Queen Botoxia had this to say on the 2nd anniversary of Obamacare:
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Wednesday evening that the 2010 healthcare law, which prompted complaints from conservatives that Democrats far exceeded their constitutional authority, actually helps people meet the goal outlined in the Declaration of Independence, which promotes mankind’s rights to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
Speaking on the House floor, Pelosi called on her colleagues to remember “what our founders put forth in our founding documents, which is life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And that is exactly what the Affordable Care Act helps to guarantee.”
Well, Nance, as long as we’re plucking random phrases from the D of I and hotgluing them to Obamacare, here’s a few more choice nuggets from the document you so obviously revere that might be more appropriately attached to this President and his sundry legislations:
______________
 |
* whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it
* a long train of abuses and usurpations
* a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism
* repeated injuries and usurpations
* the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States
* refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
* forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance
* utterly neglected to attend
* the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures
* his invasions on the rights of the people
* exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without
* obstructed the Administration of Justice
* sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance
* subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution
* abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments
* works of death, desolation, and tyranny
* Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation
* excited domestic insurrections amongst us
* Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury
* deaf to the voice of justice
* A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.

Huh…
I guess Nancy was right about the Declaration of Independence applying, just not which parts.
Awesome.
This is a good time to start a slow clap.
Glad you liked it.
Feel free to quote in whole or in part.
And will someone send a link to the Puppy Blender?
He won’t answer my emails. Possibly because I always start them, “Dear Puppy Blender”
Careful now… you don’t want to draw down the wrath of the fearsome TruthTeamer/AttackWatch Gestapo. Those folks are liable to shake their puny fists in your general direction and get patchouli stench on you before shoving you onto a light-rail line to the re-education camps.
Harvey scores BIG TIME!!!
Frank, we need a share button, so that when brilliance like this shines, we can share it with the marxists who think pelousy is human.
Harvey and Frank are making it really hard to get any work done!
BTW, I’m starting to waiver in my support for Frank J. in 2016.
Harvey 2016!
Because there’s an “O” in Harvey Olson!
I thought it was Frank/Harvey 2016? Or is it Harvey/Frank 2016? I can’t ever remember…
Harvey, I think you miss the historical connection between Pelosi and the Declaration. You’ll note that Angus Shufflebottom is one of the signatories. Pelosi is a distant heir of Shufflebottom who announced upon signing the Declaration:
Unfortunately, Shufflebottom’s heirs still haven’t found out what’s inside it.
good job, Harvey.
Here’s proof so many of you were wrong … it’s obvious from Harvey’s work that Bambi has, indeed, read the Constitution and Declaration. How else would have have done so perfect a job of emulating King George?? Washington (DC) has become the new Royal Court … but twice as corrupt!

I like pulling phrases out of the Mayflower Compact:
IN THE NAME OF GOD, AMEN
Having undertaken for the Glory of God, and Advancement of the Christian Faith
in the Presence of God and one another
Anno Domini 1620
The Mayflower Compact? That’s on of those hybrids, right?
Well done Brother Olson. Well done, indeed.
Is it time for the Muskets to the Junk yet?
Perhaps a bit PAST time, I’d say…
Although the teabags to the junk we’ve been throwing the last couple years do seem to having some effect.
Having a Republican House is at least a brake on Obama’s downhill slide.
One of the best IMAO posts ever!
