I cannot say the Democrats have reached peak absurdity, because every time I have considered that they might just have done all they can do, they find some other way to impress me.
I do think they are plumbing depths of delusion and depravity unlike any other time during my lifetime, but it is an open question if we have reached the bottom of their Mariana Trench of Obnoxiousness yet. When they are allowed to make up issues and fight straw men all day long, I guess there really is no limit to how deep they can go.
Every time I see Nancy Pelosi these days I think of Faye Dunaway’s portrayal of Joan Crawford in Mommy Dearest, the 1981 movie based on the 1978 tell-all book by Christina Crawford, Joan’s adopted daughter.
Pelosi demonstrates insane, controlling and erratic behavior all the time, several times speaking in public when it appears she has just crawled out of a bottle of gin.
No wire hangers!
That is essentially what the Pelosi and the Democrats are telling America.
Mommy buys you nice clothes to wear so that you don’t embarrass her in public, and you treat them with such disrespect?
Why, you would think you are simply showing disrespect for Mommy.
Mommy will just take your things and throw them away. How would you like that? Do you think you could be happy without your things?
You simply don't deserve the things Mommy Dearest has given you, you ungrateful little ingrates, so there will be no cheap gasoline for you and by the way, your allowance will go down and the prices you pay for the things you need will continue to go up - until you learn your lesson.
Mommy will end your jobs and then use “stimulus” money to control your behavior. Mommy will refuse to give you enough money for basic living expenses but will take you out for expensive meals from time to time, at taxpayer expense of course, just to show you how much Mommy loves you.
Got that?
You won't be allowed to play with your friends because you can't be trusted. Mommy will tell you who you can play with. As a matter of fact, you have a play date with the Ukrainians down the street tomorrow.
Mommy built this country and by damn, she is going to continue to sit on the board of directors as long as she lives (there was a scene in the movie in the Pepsi board room where Crawford said pretty much that).
You will not raise your voice to mommy or oppose her in any way, or there will be real consequences – unconstitutional consequences. If you don’t want to eat what Mommy provides for you, you will just go without until you change your mind.
Mommy’s fans love her and will continue to love her - she will treat them and their children well, but you don't deserve to be treated well because Mommy knows who you really are.
The real problem here is you just don't love Mommy enough.
Mommy sees it and she will do everything to correct your misguided behavior.
It is all for you, my dear. Mommy is doing all of this for you. She just wants what is best for you.
No wire hangers!
Holy crap! Can’t you just hear Pelosi screaming that from the dais in the House, while pounding her gavel with one hand and waving a wire hanger at the GOP side of the aisle with the other!
It is almost too perfect, isn’t it?
I couldn't be more troubled by the DC nut jobs. And they appear to be prevailing. Where are the Republicans?
Wow. Great analogy, Mike c
