Now I'm LMFAO at Nancy Pelosi

Thanks to Jonah Goldberg, great piece. Punchline is highlighted in bold.

Nancy Pelosi, who will get her own bound volume in the annals of asininity, has outdone herself. When asked by a reporter whether the protests at various town-hall meetings represented legitimate grassroots opposition or were manufactured “AstroTurf” stunts, she replied, “I think they’re AstroTurf. You be the judge. They’re carrying swastikas and symbols like that to a town meeting on health care.”

Now this is a pas de trois of dishonesty, slander, and idiocy. Not only is Pelosi lying when she says protesters are bringing swastikas to these town halls, not only is she suggesting that American citizens are Nazis for having the effrontery to get in the way of Obamacare, but she’s also saying that the alleged swastikas are obvious proof that these protests are manufactured by slick P.R. gurus.

How does that work? What public-relations genius says: “Okay, we need these protests to seem like an authentic backlash of real Americans. Make sure everyone has enough Nazi paraphernalia!”

LMFAO.

  1. That woman flat out makes me sick. I would tell her she's a liar to her ugly, botoxed face if I had the chance.

  2. I think she is vying for the title of most hated women in America. Wait, I think she's already got that title. She makes Lady Macbeth and Lucrezia Borgia look like candidates for sainthood.

    Thanks for all these great recent posts, Pauli. Only reason I don't respond to most of them is that I am too exhausted and brain-dead.
