What'd She Mean?

".....I think she has a different experience in the use of words...."
-- Nancy Pelosi

In trying to explain Ilhan Omar's commentary, Nancy put out the quote.

It'd be like me saying 'I'm thirsty', and you believe that I meant that I need a beer awful bad.

Or, it could be me saying....'That dog sure is funny', and you interpreting it to mean that I'm talking about some guy's wife.

Or, it could be me saying....'I need some salt and pepper for my beans', and you interpreting it to mean that it's awful bland and taste marginal. 

Or, it could be my brother saying....'It might be sprinkling this afternoon', and me interpreting it to mean a possible tornado alert. 

Or, it could be Nancy Pelosi saying....'We need to pass this bill, to find out what's in it.'  Then I interpret it to mean that she's not read a single page of the bill, but doesn't worry if it's awful screwed up.

To be honest, if this is the path to democracy.....it's probably not the road that you'd prefer to take.
