#2 They have no idea how much this has hurt this Nation.

Also, you are going to hell, Pelosi. Are you enjoying your smite?

You will be the most un-intelligable person to ever serve as speaker.

Your whole party is cursed now, and you led them there.

You make poor decisions and quote the Bible cynically so you know someone may notice you you damn fraud.

Curse the entire democrat party. I want them destroyed completely.

FIdiots should not be in charge of any leaver of power ever. They are all a corrupt and abominable influence on Civilization.

#6 In a dramatic surreal-comic procession across the U.S. Capitol, House Democrats carried their shit-smeared dildo-shaped punji sticks formal articles of impeachment against Genghis Mussolini, whom they launched their Peach-Mint Shitshow against the second he was inaugurated...

#7 If cocaine Mitch doesn't use this opportunity to smash the regressives over the head, he is on the other side.

So far he has been pretty brutal to drunkin Nan... but we will see.

#8 I was really disappointed by the procession. Where was the mace, horse drawn carriage, the Queen?

#10 "Today we will make history,″ Pelosi said as she signed the documents, using multiple pens to hand out and mark the moment.

Yes, Nancy. Historians will long wonder how anyone as deranged, befuddled and corrupt as you attained such a high position in our government.

#13 even as fresh details emerged about his efforts in Ukraine.

What 'fresh details'? Someone else who disagrees?

Or the secret 'real' transcript, hidden in the super-secret vault, where no one can leak it to the press. Which Mrs. Bobby seems to believe.

#16  Will Pelosi be held accountable for her part in this Dem-created gigantic clusterf&%# ?

No. She's the Congresscritter-for-life from the ultra-safe San Francisco congressional district. I have nothing but contempt for that city and the voters who live there. The best that we can hope is that, after the 2020 election, she will be demoted to House Minority Leader. Although, I suppose it is not inconceivable that her caucus will choose another leader, maybe AOC.

#17 The Procession of the Nobles is just another part of Le Grand Shitshow. Remember the three SS requirements:
1. Complete, utter Absurdity/Futility - check
2. Gross Incompetence - check
3. Ostentatious Virtue Signaling - check

#19 /\ #4. We are NOT a Parliamentary Democracy so passing a Vote of 'No Confidence' by the Opposition Party, even if it has a majority in the House of Representatives, disguised as an (quote) Impeachment (un-quote) is against our Constitution.

#20 #11 She likes processions, remember Obamacare signing?

Ah yes, the one where Dennis Miller does a short routine on the ObamaScare signing, "Batshit crazy."

#21 "Today we will make historylive in Infamy,″ Pelosi said as she signed the documents, using multiple pens to hand out and mark the moment in a somber, demented, and religious manner.
