Speaker Pelosi Founds Committee to Preserve White House Antiquities
Posted by Cadet Happy at 07:18 AM | View blog reactions | Comments (15)

AP (WASHINGTON, D.C.) -- U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and House Appropriations Committee Chairman Dave Obey (D-WI) today announced the formation of a permanent Committee to Preserve White House Antiquities. Obey stated that "The committee will be charged with studying and implementing policies designed to preserve historical items used to decorate the White House." Although decorating decisions are ultimately made by the current President, Congress appropriates the money used to preserve and acquire historical items. According to Pelosi, the need for such a committee was underscored by the candidacy of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin for Vice President. "Given Senator McCain's precarious health, he may not live out a first term if elected, and certainly cannot be expected to run for a second term. Thus, there is a real possibility that a retarded toddler may be loping through the halls of the West Wing in the very near future. As one of the country's leading public servants, it is my solemn duty to ensure that no lasting damage come to our nation's historical artifacts. There will be no: 'Sorry Dolley Madison, the portrait of George Washington you saved before the British burned down the White House has been defaced with permanent marker and paste,' or 'Sorry President Hayes, your State Dinner Service has been used as used as frisbees in the Rose Garden and is smashed in a million pieces,' or 'Sorry Abe Lincoln, a mongloid chewed the rosewood knobs off your guest bed.' Not on my watch." "It is also a matter of public safety," added Pelosi. "I could not live with myself if someone is killed or maimed by Trig using his unnatural strength to throw FDR's Steinway through a White House picture window. Trigg Palin is a public menace, and I demand that if his mother cannot be kept out of the White House, he at least be controlled while she is in it." Pelosi suggests that the committee look into the installation of an invisble fence, or at least a permanent enclosure. "I'm sure a nice 4x6 dog kennel or stainless steel chimpaneze cage would provide more than enough space for a young boy to safely stretch his legs."

After the events of the last week, why do I have the sinking feeling that this isn't too far from the truth?

I could cut off my fingers for defending you. That was a truly ugly piece. There is a line between funny and offensive and you have not only crossed it, you spit and defecated on it.

I should have known better.

#2 - Posted by: seanmahair on September 5, 2008 10:42 AM

There is a flaw in your logic, sir. We can't preserve what we don't have. Until the Clintons return those artifacts, Pelosi's committee will be pretty much twiddling their thumbs. On the bright side, that is one of the things Pelosi is best at.

Just posting her picture is an obscenity. The rest was too densely packed to read.

#4 - Posted by: Astigmatic on September 5, 2008 11:11 AM

The only thing worse than the idea of Pelosi wanting to corral the little tyke is that, had Palin been a liberal, Trig would've been murdered long ago. Y'know, that whole "he won't be a contributing member of society & would only be another useless eater" spiel they're always using to defend abortion... and all while keeping Harry Reid around.

Once again, Cadet Happy = FAIL

OMG that's bad but so funny. I think she really feels that way, along with a lot more liberals...they just don't want to say it out loud.

I started wheezing quietly in my cube...so funny!

#7 - Posted by: aA on September 5, 2008 12:20 PM

It's almost funny 'cause it's almost true.

#8 - Posted by: Corona on September 5, 2008 02:09 PM

I think I need to clean my pants I just laughed so hard. It would not be so funny where the liberals not so absolutely.

Yep, Alan is right on:

"About 90 percent of pregnant women who are given a Down syndrome diagnosis have chosen to have an abortion."

Found this statistic EVERYWHERE. The medical community puts great pressure on women to abort in these situations.

All the more reason to love Sarah.....she's brave enough to be in the 10% and didn't give a hoot what some doctor said. Her child, and others like him, are a blessing and reminder to us all that God doesn't make mistakes.

Oh except for Cadet Happy, Obama, Oprah, and all the rest of his supporters (haha - JUST KIDDING!!)

Oh and hi Seanmahair! I can't get back to that older post for some reason (I am having problems with the IMAO site) but just wanted to say THANKS for the kind advice before (about trolls). I wish I could be half as witty as you, btw! And of course, I think you are a hero, too!

#11 - Posted by: Sulamie on September 5, 2008 04:44 PM

I really like this blog, and we've had a lot of fun at other people's expense here, but with people who are big enough to take care of themselves. In my opinion this goes too far. I doubt anyone in the Palin family could imagine how anyone could find this use of Trig funny, even though Pelosi is the butt of the joke. Everybody has their sensitive spots, I guess this just hit one of mine.

#12 - Posted by: manta on September 5, 2008 09:42 PM

#12 - I agree 150%. Rest assured many of us here do.

#13 - Posted by: Sulamie on September 5, 2008 10:11 PM

I don't think it was all that bad. Considering how the left credits the crime rate in NY bottoming out during Giuliani's time in office, not to his policies, but to widespread abortion among minorities in the 70's, this might not be all that far from the truth.

Look at how they view healthy fetuses; "deformed baby" means the same to them as "pull!" does to us when we're shooting clay pigeons. In their eyes, Trig is a mistake. To them, not aborting a less-than-perfect baby is more shameful than using abortion as monthly birth control.

Physically or mentally challenged children are only useful to them when John Edwards is channeling the dead ones during frivolous lawsuits against the medical profession, or when they have cells they can extract for make-believe scientific breakthroughs.

#14 - Posted by: AlanABQ on September 6, 2008 10:54 PM

Ok, it was funny. Not Rumsfield strangler funny, but pretty funny - in a dark way, considering.

'Trig using his unnatural strength'
