Nancy "Hands-a-Blur" Pelosi reads Bono poem to comfort Ukrainians who hopefully don't speak English

House Speaker [for now] Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) teased us that she would be reading a poem at Congress' annual Friends of St. Patrick luncheon. The poem was written by Irish rock singer Paul David Hewson [aka Bono] to help assuage the death and destruction on the Ukrainian people because all the Ukrainian people need is love and a Bono poem to take the edge off the war. It seemed as if Pelosi pulled this poem out from her nether regions as it surprised the American public. People on Twitter asked "Why?"

The answer as to "why" may be as simple as to why whenever PINO Joe Biden tries to sound coherent, his words make as much sense as Mandarin does to a Venusian. 

Bono, you may know, is the lead singer of U2, a group named after a spy plane shot down over Russia in 1960 flown by Francis Gary Powers. The poem compared St. Patrick to the Jewish Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

After reading the social media responses to the reading by "Hands-a-Blur," the main statement could be summed up in three letters: WTF. 

The poetry reading and the poem were as bizarre as Brian Stelter's claim that he is straight.

As flagged by Greg Price, Pelosi told the media Thursday morning, “I will be reading a poem written by Bono about Ukraine which you might find interesting.”

One Twitter user opined:

Good god this is getting worse every single day. The kabuki theater and virtue signaling from hell. Only war escalation and zero efforts toward peace. This country is lost

Paisano is correct, it is Kabuki theater: a form of Japanese dramas where the acting is heavy and the  costumes are elaborate. In this case, Nancy Pelosi was trying to be serious but she wasn't able to pull it off.

Some additional tweets from a few blue checks:

Imagine if Pelosi became POTUS.

Immediately prior to introducing River Dance, that Irish tap dancing where the legs moved at the speed of sound while the arms and torso remained straight up, Pelosi read the Bono poem. It sounded like it was written as a "go to the blackboard and write a poem" high school assignment and Nancy didn't pull it off very well either.

“I got this message this morning from Bono,” Pelosi said before reading the rhyme. “Most of us — whether we’re in Ireland or here — Bono has been a very Irish part of our lives,” she added.

Here's the poem:

Oh Saint Patrick he drove out the snakes; With his prayers but that’s not all it takes; For the snake symbolizes; An evil that rises; And hides in your heart; As it breaks; And the evil has risen my friends; From the darkness that lives in some men; But in sorrow and fear; That’s when saints can appear; To drive out those old snakes once again; And they struggle for us to be free; From the psycho in this human family; Ireland’s sorrow and pain; Is now the Ukraine; And Saint Patrick’s name now Zelenskyy.

The Federalist’s Ben Domenech tweeted something that some may have considered:

Is this a prank? Did someone pretend to be Bono and sent her this?

Pelosi was simply keeping in the same form as she did when, on January 6, she invited the cast of the broadway musical “Hamilton” to preform one of its songs and discuss equity.

The next thing you know, Hollywood will use Stacy Abrams to play President of the Earth. Oh wait, they did.

As weird as the Jan. 6 "Hamilton" appearance was, and Stacy Abrams playing President of the Earth, this limerick-sounding rhyme was the winner of the Weirdest Thing A Leading Democrat Has Done award.

Perhaps Nancy Pelosi, with the help of Bono, are hoping to cause Russian President Vladimir Putin to laugh himself to death. They already tried and failed doing that with Rear Admiral Rachel Levine.
