Nancy Pelosi is a saint

Last Saturday afternoon, in Washington, D.C., an aide to the former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited the Bishop of the Catholic cathedral in D.C.

He told the Cardinal that Nancy Pelosi would be attending the next day’s
Mass, and he asked if the Cardinal would kindly point out Pelosi to the
congregation and say a few words that would include calling Pelosi a saint.

The Cardinal replied, “No. I don’t really like the woman, and there are
issues of conflict with the Catholic Church over certain of Pelosi’s views.”

Pelosi’s aide then said, “Look, I’ll write a check here and now for a
donation of $100,000 to your church if you’ll just tell the congregation
you see Pelosi as a saint.”

The Cardinal thought about it and said, “Well, the church can use the
money, so I’ll work your request into tomorrow’s sermon.”

As Pelosi’s aide promised, Nancy Pelosi appeared for the Sunday worship and
seated herself prominently at the forward left side of the center aisle.
As promised, at the start of his sermon, the Cardinal pointed out that
Nancy Pelosi was present.

The Cardinal went on to explain to the congregation, “While Nancy
Pelosi’s presence is probably an honor to some; the woman is not numbered
among my personal favorite personages. Some of her most egregious views
are contrary to tenets of the Church, and she tends to flip- flop on many
other issues. Nancy Pelosi is a petty, self -absorbed hypocrite, a thumb
sucker, and a nit-wit. Nancy Pelosi is also a serial liar, a cheat, and a
thief. I must say, Nancy Pelosi is the worst example of a Catholic I have
ever personally witnessed. She married for money and is using her wealth
to lie to the American people. She also has a reputation for shirking her
Representative obligations both in Washington , and in California . The
woman is simply not to be trusted.

The Cardinal concluded, “But, when compared with President Obama, Nancy
Pelosi is a saint.”
