“ACTING LIKE A COMPLETE IDIOT”
by OPOVV, ©2020
(Feb. 6, 2020) — “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to ‘The Pulse of the Nation,’ broadcasting from one of the centers of channeling some kind of mystic cosmic mumbo-jumbo from the other side; is that about it, Madam Shylock?”
“First the money, and may I remind you, you get what you pay for. ‘If you pay a lot, you get a lot’: that’s my motto.”
“Will you take a check? Just kidding. Here’s some cash; will that be enough?”
“One question.”
“Very well, one question. At the end of the greatest Speech of the Union in the history of our Republic, the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, stood-up and ceremoniously ripped up the speech, showing her disdain, contempt and out-and-out hatred for not only our president, but for our country as well. Why?”
“In a word: nuts.”
“That’s it, that’s all you got to say?”
“Another question requires more money. Come on, Roving, you gave me a ten and a five: get real. Now hand it over, for real this time. Thank you; now you’re talking or I guess I should say now I’m talking.”
“Okay, what is it with the Pelosi character? What’s wrong with her?”
“I’m afraid she’s suffering from what Professor Zorkophsky calls the ‘Retirement Boomerang Syndrome’ he wrote about in his ‘The Psychiatrist’s Handbook: A Lexicon of Professional Catch Words to Increase Fees.’ To make a long story short, she’s past her prime and doesn’t know it.”
“Is there a cure? Is there any hope for her?”
“I’m afraid her prognosis is dim; matter of fact, she was lost even before she began. Negative people take away from the common good; they diminish the future for all and jinx the chances for honesty seeing the light of day. People like Pelosi live in the shadows of greatness; live on the wrong side of the road, fence, tracks; and dwell under rocks, slithering from shadow to shadow, for if the bright side of honesty even exposes them they’ll be revealed as cheats, thieves and fraudsters, using their public position to further personal gain.”
“Gosh.”
“The only way the Democrats have a chance to win the presidency is to out-do Trump: build a bigger wall; deport more illegal immigrants and Muslims; tell China to ‘take a slow boat to China’; get more people off of Food Stamps and Welfare; abolish sanctuary cities and prosecute mayors who violate federal law; aggressively go after polluters, poachers and profiteers.”
“But that’ll never happen. Wait; let’s break for a commercial, shall we?”
“Tonight’s the Night” (2:05)
“No, it won’t because they dug themselves a hole they won’t crawl out of, can’t crawl out of, and never will crawl out of. They spent 24-7 betting the farm on Russian Collusion, as if any of our enemies would want Trump as an adversary over Hillary; what a joke. Yes, there was collusion, but it was Hillary and Obama’s Uranium One deal which begs the question: how much money was deposited in one of Obama’s offshore bank accounts?”
“You don’t know the answer?”
“Millions, that good enough?”
“Plenty.”
“Now to Pelosi’s temper tantrum at the end of the State of the Union speech. She made a grandstand show of disrespect to everything that Trump said, as if the husband coming safely home to his family is not something to be celebrated; as if the Presidential Medal of Freedom is meaningless; and that the President of Venezuela is of no account. A display of one step away from out-and-out dementia when the next step is acting like a record caught in a groove; like when a cup becomes too difficult and a straw is the required utensil; and when the concept of good vs. evil is so clouded that she can’t really see what’s wrong with acting like a complete idiot in front of millions.”
“So what’s Pelosi’s future?”
“She’ll get reelected so the people in San Francisco can continue to have a dysfunctional city; she’ll continually accept mediocrity as acceptable; and, henceforth, her tearing-up of the State of the Union speech will replace her extended hand-clapping during the last State of the Union speech.”
“So she’s history?”
“She’s lost it and will never get it back. Let me ask you this, Roving: if you read a speech by JFK at one of the Democratic rallies, what are the chances of you being booed off the stage, besides 100%?”
“We get it. So Pelosi is, what, beyond the scope of acceptable behavior; redemption; has an outside chance to escape Dante’s Fourth Level (Greed)?”
“No.”
“Well, thank you, Madam Shylock, for any questions we may have had about the continuing meltdown by the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi. And so, on behalf of the crew, I’ll be wishing you all a goodnight: Goodnight.
“Good show, Madam Shylock; join us for burgers: my treat.”
“Venus” (2:24)
