This is Nancy Pelosi, mom, grandma, Armani model, and once the most powerful woman in the nation. And here she is, flappin’ her gums about blah blah blah middle class blah blah blah who cares? Well, at some point during this period of time, when she is distinctly not making anyone a sandwich, Texas idiot and Ponzi Scheme lover Pete Sessions apparently laughs at her, because “gentleman.” And does Nancy Pelosi apologize as she should have, for being so ridiculous and also a member of Congress, in fact the leader of one of the two parties? She does not. She gets “snippy” with him.
Here is Glenn Beck’s The Blaze, explaining how Nancy Pelosi got “snippy” with Sessions, in the aptly titled “Nancy Pelosi Gets Snippy With GOP Rep During House Floor Speech.”
The moment occurred after Rep. Pelosi claimed that Congress would “abandon efforts to extend the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy,” as Charlie Spiering puts it.
“Pelosi framed the debate in terms of a ‘middle income tax cut’ asserting that two-thirds of the House would vote in favor of the idea,” he adds.
That’s when someone in the House audibly chuckled.
“Do I detect your smirk to mean that you don’t think Republicans will vote for middle income tax cuts Mr. Sessions?” an irritated Pelosi snapped.
Wouldn’t it be nice if Nancy Pelosi actually had “snapped” at him, instead of just glaring for a moment and then continuing on in her well-modulated, unshrill voice? Wouldn’t it be great if some women members occasionally got up and hollered and shrieked and bitched and cried and went straight PMS crack mom I will pull this car over so help me God?
Yes it would. Shut the fuck up, The Blaze.

It would have probably been a more effective tactic for her to just walk over there and kick him square in the nuts. Bet that would have gone viral on the netz.
And after he stopped crying like a little girl, he'd try to convince everyone it never happened.
Sessions doesn't have these nuts that you speak of. But, that would be funny.
Yeah, I should have put "vagina" instead of "nuts."
Which btw, fucking hurts when hit. Maybe not as bad as nuts, but still.
Any girl that rode a "boys bike" knows that.
A 2×4 between the eyes, just like with a mule.
With votes, of course.
Or an airgun with votes! What?
don't forget, its impossible for Republicans to be undisciplined and disrespectful, while that's all the Democrats ever are.
The Dems really are the adults in the room; the 'cons are just crazy two-year old sociopaths.
IOKIYAR, because.
Isn't it about time the GOP introduced legislation forbidding women from talking back? Also, black guys. The Pelosi-Obama Bill, better known as Menopause-Uppity to the Republicans.
She wouldn't have gotten away with this shit in the Michigan legislature.
Fer shizzle…
And as the Michigan legislature is best used as a reverse barometer for determining What Is A Good Idea, that means this was fairly awesome.
Nancy makes the worst sammiches ever.
Of course the Repubtards are the "grown-ups" and shit. Fuck them with a Howitzer full of "votes."
The Blaze: if they printed it, I'd burn it.
2 copies.
poop on one.
wipe with the other.
It wasn't a smirk. It was just Sessions sitting down on his balls again. (Which hurts, btw.)
You'd like to think that…but really the chuckle didn't specifically come from Sessions but instead it came from whichever Kochtopus member who shoves his hand up Sessions butt to make him speak who chuckled because come on….like the Koch brothers would ever want ANYONE but themselves to receive a tax cut.
A real woman wouldn't be all snippy and back-talking, she'd just with-hold sex like a lady.
Island of Lesbos LIBEL!
Lysistrata libel!
Asshole. She should have literally gotten snippy with him. Bitch shoulda cut a bitch.
I'd like to snip off Glen Beck's…..tongue.
Didn't there used to be a tradition that members don't address each other by name, but rather as "the gentleman from Texas"? And didn't there also used to be a tradition that all remarks were addressed to the speaker, rather than directly to another member? And weren't these traditions borrowed from the Mother of Parliaments, over their in Good Britain? And can't you read about this in Trollope's lesser novel The Way We Live Now, in which a railroad-building plutocrat gets elected and tramples on all these great traditions?
Maybe they've let all that go, along with the idea of actual "debate," in the sense of listening to each others' arguments. Oh well…you gotta fill those hours on CSPAN somehow.
Supposedly an actual exchange from the Mother of Parliaments:
"The right honourable gentleman has the manners of a pig."
-"Boo! Retract!"
"I retract that last. The right honourable gentleman *hasn't* the manners of a pig."
YOU LIE!
Perfect.
I challenge you to a duel. Where are my damn gloves?
I would like for it to get a lot snippier, like Prime Minister's Questions.
Hear hear!
NEEDS MOAR FLAMING EYED NANCY GIF.
Yes! I hereby submit that all Nancy stories get the flaming eye gif! It makes my day every time i see it.
Comity is for pussies.
I''ll say. I once saw a pussy that had comity all over it. "Now that's comity," I said.
Kitty Comity?
What would have been cool is if she'd up and beat him senseless with a chair.
Both Geraldo and The Sheik know a thing or two about chairs.
as does Clint
and Anderson Cooper.
It would have been funnier though if she had asked him if he had anything he would like to share with the rest of the House and stared at him until he explained himself or apologized.
And "Are you chewing gum, Mr Sessions?"
"hope you brought enough for everyone!"
"Wow. She's strict."
You underestimate Republicans' ability to bloviate endlessly about nothing, and overestimate their sense of shame. But as Nancy Pelosi slash fiction, it kind of works.
Who is Nancy being slashed with, Michele Bachmann?
All while brandishing her knuckle-slapping ruler.
Appalling and disgraceful…yeah that pretty much covers Pete Sessions. Besides, he was smirking because the Republicans have no respect for women. I think they've made that abundantly clear.
Sorry, what now? Wasn't listening . Clicked the Sports Illustrated link on Friday's Hot Chicks instead.
Next time she needs to kick him square in the stimulus package.
I can't wait for Fight Night at Capital Hill. That's your grab yer popcorn moment.
No doubt Beck's audience at "The Blaze" found this to be a very tasty morsel, a delectable little hate-snack if you will. No matter how fat they get they can always enjoy another bite of this sort of dish.
Can't wait til they finally have that one thin mint.
Haw haw responsible government.
Haw haw middle class.
Haw haw ladies talking.
Fuck these guys, forever, with votes, please.
I think Beck should apologize, send her a pajamagram and a $5.00 gift certificate to be utilized on whatever Nancy's little old heart desires from The Blaze marketplace. She just might find something she likes on the Emergency Preparedness page. Like maybe the Family Survival Emergency Seed Bank – For a Flourishing 1.5 Acre Garden for $79.99.
I hope you just made that up about the Seed Bank, and that you did not actually go and look at that site.
Mea culpa. Mea culpa. I looked at the site. I also found a really good deal on a Stations of the Cross set. $249.99. Everybody should get one. Under penalty of death.
You forgot jeans. And the rocket that comes with them: http://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/VideoArchive…
One word: "Fuck."
Well now my pearls need restringing from all the clutching that video forced me to do.
It's times like this that I start to see the upside to Conceal and Carry.
Then they'd be stealing from Glenn Beck.
So true. Has Beck been doing as much crying on-air lately? It is a rhetorical question; in truth I'd be happier knowing less about Beck.
“Do I detect your smirk to mean that you don’t think Republicans will vote for middle income tax cuts Mr. Sessions?”
"I don't expect you to 'detect,' Ms Pelosi. I expect you to die!!!"
"Do not shoot her it will just make her angry!"
If Nancy really got "snippy" with Sessions he'd fit into tighter jeans.
It bears repeating that Jay-yuff Sayshuns is the dumbest member of Congress by a long shot.
And man oh man, is that ever a low bar.
I'm not sure that's true (Louie Gohmert gets my vote) but the dipshit in question was Pete Sessions.
Right now I would go with Gohmert as dumbest, but to be fair that is only based on what he says and does.
What has this nation come to if we are going to start judging politicians on what they say and do?
There's only one thing Democrats in the House should be saying: "Where's your fucking proposals, assholes?"….over and over again….freeing up the middle class tax thing, in my mind, is just bad business – you know they have to do this, anyway, or not bother coming back in January….But Nancy does wear a big pair – I'm remembering when she handed the giant gavel to Boehner, because his was so little….
OT but it looks like Assad is going to have to open up an ophthalmology practice in Russia pretty soon, the NYT reports.
Wish Rand Paul would self-deport and join his practice.
Eye see what you did there.
i'm just waiting ti find out if the israelis poisoned arafat.
I bet the Russians did it; or at least, supplied the means. If the Israelis wanted him dead, wouldn't they have just shot him? Nothing for them in making it look like a natural event, right?
Oh and Boner, this is called "governing". Please take note. (I fucking love me some Nancy Pelosi).
When you pass a nutter with a FIRE PELOSI bumpersticker, what they mean is build a fire beneath her and burn her because she's a WITCH…
She's fierce, she's Italian, she will stone cold choke a bitch. What's not to love?
Snip, Snap and Smirk was a dreamy children's book series I enjoyed growing up. Oh, wait…
Don't forget FLicka Ricka and Dicka!!!
We had those read to us too although I recall the sisters less vividly — but the above image I linked? Yeah, the brothers-three seemed to have extra rich-sensory stories and images to their tales.
I can still taste the bonbons and cookies-grown-on trees (from my imagination) as we read about their adventures with that princess and the horse~
Crybabies. Wonkette is always getting SNIPY with me, and you don't hear me complaining.
Jeff was smirking because he just remembered he's got a klan meeting tonight.
(circa 2009) http://image.blingee.com/images17/content/output/…
For fuck's sake, just give Nancy back her hammer and stop whining (and gerrymandering).
House floor pro I know you know
I go psycho when the teabags hit
Just can't sit
Gotta get snippy wit it
Nancy should have hauled little Pete over her knee & given him the spanking he deserves. God knows she could have beat his ass clean off with one finely crafted Italian leather pump.
I thought Glen Beck was dead.
not technically.
No, what I said was "HE SLEEPS WITH THE FISHES".
I forget, is "snippy" the code for total bitch? Or is it the code for "on the rag"?
Yes.
AOT,K
Demrats should be "rude" and call the GOPers on their shit.
Nancy is awesome, but she needs to duct-tape that hand of hers to her hip.
I hope I have the patience to make it to 2014 when we can boot these crazy motherfuckers out. They're wrecking the place.
Make that 2020, because
gerrymanderingredistricting.Time to get snippy (and medieval) on his ass with a pair of hedge clippers.
71 comments and no one has commented about how little "Peter" Sessions is? I have to be the one to go there? Fine… [insert tiny genitalia joke here]
We're self-conscious?
"wouldn't take too much snippin' to set that boy right"?
Well Pete Sessions is head of the National Republican Congressional Committee, which means he just presided over a loss of seats in the House, he just got divorced last year, and he's about as slimy as a frightened lamprey — so I'd say it's the final snicker of a soon-to-be-extinct corrupt teabagger. It makes it much easier to excuse such behavior when it's just the nervous laughter of the doomed.
Greg Walden, (R-OR) is the elected replacement to Sessions to take over on Jan. 3,
Hey this is a fun game!
Senator John McCain got snippy with Barack Obama over Susan Rice
Governor Rick Perry got snippy with patriotic Americans by saying Texas may secede
Representative Michele Bachmann got snippy with sane people by saying the State Department was being run by the Muslim Brotherhood.
This is starting to sound like an Elmore Leonard screenplay. Get Snippy, starring Snippy the Wonder Puggle.
I bet if you opened Pete Sessions' closet door you'd find a hood with eyeholes.
And more closets?
I perused the comments in blaze world. Those people are not nice. We may have a mean thing or two to say, but they take themselves so seriously:
I kinda like the last one, except I'd replace "Pelosi" with "Limbaugh".
Some of us can't help looking like some spastic old bag on drugs who don't make a lick of sense.
I don't think "defraud" means what they think it does. Or maybe they do know exactly what it means.
In either case, they are using it properly.
The Blaze… isn't that the nutty Glen Beck site all about selling gold for Agenda 22 or whatever the fuck they're paranoid about?
I like my Wonkette in the morning. It angries up the blood!
Looks like the war on caterpillars is going full blast…
Oh, they think THAT's "snippy," do they? I'd show 'em "snippy." Now where are my pinking shears?
wingtards can say ' you lie' to POTUS, but they daren't do more than smirk at queen nancy.
When Nancy Pelosi was the Speaker, Congress' approval rating was in the 40s; now that the 'cons have been in charge of the House for a while, it's near single digits.
Let's reinstate Nancy Pelosi as Speaker in 2014.
Wish Nancy had down a towel "snap" to ol Petey's nut sack.
It's a natural reflex with these parasites – they can't stand anyone who actually works for their taxpayer-sponsored paycheck.
Soon as she stops doing anything meaningful, she'll be "One Of The Guys."
If someone at the Blaze thinks that was being snippy, I'll bet Nancy has a can of whoop ass she'd really like to show Jayuff how it's opened.
Oh that Bawl'imore gal, she got some class hon.
"What a freakin idiot Polosi is! She looks like some spastic ol bag on drugs and don’t make a lick of sense."
Who among us hasn't had the sense to lick an old bag of drugs when times were tough?
What's she complaining about? It's not like he shouted "You lie!" in the middle of her speech.
The lowlifes on the Blaze have the temerity to use ids like "Ghandi was a Republican". Oh dear…
For me, "snippy" is taking finely honed scissors, delicately opening the scrotum, extracting the testicles and precisely stuffing them into the heckler's mouth.
Words cannot describe how much I adore Nancy Pelosi.
Is that what the kids are calling it these days?
