Queen Nancy scoffs at her plummeting poll numbers; Horrors! A Botax?

By Michelle Malkin  •  July 27, 2009 03:31 PM

Scroll for update…

Like Marie Antoinette, Woman of the People Nancy Pelosi doesn’t really care what the hoi polloi think of her.

Let them eat…her Gulfstream exhaust.

Via Politico:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is one of the most despised political figures in the country.

And, frankly, she doesn’t give a damn.

“No, I don’t care,” Pelosi told POLITICO last Thursday, laughing heartily as she walked beneath the Capitol dome and plunged into a crowd of tourists.

Last week’s Public Strategies Inc./POLITICO poll brought grim news for Pelosi, revealing that only a quarter of Americans trust the San Francisco Democrat — putting her in the basement with Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio).

Mention of the “trust” question halted the click-clack of Pelosi’s heels against Rotunda marble, and she turned to face the reporter who posed the question.

“I don’t know about ‘trust’ — I think I’m trusted,” she said.

“I certainly want to be trusted. I’m not particularly concerned if I’m liked.”

But month after month of polling shows that the speaker is neither trusted nor liked by the general public — even as she emerges from one of the most productive legislative periods any speaker has ever enjoyed.

“One of the most productive legislative periods any speaker has ever enjoyed?”

Translation: One of the largest-spending, massive-taxing, deliberative democracy-undermining legislative periods taxpayers have suffered.

I think it’s only a matter of time before San Fran Nan has a public meltdown like her Bay Area sister, Babs Boxer.

Tick, tick, tick…

Commenter Dexter A.:

“L’maison, c’est moi.” says she.

Still haven’t forgotten the great welcome mat Houston Tea Party activists rolled out for Pelosi. Remember?

Botox-ic!

He dragged the US into war in Europe and she’s going to drag us into socialism and super-sized big government.

    You mean another meltdown. She has already had several, including the time she was caught lying about the CIA and about not being briefed on waterboarding. When she was briefed near the end of 2002, she claimed that waterboarding was mentioned but she wasn’t told it was going to be used. However, she admits that she learned about the use of waterboarding just a few months later in early 2003.

    So why didn’t she do something about waterboarding in 2003? She said it was because she was too busy working to get democrats elected and campaigning for Speaker of the House. If you really believed that waterboarding was torture, wouldn’t you at least take the time to write a letter of protest? It’s a good thing that the media has her back because only today’s legacy media would attempt to spin that in Pelosi’s favor.

    Pelotox is as safe as any politician can be. Her constituents are the San Francisco homosexuals who have day time “street fairs” that feature orgies of sexual activity in public.

    America may hate her, but as long as she is beloved in Sodom by the Bay, and her fellow travellers in the House, who pretend not to be Marxists to fool the rubes at home, keep electing her Speaker, she is in that job forever.

    If the Dems do lose seats in 2010, most will be the closet Marxists, aka ‘The Blue Dogs’, giving the open Marxists even more influence within the Demonratic caucus.

    The only way Pelotox loses the Speaker’s gavel is retirement or a GOP takeover of the House. Which is why GOP candidates should make frequent use of Pelotox and the Dem leadership in camapign ads.

    She doesn’t give a flyin’ turd that she is supposed to be the Speaker of the House and she just admitted this.

    Being speaker is, as she says, an inside job. Pelosi is insulated from the negative effects of low national poll numbers because she answers only to two micro-constituencies — her mostly affluent, overwhelmingly liberal Bay Area district and a 262-member Democratic caucus

    This is astounding, arrogant, partisan, hateful and un-American as you can get.

    This should be reason enough to get her gone forever.

    Due to gerrymandering, SanFran Nan represents the most liberal portion of the most liberal city in the country, so the odds are high that she will be re-elected in 2010.

    She won in 2006 with 80% of the vote.
    In 2008, she won with 71% of the vote.

    But it is not only the voters of her district that matter! Removing her from the Speaker of the House position has to be a nationwide effort!

    It is the Democrats in congress who elected her to be Speaker of the House!

    She wouldn’t be nearly as dangerous if she wasn’t Speaker.

    To remove her from the Speaker position, either the Republicans need to regain the majority in the House in 2010 or Democrats in congress need to be convinced that aligning themselves with her is completely toxic!

    So voters in every single congressional district in the country can help to remove her from the speakership!

    Make sure your congressional rep. doesn’t take any money from her!

    *I suspect Nazi Pelosi doesn’t realize that many Dems in the House are none too happy with her; A lot of those looney tunes will not get blown out in 2010, but many short timers will, and they will have her to thank for it.
    *On the question of trust, if you trust any politician in D.C. any higher than zero, you have to be insane.
    *And after Pelosi, it gets no better from a leadership standpoint; Steny the Hoyer, give me a break.

    I would kill to have you on my team for Trivial Pursuit!! I’m pretty good and you would be awesome!

    Thank you, but you flatter me too much. I partly remembered the quote, but I had to search to get it right. Trivial Pursuit, I guess I hold my own as long as it’s not about Latin. Now trivia about F-Troop, and I’ll kill you all day.

    I’m not suggesting ANYTHING, but this came in an email yesterday and I thought it tangentially relevant in a humorous, non-serious sort of way…

    While discussing the upcoming Universal Health Care Program with my sister-in-law the other day, I think we have found the solution. I am sure you have heard the ideas that if you’re a senior you need to suck it up and give up the idea that you need any health care. A new hip? Unheard of. We simply can’t afford to take care of you anymore. You don’t need any medications for your high blood pressure, diabetes, heart problems, etc. Let’s take care of the young people. After all, they will be ruling the world very soon.

    So here is the solution. When you turn 70, you get a gun and 4 bullets. You are allowed to shoot 2 senators and 2 representatives. Of course, you will be sent to prison where you will get 3 meals a day, a roof over your head and all the health care you need!!! New teeth, great!!! Need glasses, no problem. New hip, knee, kidney, lung, heart? Well bring it on. And who will be paying for all of this. The same government that just told you that you are too old for health care. And, since you are a prisoner, you don’t have to pay any income tax.

    I really think we have a Perfect Solution!!!

    And again, I point out this is only to show how convicted murderers would be treated better under our new health care masters than the average citizen would.

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is one of the most despised political figures in the country.

    And, frankly, she doesn’t give a damn.

    “No, I don’t care,”

    This is good news. Politico is far from an objective journalism source. However, they are the political feed to a lot of local stations.

    Now, if and when SF throws her overboard, only then can we claim positive progress. Yes, I prefer my roadkill stiff.

    Who can ever forget Corporal Agarn’s lookalike cousin from Europe, known as the “Burglar From Banff” (pronounced as Banfuhfuh)?

    Mention of the “trust” question halted the click-clack of Pelosi’s heels against Rotunda marble,

    They’re hooves.

    Here’s how it works. Dems only love other Dems. All Dems hate Republicans or anything resembling a conservative. Independents aren’t sure who they hate or don’t hate. Republicans are, many times, unsure if they’re really Republicans and so, try to get Dems to like them by acting like them. All of them are power-hungry, treasonous fools. The only way to get rid of Pelosi is to convince Dems she’s got to go. These Dems will, in turn, convince the Republicans they’re right and, fawningly, the Republicans will go along (except for the one or two real conservatives).So, the plan is to convince Dems to get rid of her. Good luck with that…
