “Steele Dossier” Schiff.

Pelosi is scared of Jordan and Banks, even though she has the majority.

There is a special place in Hell reserved for her but she is going to take advantage of whatever time she has left to do as much as she can to destroy our country.

I will be as dignified to Pelosi as the democrats were when Tony Snow was diagnosed with colon cancer.

The less time she realizes she has left, the more extreme he behavior becomes.

Can’t blame her a bit.

Her single best hope is to die in office feared and at the top of her power like Stalin so she does not end up like Beria.

Byrd, Kennedy, McCain... They wouldn’t let go of the lightning and thunder in their hands. To feel Federal power coursing through you even as your life ebbs away...

Snakes don't need legs.

Nanzi has stuffed in Nationalized mail voting into a bill using a process that was only meant for running the Government and therefore immune to the Filibuster. This outrageous abuse of power must be defeated in any way it can be defeated. If it passes America dies.

Nancy is a span from Hell and will be burning in the lake of fire on judgement day.

Honestly, how long is it going to be before some of these aged out dems start dying off?

They are so old, and yet just keep going.

It’s almost like they are doing something nefarious to keep themselves going.

Whenever someone mentions that, I get reminded of an old saying my mother told me, “The devil takes care of his own” . . .

She’s on her last legs; Waters has wooden legs and brain - hoping termites find her this season; and Kamala Harris has spent most of her political career on her knees.

All fools, all traitors, all psychopaths.

No republican has won in Oregon since mail in voting began in 1987.
MAIL IN VOTING=UNCONSTITUTIONAL FRAUD

Gotta give her credit. Whenever ever the democrats vote on something it’s always unanimous. Not one dissenting vote. They must really fear her. Like the devil.
