Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters described an eight-hour speech given by her colleague House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi as "the most profound one minute," Wednesday.

Waters, of California, praised Pelosi for refusing to yield her minute on the House floor and for speaking eight hours on the importance of voting on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)

That was indeed the most profound she has been since President Trump's State of the Union speech ...

Well... Pelosi demonstrated her profound contempt for the American people.

Isn’t forcing people to listen to her for eight hours a form of cruel and unusual punishment, which is unconstitutional?

Pelosi is a psychopomp.

She represents no one.

She awaits the death of her party,just like the magic negro who strove for the death of America.

She needs to retire and engage in a stress-less hobby. Like knitting.

(Psychopomps (from the Greek word ;, psuchopompos, literally meaning the "guide of souls")[1] are creatures, spirits, angels, or deities in many religions whose responsibility is to escort newly deceased souls from Earth to the afterlife. Their role is not to judge the deceased, but simply to provide safe passage. Appearing frequently on funerary art, psychopomps have been depicted at different times and in different cultures as anthropomorphic entities, horses, deer, dogs, whip-poor-wills, ravens, crows, owls, sparrows and cuckoos. When seen as birds, they are often seen in huge masses, waiting outside the home of the dying.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopomp

She tied up the House floor for 8 hours over ILLEGALS. The Dems shut down our government over ILLEGALS.

Profound, indeed, but not in the way Maxine Waters means it.

I thought it was Strom Thurmond’s 24 hour 18 minute filibuster to block the Civil Rights Act.

A bag of peanuts is “profound” to Mad Maxine so this really isn’t a big deal.

PROFOUND Mental Retardation

Only 1-2% of the mentally retarded population is classified as profoundly retarded. Profoundly retarded individuals have IQ scores under 20-25. They may be able to develop basic self-care and communication skills with appropriate support and training. Their retardation is often caused by an accompanying neurological disorder. The profoundly retarded need a high level of structure and supervision.
The American Association on Mental Retardation (AAMR) has developed another widely accepted diagnostic classification system for mental retardation. The AAMR classification system focuses on the capabilities of the retarded individual rather than on the limitations. The categories describe the level of support required. They are: intermittent support, limited support, extensive support, and pervasive support. To some extent, the AAMR classification mirrors the DSM-IV classification. Intermittent support, for example, is support needed only occasionally, perhaps during times of stress or crisis. It is the type of support typically required for most mildly retarded individuals. At the other end of the spectrum, pervasive support, or life-long, daily support for most adaptive areas, would be required for profoundly retarded individuals.

Causes and symptoms

Low IQ scores and limitations in adaptive skills are the hallmarks of mental retardation. Aggression, self-injury, and mood disorders are sometimes associated with the disability. The severity of the symptoms and the age at which they first appear depend on the cause. Children who are mentally retarded reach developmental milestones significantly later than expected, if at all. If retardation is caused by chromosomal or other genetic disorders, it is often apparent from infancy. If retardation is caused by childhood illnesses or injuries, learning and adaptive skills that were once easy may suddenly become difficult or impossible to master.

In about 35% of cases, the cause of mental retardation cannot be found.

We have #MeToo.

Now we need #YouFirst, where people like Pelosi, Waters, Schumer, etc, agree to accept a family or families who are illegal into their homes ON A LOTTERY BASIS so they can’t pick who they get, just like we didn’t pick a single one of these illegals to be here in the first place.

#YouFirst

The Dems are playing Russian Roulette with our country; I say THEM FIRST.

This is one of the stupidest, most condescending and insulting remarks (to “brown people”) ever made anywhere, and the fact that she said this on the floor magnifies its offensiveness by a power of ten.

...and former Representative Hank Johnson commended her for not tipping over in spite of the prodigious quantities of Jack Daniels that she consumed while delivering the ‘screech’.
