Nancy Pelosi on tax bill: Greedy, cruel, Republicans vote to kill Tiny Tim

Earlier today, before the House re-voted to pass the GOP tax bill, Nancy Pelosi was once again allowed to speak in public. I'm not sure why Democrats keep letting this embarrassment get in front of microphones but, as long as they're willing to tolerate the embarrassment, we're willing to keep spotlighting it.

Republicans have voted to kill Tiny Tim

If you think it would be impossible for Pelosi to out-hyperbole herself, you're probably not alone. I mean, once you've declared a tax cut is the literal end of the world, where do you go? You go to the beloved Muppet version of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. Behold the most craven, ghastly, exploitative, pandering, despicable, grotesque, display of political smarm you are ever likely to see. Republicans have voted to kill Tiny Tim. Pelosi, we're sure, would have done the humane thing and aborted Tiny Tim so he wouldn't be such a headache.
