Before we begin this episode of “Stupid Crap Nancy Pelosi Says,” consider the following: We’re talking about a condescending woman who not only trots out her faith at every politically expedient opportunity and defiantly declares herself to be a “devout Catholic” — for which she has been admonished by the San Francisco Archbishop to stop claiming — she also refers to late-term abortion as “sacred ground.”
Anyway, Pelosi went full-metal Pelosi during a segment on CNN’s “State of the Union,” as reported by Breitbart News, telling sock-puppet host Dana Bash that the leaked Roe v. Wade SCOTUS draft opinion demonstrates “the first time the court has taken back a freedom that was defined by precedent.”
Well, of course, that, but the fact is we, as a country — this is — let’s just put this in perspective. What we want women and families and everyone to focus on is the nature of this decision. This is — our country, the genius of our founders was to have a Constitution that enabled freedom to expand.
[That is correct — and you have zero idea what you are talking about.] And it did with marriage equality, it did with Roe v. Wade, in many ways, defining freedom more fully. [Including “freedom” for the unborn?]
This is the first time the court has taken back a freedom that was defined by precedent [Sorry, Nancy, “precedents” are not forever etched in granite] and respect for privacy. So, let’s stay focused on who we are as the country … I think that’s all good. It’s helpful to the women, and that’s important. [Um, how helpful is it to unborn children, disgustingly including those right up to birth?]
But it’s also important to know that this is not right. This is not the path of freedom for our country. So they’re putting freedom on the ballot. [Exactly — unfortunately, you are incapable of understanding what you just said.] And our democracy has been on the ballot because of what they have — are doing to elections. [For the love of God and unborn children across the country, please sit down and shut up.]
Wait — huh?
"We played a long game. We won Roe v. Wade a long time ago."

OK, stop the crazy train for a minute.
Yes, “the genius of our founders” not only established in the U.S. Constitution — a document that did “enable freedom to expand,” but the genius of our Founders also established three equal branches of government, critically including an independent judiciary, in part to protect us from overzealous federal lawmakers, by ensuring that certain decisions and responsibilities properly rest with state and municipal governments representing the democratic views of the citizens of our respective states.
You know, that Federal Republic thing? To protect us from an all-powerful “national” government? Anyway, let’s return to the insanity at hand, as Pelosi continued to dig even deeper, as transcribed by Breitbart:
This is a place where freedom and the kitchen table issues of America’s families come together. What are the decisions that a family makes? [If SCOTUS — and our nation — are forever locked into “precedent,” what decisions will American families ultimately be “allowed” to make?]
What about contraception for young people? It’s just beyond a particular situation. It’s massive, in terms of contraception, in vitro fertilization, again, a woman’s right to decide. [Exactly. Unfortunately, you are incapable of understanding the moral difference between contraception and in vitro fertilization, and on-demand murder of unborn children — right up until birth.]
And it’s OK — we want to mitigate for [sic] the damage, but we have to get rid of the damage. [Clueless — and moraless.]
“The ball is this court,” Pelosi blathered, “which is dangerous to the freedoms of our country.”
How ironic. Particularly given the last 16 months of Biden and total Democrat rule.
Incidentally, during a Sunday appearance on a different network, Pelosi went completely off the rails while attempting to explain the cause of inflation, as RedState reported — another “must-see” Pelosi moment.
