Pelosi "Nearly Crying" While America "Nearly Dying"

Hit Barack Obama with a dose of reality, and Nancy Pelosi cries.
Make that “nearly” cries to squeeze out every ounce of publicity there for the taking when a statesman FINALLY has the floor in joint Congress.
“I nearly cried” is what a 4-year-old tells his buddy when explaining how his mother wouldn’t let him have a second ice cream cone during yesterday’s family outing.
“House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday blasted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress about Iran’s nuclear ambitions, calling it a condescending affront to U.S. intelligence. (The Week, March 3, 2015)
Surely, with a US intelligence now under the command of Obama czars claiming there is no such thing as ‘Islamic Terrorism’, it’s the security of the population that’s a “condescending affront”.
“That is why, as one who values the U.S.–Israel relationship, and loves Israel, I was near tears throughout the Prime Minister’s speech — saddened by the insult to the intelligence of the United States as part of the P5 +1 nations, and saddened by the condescension toward our knowledge of the threat posed by Iran and our broader commitment to preventing nuclear proliferation,” Pelosi said in a statement.

Pelosi, one of the loudest braying donkeys
critical of House Speaker John Boehner’s invite to
Netanyahu, did not throw in with the large
group of Democrats who boycotted the address.
That’s mainly because she had to be inside the
chamber so she could do a walk-out before Netanyahu
left and perform her “nearly cried” Hollywood
routine.
All Obama really wants to do is to give Iran the bomb, and all Pelosi really wants to do is make sure Obama gets it to give.
While Pelosi was “nearly crying” in the Congress Chamber, Obama was doing his yakety-yak routine with Western leaders British Prime Minister David Cameron, French President François Hollande, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi and European Commission President Donald Tusk in a YakFest about the Ukraine and foreign policy, during a video conference in the nearby Situation Room.
Take that, Mr. Putin. That kind of unified yak will be driving you out of the Ukraine any day now.
Noteworthy that when Pelosi was “nearly crying”, America as a nation was nearly dying.
For, on the very same day, the House approved a DHS funding bill ending the immigration standoff with Obama.
“The House voted Tuesday to fund the Homeland Security Department through the end of the budget year, ending a protracted standoff that centered on objections to President Obama’s controversial immigration actions. (FoxNews, March 3, 2015)
“The House voted 257-167 for the legislation, which includes no immigration provisions, and was carried over the finish line with mostly Democratic votes. In a statement late Tuesday, President Obama said he would sign the legislation as soon as it reached his desk.
“On behalf of the approximately 225,000 men and women of the Department of Homeland Security, we thank those in Congress—Democrats and Republicans—who voted for this bill and, in particular, those in Congress who showed the leadership necessary to get the job done,” DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson said in a statement Tuesday afternoon.
“The result is a victory for the Obama administration. Republicans had tried to use the DHS funding bill as the vehicle to reverse Obama’s immigration executive actions. But Democrats repeatedly blocked the move, insisting they pass the spending bill with no riders attached.
“House Speaker John Boehner, faced with diminishing options, earlier in the day told fellow Republican lawmakers he would drop the immigration demands.”
When the braying of donkeys is joined by the trumpeting of elephants, some important deaths go completely unnoticed.
Meanwhile, there’s a message for all fountain of youth chasers who secretly need to know: You can’t smile when you’re good to go with Botox but you can “nearly cry”.
Nancy Pelosi just proved it.
