Nancy Pelosi: Warrior Goddess of the U.S. Constitution
by Cindy Sheehan
Political "Enemies?" George and Nancy.
Even before my son Casey was killed in the U.S.’s occupation of Iraq in 2004, I could clearly see that the entire U.S. War on (of) Terror was based on lies and marketed to the American people using admittedly savvy techniques.
However, as egregious as attacking Afghanistan after the attacks on 9/11/01 was, the approaching disaster in Iraq loomed even more horrendously on the horizon. I mean Hillary Clinton and Condi Rice were warning of “mushroom clouds” and the (dis)honorable Colin Powell went to the UN to make the case for mobile WMD labs in Iraq. Edward Bernays (nephew of Freud and "Father" of modern propaganda and advertising) would have been very proud of the White House Iraq Group that devised all of these false, yet, if true, very compelling reasons to take out Saddam Hussein.
After Casey was killed and after we protested Bush at Camp Casey in Crawford, Tx in 2005, I increasingly came to realize that the Democrats were as big of frauds as were Bush/Cheney. Then House majority leader Nancy Pelosi (D-SF) took both of my hands in hers on a couch in her Capitol Hill office (which resembled what I would think of as the parlor of a brothel) looked me straight in my baby blues and said, “Cindy, if you help us (the Dems) take back the House in 2006, I promise you, we’ll help you end the war.” Well, part of that thing happened, we did help the Democrats “take back” the House in 2006, but they did not help us end any wars. Besides not helping us end any wars, Pelosi campaigned in 2006 on an “impeachment is off the table” platform that addressed the nascent “Impeach Bush and Cheney” movement that was percolating back then.
Me Sporting Impeach Bush and Cheney in 2007
In 2007, after Nancy and her cadre of nitwits in Congress didn’t
help us end any wars, but, in fact, they gave George Bush any amount of money to continue the wars that he asked for, the Impeach Bush/Cheney movement started to apply more pressure to Nancy and (now deceased) Congressman John Conyers (D-MI) who took over as chair of the House Judiciary Committee.
In fact, I visited Conyers many times in 2007 in his office in DC and at one such meeting, he wrote a list of ten obstacles to impeachment (he wrote it with his left hand to disguise the handwriting, we think), and #10 was “Pelosi.”
In July of 2007 at what would turn out to be the final of our “impeachment meetings,” 50 people, including me, were arrested in Conyers’ office demanding that as the chair of the important committee, he proceed with an impeachment investigation. It was so incongruous to many of us that when he was merely the “ranking member” of that committee in 2006, his staff researched and wrote a detailed and heavily documented blueprint for impeachment literally titled: “The Constitution in Crisis: The High Crimes of the Bush Administration and a Blueprint for Impeachment .” Our question was then and remained to the day he died, “What changed from 2006 when you were merely the ranking member to 2007 when you were the chair? Did all those crimes disappear?”

arrested, I announced that I would run for Congress ( I came in 2nd with over 16% of the vote--unprecedented up to that point) against Nancy in 2008 for refusing to fulfill her duty to investigate and potentially impeach Bush and Cheney for (among other things) the lies and push for a war that has to this date killed, wounded, or displaced millions. As with the “leftover” toxins the people of Vietnam are still suffering from, the people, especially the children of Iraq are suffering from blood and hard tumor cancers, or being born horribly deformed from depleted uranium and other poisons left by the U.S. Military. U.S. imperialist war is a “gift” that keeps giving and no U.S. president has ever been held accountable for this sad truth.
So, Nancy, holding up her spear of pearl-clutching righteousness has now decided, in the twilight years of her political perfidy, to identify as The Warrior Goddess of the U.S. Constitution.
This individual who was the obstacle to impeaching a man who was clearly a mass-murderer, liar, and massive bonehead (not actually an impeachable offense, but worth noting) is now quoting the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution and warning of a general “collapse of civilization” if Trump is not impeached and removed. Even though I am not as keen on the tool of impeachment as I once was—-I prefer the French method: shut everything down in worker solidarity, I have wondered why Nancy refused to impeach one clearly criminal president but is going ahead with this one?
Not that I am a Trump supporter and not that I care if he is impeached, or not, (look in the wings to see what awaits—always some Enemy #1 of the people), but something hinky this way comes.
First of all, it’s also worth noting that George W. Bush comes from a long-line of deep state thugs. His grandfather Prescott Bush notably supported Hitler and a military coup against FDR and W's father (HW) was deep into the CIA and has been alleged to have been involved in the conspiracy to assassinate JFK, or at the very least the cover-up of that murder. On the other hand, Trump has been very critical of the CIA and other spooky organizations. Perhaps Pelosi has the backing of the deep state, or perhaps there is no question about it, she does.
Secondly, this impeachment dovetails perfectly with the unproven propaganda against Russia and Putin. Recently, Nancy shamelessly stated that we needed to “understand” that all “roads lead to Putin.” For Pete’s sake, when will this b.s. end? So, if “all roads lead to Putin,” then Hillary Clinton really did win in 2016 and to save civilization we need to “understand” this, even though, the fates only know where we’d be if the belligerent warmonger and destroyer of actual civilizations had won?
Thirdly, any crime that was charged against Bush/Cheney could be charged against any president before, or after them: Democrat or Republican. As a nation, the U.S. is ALWAYS at war somewhere, murdering somebody and Nancy and her Nitwits know that just as well, if not better, than we do. If any president is ever impeached and removed from office for war crimes or lying to get the nation into war, then the entire house of cards would collapse, for sure. Not that that would be a bad thing, for us and the rest of Earth, but for Nancy, Obama, Bush, Clinton, AND Trump, etc, it would be a total catastrophe. Nancy Pelosi, like all those before her, is nothing if not an able servant of Empire.

Finally, another question arises—-this Ukrainian angle exposes the Obama administration and Joe Biden in particular far more than it does Trump: if it was wrong for Trump to ask the president of the U.S. supported neo-Nazi Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden and his son Hunter for using the office of the VP to obtain a very lucrative job for Hunter with a Ukrainian energy company, Burisma Holdings, then why is Joe Biden still wreaking havoc on the campaign trail? I have always said Trump shouldn’t be allowed to tweet on his own, and Biden should have a strict script to which he much adhere with no chance of adlib potential. Biden recently also verbally attacked an elderly man as a “liar” and “fat,” when the man asked about Biden’s questionable activities involving Hunter in Ukraine! What the hell, Democrats? You're allowing Biden to do the nearly impossible task of making Trump look almost sane.
While many were watching the impeachment folderol cranking on and off the TV, the Democrat majority House reauthorized the USA PATRIOT ACT this past November. The antics of the ruling-class in WashedUp, DeCeit make me wish they would just take up poisoning each other like in ancient Rome, or using Steel-cage Death Matches on the Ellipse to solve their petty differences and just leave us alone. I watch very little of the circus, but when I do see it, both sides make me sick with their political pandering masquerading as a deep respect and love for the Constitution and elusive “rule of law.”
Trump should be impeached for those Jazz Hands, amiright?
Nancy Pelosi served a paltry two-terms as Speaker of the House her first merry-go-round and lost her seat when the Republicans “took back” the house in the mid-terms of 2010 under an incomprehensibly popular Democrat President. Did her lack of political courage cost her the House that time? Will her born-again zeal for the “rule of law,” cost her this time? I feel like this is going to backfire on her and “civilization” might not be lost, but she may be forced to go back to her Brothel Parlor and dream of the glory days when she held the gavel for such a blink of time.
