PELOSI’S PENS WERE A CRASS ACT

Many pastimes, like bridge or golf, can be intensely competitive.  But when a  player high fives or gloats after winning, it’s  annoying to the losers. A winner  showing  pleasure at the other’s persons failure is seen as arrogant and offensive.  For awhile , it looked like Nancy Pelosi was a class act.  She appeared somber in a black dress, and declared she was praying for Trump. But her pious image changed when she signed the articles of impeachment.  She gloated and flaunted herself in a bright pink dress.  Then, she merrily  pulled out 30 gold pens with her name engraved on them. After signing impeachment papers, she  giddily handed out the pens as souvenirs.   Pelosi’s pens were a crass act.

Yes, I know.  Trump has made fun of her and called her names.  He’s been a boor.   She has every right to be happy she finally got him impeached.  But, just for the sake of decorum,  a  more dignified behavior would have been in order. Do  you pray for your enemies, or dance on their graves, Mother Nancy?  You can’t have it both ways.

The Speaker of the House  seems to forget that roughly half the citizens of the USA aren’t happy about the impeachment. But she made it clear that she doesn’t care about that “basket of deplorables” in this country who voted for Trump. Basically she was sticking out her tongue and jumping up and down like a rude little kid .    And she  trivialized the whole impeachment proceeding, as if it were just a party game.

“Do not gloat when you enemy falls, and do not let your heart rejoice when he stumbles,  or the Lord will see and disapprove, and turn His wrath away from him”

…..Proverb 24: 17, 18
