Along Life’s Way
Petulant,
Partisan Pelosi
By Lois E. Wilson
FINAL TALLY
A talk host states, “As to the Fates
For what it’s worth—
If it should be that I would be
The last man on Earth
And Pelosi would seem to be
The last woman on Earth,
With that dismal account,
I’d demand a recount!”
In 2011, I wrote the above verse after hearing radio talk show host,
Neal Boortz, make the declaration. Nancy Pelosi is becoming more and
more quotable these days and acting a little petulant too. Some of her
quotes from the past are:
*But we have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it away
from the fog of the controversy.
*I believe in natural gas as a clean, cheap alternative to fossil fuels.
*Unemployment benefits are creating jobs faster than practically any
other program.
*If I had my way, sporting guns would be strictly regulated, the rest
would be confiscated.
*As many of you know, I came from San Francisco. We don’t have a lot of
farms there. Well, we do have one—it’s a mushroom farm, so you know
what that means.
*Our view of the law is that if somebody is here without sufficient
documentation, that is not reason for deportation.
More recent quotes of hers are:
*It’s the end of the world. The debate on health care is life/death.
This is Armageddon.
*This is like giving you a bowl of doggie doo, put a cherry on
top, call it a chocolate sundae. This is nothing.
*In terms of the bonus that corporate America received versus the
crumbs that they are giving workers to kind of put the schmooze on is
so pathetic. It’s so pathetic.
My observation is that Trump has reached his hand across the aisle;
however, will the other side show up, will its members slap it,
put a fist in his face, sit on their hands, or will they for the sake
of our country and its citizens shake it in good faith so that they can
solve problems together?
