Does Botox Cause Brain Damage?

Case in point: Nancy Pelosi.

Nancy and her band of Merry Pranksters took control of the House of Representatives two years ago, with the promise of lowering the outrageously priced $2.30/gal gasoline!
July 17 interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer:

BLITZER: So let me get — will you allow this issue, offshore oil drilling, to come up for a vote on the floor of the House?
PELOSI: We’re going to exhaust our other remedies in terms of increasing supply in America by…
BLITZER: So the answer is no?
PELOSI: I have no plans to do so.

What exactly does “exhaust other remedies in terms of increasing supply in America” mean? How does one increase the supply without drilling for more? Conservation does not increase the supply, it merely marginally increases the time it takes to consume the supply one already has. One makes the “supply” larger, Nancy, is procuring more of it!
Botox Nancy has suggested tapping into our strategic oil reserves to lower the price of gasoline. What part of “strategic” don’t you understand, Ms. Pelosi? The strategic petroleum reserves are there in case there is an interruption in the flow of oil to this country, say because of a war! There is currently no interruption of oil to this country, just the danged high price (exacerbated by high state and Federal states, which you do have some say over, Nancy!). So, if we tap the reserves and then there is an interruption, what’s “Plan B”, Ms. Pelosi?
Again, drawing from the strategic reserve doesn’t increase the supply, it diverts part of the supply from our country’s “insurance policy” to the domestic market.
If Nancy wasn’t a zillionaire, can you imagine the conversations around the dinner table?

“Kids. Your father and I have decided that we can eat steak instead of pork and beans if we simply cancel our health insurance. Please don’t get sick until we tell you it’s okay. Love Mom!”

The way to increase supply is to increase domestic oil production. Not lease land to the oil companies where they can explore and not produce, not refuse to lease more land if the current leases will not profitably produce oil, drill where the oil is plentiful! Drill here. Drill now.
Oh, and possibly consider removing all economic illiterates from the House and Senate.

    No. The wrinkled up women who seek Botox treatments are already braindamaged. Ask the plastic surgeons.

    w[h]atashi[t]wa[d] finally finds his area of expertise: braindamage.

    On other fronts, Nancy Pelosi was brain dead long before Botox came on the market.

    Does Botox Cause Brain Damage?

    Case in point: Nancy Pelosi.

    Isn’t her having a brain a prerequisite?

  4. RebTex on July 23rd, 2008 at 3:35 pm

    She has a serious rack,though.
    Without which she wouldn’t even land a job as a cashier at a Dollar Store

    Nancy Pelosi can charitably be described as a sniveling cunt. Witness:

    The fact is that the Bush Administration is sitting on 700 million barrels of oil, purchased with our tax dollars, in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. That oil was purchased for an emergency, and with gas at $4 a gallon, it is an emergency for America’s families, for America’s business, and for our country.

    The first President Bush released oil from the SPR. President Clinton released oil from the SPR. This President Bush released oil from the SPR. We want him to do it again. In 1991, the release of oil from the reserve caused an immediate reduction of oil prices of $8 per barrel.

    Americans convinced the Bush Administration to not keep filling the SPR a number of weeks ago. We are calling upon them now to free our oil, call the White House, e-mail the White House so that we can increase the supply to reduce the price at the pump. The President’s number is (202) 456-1414, and his e-mail is comments@WhiteHouse.gov.

    Who is she kidding?

    Nancy Pelosi blocks onshore drilling.
    Nancy Pelosi blocks offshore drilling.
    Nancy Pelosi blocks new “leases” for drilling on land that she doesn’t own.
    Nancy Pelosi blocks scheduling for permitting new oil refineries.
    Nancy Pelosi blocks construction of new refineries.

    Instead, she wants to tap the SPR, something that is supposed to be for national emergencies, not 4 dollar a gallon gas.

    Nancy Pelosi, and most of the rest of the dim-bulbed Democrats for that matter, are telling us that billions, if not trillions, of barrels of untapped oil will have no affect on the market, but 700 million barrels will.

    The woman is either incredibly obtuse or incredibly calculating. One thing is certain, and that is the latch-key Democrats who run around calling everybody else “stupid” truly own that label.

    On the plus side, Nancy Pelosi commits to “achieving energy independence within 10 years”, whatever the hell that is supposed to mean considering that she blocks all efforts at energy independence.

    Nancy Pelosi wants to open up the nation’s strategic oil reserves to lower prices.

    This shows that Nancy Pelosi understands the law of supply and demand.

    So why does she block drilling? What’s her agenda?

  7. Mickey on July 23rd, 2008 at 5:06 am

    funny picture spark…

    Is that Nancy prior to her most recent injection?

    Pelosi is playing politics. If Obama wins they will begin domestic drilling on day 2 of his initial term. Everyone is so used to lies from Democrats that no one expects otherwise.

    So why does she block drilling? What’s her agenda?

    The way I see it, it’s all about the acquisition and retention of power. The Dems have a scorched earth policy whenever the Republicans are in the White House. They refuse to let a single iota of credit go to a Republican President, no matter how deserving. Should a Dem take the White House, the brakes come off and it’s the road to economic prosperity! (while simultaneously funding any pet social projects left behind!)

    A great rant, Proof….

    And of course 100% correct.

  10. robert108 on July 25th, 2008 at 6:06 pm

    Yep! The Democrats are big on fascism. They’re always looking for ways to marry the corporations to the government.

    Hillary has certainly said that. Of course, the leftie endgame is totalitarian, one-Party control of all American citizens.

    Oh my goodness! That is creepy!!!

    All I can say is:

    Bless her heart!

  13. Wing Chun Geologist on July 23rd, 2008 at 5:42 am

    One more face lift and Pelosi will have a goatee

  14. Zsa Zsa on July 23rd, 2008 at 4:10 am

    She is a numb skull!

  15. proof_positive on July 25th, 2008 at 4:51 pm

    So why does she block drilling? What’s her agenda?

    The other thing that occurred to me, was that if people get desperate enough from oppressive fuel prices and the inflation that follows, there could be an outcry to nationalize the oil industry. This may be the Liberals endgame.

    After all, they do love Hugh Chavez and his nationalized oil!

    Rodney:

    I’ll ask again, isn’t having a brain a prerequisite? You know, it would ’splain the mind numbingly stupid positions she takes, not to mention the ones she takes as leader of the House of Reps.

    For our purposes.

    Its actually a still from the film ‘Brazil’. That film and ‘12 monkeys’ are excellent, and both by the same guy, i think. at any rate, the set design is similar in both films.

  20. sayanything-81 on July 23rd, 2008 at 4:24 am

    Hee hee. I laughed when I posted it. Not a deadpan delivery, but who can tell?

    Botox? I thought it was more like this:
