Editor,

In response to Bernard Ames’ recent letter (“Pelosi’s hypocrisy”), this from Max Von Essen … “Alert me when Speaker Pelosi sexually assaults someone, mocks the disabled, tears a child from their parents, pays off a porn star, insults a gold star family, calls Nazis fine people, denies science, steals from a charity or starts a fake university. Until then, take a seat.”

Nancy Pelosi is a faux Catholic who supports the killing of unborn children. So why don't you take a knee.

See you at St Greg's for Mass CC

I am part of Our Lady of Angels parish now, sorry I will not be seeing you at St. Greg's. At least you said something civil to me this time.

OLA it is then, nice parish. I favor St Bart's.

Perfect, Mike.

Mike, as we know you have only scratched the surface.

Uh-oh folks, we have another triggered snowflake, Mikey Mouse Aydelott. Alert me when Pelosi the Putz actually does anything useful. Maybe you can find another hoax for her to chase after. Until then, I’d recommend patriots get their mops to sop up the tears of the people who hate Trump more than they love America.

Hey, Mike

Thanks for the quote from Max Von Essen. He is an actor of great accomplishment, but I'm not sure how that translates into speaking about the current political scene with any authority.

Criticize Donald Trump? Laud him? Criticize Nancy Pelosi? Laud her?

I would offer a quote from Albert Jay Nock in response to those questions. He said, "If every jobholder in Washington were driven into the Potomac tonight, their places would be taken tomorrow by others precisely like them.”

Maybe that sentiment is what's behind calling out Nancy Pelosi. Maybe not.

Agreed Mike, Unfortunately, in today's political climate hypocrisy is the coin of the realm. Aside from his singular need to focus on himself, the great tragedy of Trump is his total lack of credibility which weakens our government on every level.
