Pelosi: ObamaCare is our Christmas present to America
posted at 7:06 pm on November 11, 2009 by Allahpundit
Via Greg Hengler, this is like “borrowing” a friend’s credit card, buying a car with it, then presenting them with the car on Christmas morning as their “gift.” Nor is it the first time that a prominent Democrat’s imagined your tax dollars as her personal Christmas club account: Remember Hillary’s disgusting holiday ad during the Democratic primaries?
Where do we go to return our “gift,” incidentally? From the new AP poll:
Support is down to 41.8 percent in Mark Blumenthal’s poll of polls, too. Follow the link and check out how Obama’s “bent the curve.” Hey Nancy — guess what you’re getting for Christmas next year.

If this is the Christmas present, then sabbat shalom my friends; I am now Jewish and will not be requiring a Christmas present this year. Thank you Mrs. Pelosi, you may return it to Ponzi’s Department store now.

Something bugs me about many of the responses:
There is nothing wrong with the way Pelosi looks. She is attractive for her age.
What are ugly are her statements and policies.
Saying a reasonably attractive looking woman is hideous, well, that does nothing for our credibility.
Say she is foolish, or wrong, I’m cool with that.

Sideways?

This will be the first Christmas present that made me barf up the cranberry sauce.
Splashman on November 11, 2009 at 7:51 PM
They’re all the same, they all do the same thing and act out the same way. That’s why I put them all in a basket.
If Bleeds Blue says something, I’ll use his words against Grow Fins.
simplesimon went off on my ailing mom, so crr6 pays that penalty when I get chance to use it against him. It’s all the same, the way the libs all truly believe you and me are racist radicals.
Liam on November 11, 2009 at 7:51 PM
Calling Dr. Coburn…time is coming to start reading the bill and keep reading til Christmas.
txmomof6 on November 11, 2009 at 7:52 PM
This woman and her ilk have no problem calling all of us sexual slurs and every name in the book. They are trying to turn this country socialist and take over our lives.
I don’t care what people call her because quite frankly she deserves every comment.
Just my opinion and all that
gophergirl on November 11, 2009 at 7:53 PM
Pelosi obviously leads an extremely sheltered life, considering I have yet to find one person who wants this idiotic healthcare plan of hers!
Keep your stinking Christmas present, liberal scum!
pilamaye on November 11, 2009 at 7:53 PM
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and most people are seeing very little beauty attached to Pelosi. They perceive what they perceive and it matters not what others believe they should see.
rplat on November 11, 2009 at 7:53 PM
I’d so love to give Nancy my Christmas gift; but I’m too old to wait in line that long. It might be a duplicate, and I’d be so embarrassed.
Cybergeezer on November 11, 2009 at 7:53 PM
I would prefer more of a Gunpowder Plot that is better executed.

And when he gets tired DeMint takes over and so on and so on.
You know the ones that can really do some damage are the ones retiring. They don’t have to worry about being reelected so pull out all the stops.
gophergirl on November 11, 2009 at 7:54 PM
Maybe do something libs can’t: Enjoy the Holiday and be with those you love. Surely, they all love you back.
Libs don’t really have that. Christmas, to them as they have shown for years, is political.
Sick and demented, derelict, really.
Love as you are, and by those who love you back. If there’s any such thing as magic, that’s it.
Just an idea.
Liam on November 11, 2009 at 7:54 PM
WTF!!!!
“CHRISTMAS”??????
WHERE’S “SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE”????
HOW DARE THE DEM LIBS INSERT A RELIGIOUS HOLIDAY INTO THE LEGISLATIVE PROCESS!!!
NO “X-MAS” PRESENTS REQUESTED OR WANTED HERE, MADAME SPEAKER!
MAKE YOUR DAMN “HEALTH CARE REFORM” A “HAJJ” PRESENT, you stupid islamic psychopath sympathizer.
DON’T YOU DARE interject Christianity into your insanity!!!

I guess BO has changed his MO.
“In a magazine interview Obama and his wife Michelle revealed that one of their steadfast house rules is not giving Christmas or birthday presents to Malia, 10, and Sasha, seven.”

They merely sell the nation out to special interests paving their road to private sector recompense. I am begining to think along cold-war lines. Y’know, like Matually Assurred Destruction & deterrence. Something along the lines of a couple of the most egregious offenders dangling from the Washington monument with the birds picking their bones as a reminder to the rest.
It’s not a proposal mind you as I’ve no desire for Feds at my door, but gee…it does warm the heart to think about.

pelosi’s idea of a Christmas present is extremely warped and besides, doesn’t she realize Christmas cannot be celebrated; only worthless muslim absurdities are OK?
jgdp on November 11, 2009 at 8:21 PM
If something Pelosi and the other libs like those who post here is going to be a Christmas present, I’ll give myself a lobotomy and make myself a drooling atheist.
How DARE atheists like Pelosi invoke the Name of the God they deny and seek to thwart at every turn?
Won’t they be in for a shock when they face Him.
Liam on November 11, 2009 at 8:22 PM
10% unemployment (really 20%) was the democrat gift to America. Our gift to you democrats will be your unemployment, for every one of you, in Washington D.C. just in time for Christmas ’10.
Mojave Mark on November 11, 2009 at 8:24 PM
Whoa, those are some really thick beer goggles you are sporting there. She is a harriden that is ugly inside and outside not to mention mean spirited and evil. One more face lift and she will have a soul patch on her chin.
Aviator on November 11, 2009 at 8:25 PM
What? I thought Christmas was cancelled this year due to the high unemployment. Did Rudolph the red nose Reid deer with his nose so bright tell Santa Pelosi that he’d guide the sleigh that night? Don’t forget to stop by the amnesty island of misfit illegals Santa. They surely deserve a good home too to made well at the American taxpayers expense. It will only cost trillions of dollars with the promise of jail time if you don’t put any skin in. I can see a lot of jails being constucted in the future. Now there is a jobs bill that the democrats can get behind. Oh wait, the democrats will just start an early release program for sexual predators, bank robbers, car thieves, etc, ….. That will create a lot of free jail space for those Americans who think that this HR3200 is unconstitutional.
Americannodash on November 11, 2009 at 8:26 PM
OT here I know, but as there are many Rand fans here in HA I just hadta share. Is Cuba (appropriately) the first wehre the motor of the world has stopped?
http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/N11371755.htm
Certainly has the distinct sound of it hunh. Iturned my mom on to Rand a little while back, she wasn’t real happy with alot Rand’s positions on religion as she’s ultra-religious (Deaconess)but she’s no commie either. Anyways she is always complaining how no seem to be able to live up to their commitments in biz or otherwise.
To which I shrug and say, “motor of the world ma“, she’ susually none too happy when I say it, but she’s starting to “get-it” now.
Unfortunately, it may not be much longer till alot of people “get-it” as well. Rand’s far-sighted pronostications are eerily prescient.

Fascist Pelosi can take her Christmas present and shove it up her A$$ with a stocking full of coal along with it!!!!!
corvettelady on November 11, 2009 at 8:27 PM
That’s the funniest thing I’ve seen all day. She calls this a gift? Has she got dementia? If it’s such a nice gift why doesn’t she wrap it and put it under her own tree. It’s a gift I’d like to regift…to her.
scalleywag on November 11, 2009 at 8:29 PM
I can not believe the sh** that spews from this woman’s mouth. Truly.
Seriously, she is not of this world.

Obamacare is our Christmas present? More than ever, I’m happy to be Jewish. Since Chanukah lasts eight nights, and so the presents tend to be smaller, can I drop a hint for tort reform for the second night?
smellthecoffee on November 11, 2009 at 8:35 PM
Geeze, when I saw the headline, I immediately wanted to post “I’d rather have a stocking full of coal.”… But so many of you are smarter and faster than I, so I won’t.
But really, I could use some coal… Thinking of firing up the ol’ forge again sometime and making some more ‘damascus’.

Yo, Nance, that idiocy is like having your identity stolen and having to pay up all of the charges attached to your name and numbers.
Besides, ObaMao doesn’t believe in celebrating Christmas, so there should be no gifts for him.
I personally do not believe that I owe ObaMao anything.

Good Lt on November 11, 2009 at 9:41 PM
Dude, I would appreciate your effort at trying to be the adult in the room; however, I went to the beginning of the posts and there were only a couple that talked about ugliness. So, you are exaggerating for unknown reasons.
Most are talking about how she is a wealthy, elitist, control freak who has no clue (or desire to know) how life works for most Americans. Maybe I’m exaggerating, are you cool with that?
yubley on November 11, 2009 at 9:42 PM

GarandFan on November 11, 2009 at 9:46 PM
Obamacare as a Christmas present for America is as useful as the Old Spice deoderant gift set I once received in an office gift exchange that had apparently been used and had an armpit hair left under the cap.
Don’t want it! Don’t need it! Won’t use it!
glennbo on November 11, 2009 at 9:50 PM
I’ve never had a Christmas present delivered rectally before. Then again, it’s probably the makings of a new cliche. Instead of, “Take and aspirin and call me in the morning,” it’ll be, “Take a suppository and call me in the morning.” Yeah, it’s crude, but probably close to the truth.

Root of Pelosi hemlock digged in the dark

Liam,,,, I don’t think Nancy is a liberal, she is a total leftist and has the same mind as Simple. She insults half the population of the US and there is nothing liberal about her. true libs accept and tolerate all views. This vermin doesn’t and only accepts opinions of her ilk.
garydt on November 11, 2009 at 10:33 PM
OMG I can’t read that headline without framing it in some kind of horror-movie skin.
“Merry Christmas,” says the chainsaw-murderer Pelosi in the Santa hat…
“Merry Christmas,” says Nancy Pelosi as she morphs into an alien and rips your head off…
Oh god, make it stop.
