HEAD-TURNS FOR THE AGES

Someone Please Help Your Wonkette Create Special ‘Nancy Pelosi Art’

by Jim Newell  10:58 am September 10, 2009

Does anyone here know how to use computers? We want to create an animated .gif of Nancy Pelosi’s reaction to shouty Joe Wilson last night, but how the dickens does one do THAT? So if one of you lovely humans would like to help your Wonkette produce a very very important stock photo for years to come, please make a (nicely cropped) animated .gif of Nancy Pelosi’s MONSTROUS HEAD from :15 to :17 in this video. We’ll give you five minutes of make-out time with Intern Riley in the closet of your choice. [YouTube]

Never mind Pelosi, watch Biden. He’s not angry with Congress, just terribly, terribly disappointed.

AnnieGetYourFun September 10, 2009 at 11:02 am

I would rather Photoshop an image of Joe Wilson eating a bag of dicks – can I do that instead?

norbizness September 10, 2009 at 11:03 am

Seven Minutes of Heaven with Spiccoli? This is almost enough to get me to want to learn what a so-called “animated .gif” is!

Yes You Can Own A Piece of History September 10, 2009 at 11:03 am

I love that moment. The looks on Barry, Nancy, and Joe’s faces are gold.

octupletsmom September 10, 2009 at 11:06 am

Oh, such a sad that I have had severe Art Anxiety since junior high, because Intern Riley is cuter than puppies!

badmuthagoose September 10, 2009 at 11:06 am

Nancy’s all muttering to Joe “THAT motherfucker. THAT. MOTHER. FUCKER. Text Rahm. Right now.”

Joe is all “text?”

Midwest_Product September 10, 2009 at 11:07 am

I think somebody might’ve forgotten to tell Ms. Pelosi that she would be on camera for the entirety of the speech. It looked like she was chewing cud for most of the address; as it went on I was concerned that she might actually pick her nose.

badmuthagoose September 10, 2009 at 11:08 am

By the way, and not for nothing, but I need to get this snark out very badly: in the pic of Douchebag Wilson yelling EWWWWWEEE LAAAAHHH! his head is very orange and his hands are paler than his head.

If there’s one thing I can’t stand more than asshole douchebags, it’s vain asshole douchebags who get spray tans.

vitira September 10, 2009 at 11:08 am

[re=407644]badmuthagoose[/re]: And Rahm will set up a special sort of death panel for “Joe Wilson” who is not even an old … yet.

Naked Bunny with a Whip September 10, 2009 at 11:09 am

Five minutes with Riley?! Wow! Now I wish I weren’t blind, deaf, and dumb. Very, very dumb.

teebob2000 September 10, 2009 at 11:10 am

Any way you can provide us with a still shot? I’m not aware of all internet traditions.

badmuthagoose September 10, 2009 at 11:10 am

[re=407650]vitira[/re]: I am writing to the White House now, volunteering to be on that panel of compassion and love.

Joshua Norton September 10, 2009 at 11:11 am

Is airfare from California included? I mean Riley may be cute and all, but I usually don’t pay to travel from coast to coast just for a make-out session.

thejesusandmarycheney September 10, 2009 at 11:12 am

He just wanted to make sure President Obama read the EULA before clicking “Accept”.

Joshua Norton September 10, 2009 at 11:13 am

Here’s a helpful hint:

All’s you have to do is capture the individual frames and then load them into an automated .gif maker. There’s free ones all over the internets.

Slow Fish September 10, 2009 at 11:14 am

I believe that is the Suburban Mom Head-Turn Of Death, as in “Don’t make me stop this car and come back there.” If only we could weaponize it, we could save billions on our defense budget.

Tundra Grifter September 10, 2009 at 11:14 am

I really like Joe Biden’s head shake after the “You Lie!” yell. I’ve often used that myself with retail clerks of various types. Only mine is a little slower on the left-to-right…

finallyhappy September 10, 2009 at 11:15 am

Can I get a T-shirt instead? Riley is younger than my kids.

octupletsmom September 10, 2009 at 11:15 am

Nancy: Call Dad’s Mafia friends. Now!

TGY September 10, 2009 at 11:16 am

Sorry. Juli as an alternative?

nbawriter September 10, 2009 at 11:16 am

That can’t be good for Riley’s asthma.

Josh Fruhlinger September 10, 2009 at 11:16 am

I like the way Joe looks down in that more-in-sorrow-than-in-anger way. “Gosh, I was hoping I wasn’t going to have to call out Dick Cheney’s special VP-controlled assassination squad, but…”

hunter.blatherer September 10, 2009 at 11:19 am

Enough with these town halls filled with uneducated, unwashed bigots holding nonsequitorial placards. They don’t represent the grace and dignity that is the American people.
Oh, wait, this wasn’t a town hall, these were actual elected representatives? OK, never mind then.

gurukalehuru September 10, 2009 at 11:20 am

[re=407639]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Please.

twowheeljunkie September 10, 2009 at 11:22 am

What’s the over/under on how many days till Joe Wilson turns up with a broken arm?

Gallowglass September 10, 2009 at 11:23 am

[re=407639]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Indeed. Make it a bag of scabrous dicks.

Monsieur Grumpe September 10, 2009 at 11:26 am

Has Riley got a sister?

stopsmiling September 10, 2009 at 11:26 am

because i love you.

Oh, you mean like this douchebag who wore a “NO BILL” sign around his neck during Barry’s speech? Yea, I thought so.

jagorev September 10, 2009 at 11:29 am

slithytoves September 10, 2009 at 11:39 am

[re=407693]jagorev[/re]: Very nice!

Slow Fish September 10, 2009 at 11:39 am

The more I think about it, the more I believe Wilson was bribed by the Democrats, or at least offered sex with an Argentinian energy lobbyist (or whatever the family values politicians are shtupping this week), to act like an idiot. The speech wasn’t intended for the wingnuts, because they’re, well, nuts. It was intended to convey to the sceptical middle that the Democrats are being reasonable and open-minded but determined, but if the Republicans are going to be hysterical and blindly oppositional, the Democrats are just going to have to be bipartisan without them. Wilson played right into that.

skutre September 10, 2009 at 11:40 am

Can anyo0ne recommend an easy to use gif animator for PC ?

I’ve got Adobe Image Ready but it totally sucks I hate that thing. Oh yeah and free. also.

Thanks

Here’s another one, if you’re still short:

Has anybody ever noticed that when Nancy Pelosi smiles, she’s a pretty good looking old broad, for a politician.
When she relaxes her face, she looks like the wicked witch of the West that the crazies love to vilify.
Like everything else in life, this was done on Seinfeld.

I might be able to do it, but I’m holding out for Newell. Rowrr.

I’ve often said that when angry she looks like the mean tree from “The Wizard of Oz”.

My first .gif ever.

[re=407690]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: No shit. The sign should’ve said, “Will work for earmarks.”

jodyleek September 10, 2009 at 11:52 am

[re=407730]btwbfdimho[/re]: Perfect! I like Barry’s finger flying through the frame as well.

More popcorn, please.

Wish I could help but I have trouble with Blingees even. I did find an online animated gif creator:

Joshua Norton September 10, 2009 at 12:04 pm

I think it should have Pelosi’s eyes bugging out going “Oooga, ooooga” at the end.

widget09 September 10, 2009 at 12:09 pm

Just go over to wingnut site called TMP Mudkraker, they have the worst picture of Nancy imaginable. What up with the perl necklace????? She got a perl necklace!

thejesusandmarycheney September 10, 2009 at 12:11 pm

[re=407762]widget09[/re]: i heard u like mudkrakers

Serolf Divad September 10, 2009 at 12:18 pm

[re=407638]Gallowglass[/re]:

100% agree. That was awesome!

american mutt September 10, 2009 at 12:23 pm

TheRoot.com puts it well (it’s an uppity black blog. my faves.)

“Particularly outdone is Speaker of the House Pelosi, who looks like one of her grandkids just did their business on the living room rug.”

AnnieGetYourFun September 10, 2009 at 12:25 pm

[re=407644]badmuthagoose[/re]: I think that that was an excellent summary of the moment.

MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend September 10, 2009 at 12:31 pm

10 minutes with Newell or NO DICE!

Tommmcatt September 10, 2009 at 12:41 pm

[re=407811]MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend[/re]:

EXACTLY. Plus, where are the nudie pics? You know he has them.

RobFromChicago September 10, 2009 at 1:01 pm

Here’s one icon-sized, created from the video directly. Had to dig up an old computer that still has imageready on it. :)

McDuff September 10, 2009 at 1:08 pm

[re=407713]Slow Fish[/re]: More likely Wilson was willing to take one for the Repub team in exchange for campaign cash. The plan worked since it appears that the media is talking about Wilson 24/7 and not about what Hopey actually said.

badmuthagoose September 10, 2009 at 1:10 pm

[re=407850]RobFromChicago[/re]: Oh that’s all kinds of awesome. She DOES look like one of her grandchildren just did their business on the living room rug.

dementor September 10, 2009 at 1:36 pm

[re=407727]greywindz[/re]: Rowr. What did Nancy do to deserve that, and where are Rahm’s 9.5 digits?

Also, could the gif makers please add the Dramatic Chipmunk music to Pelosi’s head swivel?

slithytoves September 10, 2009 at 1:43 pm

[re=407850]RobFromChicago[/re]: I have to say – that is REALLY good. Spit-take on keyboard good.

Flanders September 10, 2009 at 5:22 pm

[re=407663]Slow Fish[/re]: +1

widget09 September 11, 2009 at 9:10 am

[re=407773]thejesusandmarycheney[/re]: Love ‘em!
