Our previous submission to the attention of the OROG community and the world in general concerned a bit of background on the Trump - line of continuum from Germany to America. We also dabbled a bit in foreign affairs of these moments as well my estimate of the incumbent President. My Consuegro (in Spanish - He, the father-in-law of my daughter and I, the father-in-law of his son) after reviewing my quick-clic summary about things Trump, suggested in his own inimitable way that I had not done anything about the Hon. Nancy Pelosi, 2nd pretender to the Presidency and titular known as Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States of America.
She is a troubled work in progress, regress, and distress it seems at all times. She recently has managed to undergo some kind of new facial intervention that has placed her eyebrows about eight inches above her eyes. That kind of work has to be admired. We include a less recent image of Madame Speaker so that folks might be able to recall what she used to look like when her eyebrows were only five inches above her pupils.
The Honourable Speaker is one of those classic Democrats who weeps before the crowds and cameras when the plight of the poor and the neglected people are overlooked. But, when showing her modest home in Oakland, she seems to have stone ear-drums, babbling without taking a breathe for several minutes (seemingly) about her 12,000 dollar ice-cream maintainer and her scores and scores of pints and quarts of 10 to 20 dollar per container, imported and mainly French (apparently) product. She seemed to take on the fervour of a very young child speaking over the visiting reporter's questions and turning her back frequently while the cameraman was trying to make "worthwhile" images of one of the most powerful people in the American government.
We have a "cleaned-up" version of Speaker Nancy's presentation of the inner workings of her refrigerator - freezer. This is because we do not wish to diminish the fact that her generosity in exposing the inner workings of her home and the secrets of her inner-most desires in terms of food choices.

It amazes us that Madam Speaker can make ends meet in terms of keeping her nice but understated home in Oakland, California. Her Speaker's salary is presently $223,500 and certain expenses. Of course, some of this salary, being far from adequate for a person of such importance is buffered a bit by her net worth totalling near $240,000,000 United States Dollars including Nancy's and her husband's net worth is something in excess of that, I am given to understand. The recent jiggle in the economic situation may have had some negative impact on
the Pelosi's estate, but I am relatively certain that they will not have to chew on leather in order to abate their hunger.
Mr. Pelosi, while surely a likeable fellow has established an interesting record of dabbling in almost everything from being a vintner to a Triple A baseball magnate, and a Triple A football magnate and just generally being around at the right time and at the right place to make a buck or two.
Please understand that my wife and I are in what might be "comfortable condition" economically (primarily due to to the Boss, not me). We do not sneer with jealousy nor resentment at those who have much. We do look down on those who have benefitted politically from their wealth, and then simultaneously have benefitted in terms of wealth due to their political positioning.
This is the somewhat convoluted manner of thinking by an Old Confederate type who believes in some variation of natural social assignment. As well, I am democratic enough to applaud people of lesser resources who legally and morally work and invest to the extent that they become "comfortable" and financially well endowed.
Frankly, while it is recognised that manoeuvring politically in order to gain the best results for one's party during Congressional combat, it seems that Madame Speaker is disposed to bring writs of impeachment against a President for the high crimes and misdemeanours such as (a) being President, and (b) having been elected President, and (c) having orange hair.
She is also disposed to keep the Lower House of Congress somewhere outside of Washington, D.C. when there are important matter to discuss, debate, and prosecute, especially when there is significant urgency attached to the need to decide and move said Acts and Legislative processes to their necessary conclusions. We Republicans to do those things, she would set up a howl that would raise the dead in the middle of the Sahara. However, when she does it, it is something like Joe Biden trying to explain himself. The Speaker makes so many hand, fingers, and arm thrashings it is if she is being attacked by a million invisible hornets. I have often wondered, if there were a face-to-face between Old Auntie Nancy and Old Uncle Joe which one would land the first and final accidental knock-out punch.
Finally, I present the evidence against this Speaker of the House concerning hubris. She was brought up in grand style, her daddy I believe was Mayor of Baltimore at one time, and she attended the finest Roman Catholic schools one could possibly hope for; truly excellent institutions. One would consider that, once obtaining an audience with the Bishop of Rome (as he is known to us of the Anglican order) she went in to the Papal precincts and had her tete-a-tete with the Holy Father, she apparently got her blows in, according to her accounting upon departure from the papal inner sanctum. When asked about her impressions about meeting up with one of the most intelligent students of the Roman Catholic religion and several score other denominations and other religious institutions around the world, she gave answers that were tepid and pointless. Towards the end of her "holding court" at the gates that give entrance to the Basilica of SaintPeter, she declared that she had advised the Pope that his views concerning abortion were not something or another and a woman's right to choose was things that sometimes can be other things but everybody's rights must be protected because of the things that can be one way here and upside down, maybe over there…sometimes.
We beg the indulgence of the readers because it must be understood that I tried my best to try to understand what in that name of Beelzebub the poor bat-crazy woman was trying to say but it was genuinely not understandable. She had just had a meeting with the Pontiff and apparently, according to her, told him how the cow ate the Latin Bible. She then addressed the group of pinko reporters and essentially advised them that she had advised the Pope that abortion is a woman's right, and religion has nothing to do with her choice. So there.
There I shall rest my case and my points. The contention is not resolvable. If a Roman Catholic wishes to approve of abortion on demand for women, then I cannot resolve the dichotomy of the issue. It is required that that Roman Catholic depart the church and find a new religious home. Or a bunch of people who want to call themselves "Roman Catholics Who Favour Abortions" must charge into the Vatican's precincts and go hand to hand against the Swiss Guards, grasp the Pope, and drag him to the Adriatic Sea and throw him to the sharks.
Then Mrs. Pelosi could be made Popess by Divine Acclamation and Planned Parenthood could establish a "sensible and accessible" women's needs clinic on the campus of Vatican City and have the various governments in the world pay taxes into the operation so that all abortions can be free. It is very improbable that any of the above solutions could be put into effect with any reasonable outcome.

After trying to re-assemble the Holy Roman Empire, it was decided best
for all to allow the Swiss Guards to put Humpty back together again.
I am certainly not the person indicated to re-establish Earthly Order.
We appreciate the attention of all, and we shall be back in the saddle
to-morrow, trying our best to stamp out Socialism, whatever stripe
it might be wearing at that time.
As usual, there will be more later.
Good Order, Gentlemen…stand at ease!
