Look it’s Nancy Pelosi’s official YouTube “Cat Cam”! Nancy what the hell! (And thank you for the informational annotation at the end, we get it, you’re hip for an older lady.) [YouTube]

    Certainly not the last time we’ll be rick-rolled by Nancy the Pelosi.

  2. Tommmcatt says at 2:13 pm, January 13th, 2009

    It just doesn’t compare with Dick Cheney’s little-known “Piranha Cam” , does it?

  3. Gopherit says at 2:14 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Rick-roll’d by Nancy Pelosi? I have reached a new official low. Thx wonkette.

  4. shanemacgowan says at 2:14 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Newt never rickrolled anyone.

  5. That’s quite possibly the funniest thing a Speaker of the House has ever done, in history.

  6. BillyClubb says at 2:16 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Oh the fancy Klezmer music that plays along in the background, and…. oh… you rickrolling bastards!!

  7. Also, doesn’t this mean Nancy Pelosi has violated the DMCA, which she quite possibly voted for?

  8. Shark = jumped.

    This is like that time my mom asked if I watched Curb Your Enthusiasm.

  9. From now onwards, adoption by the Speaker of the House will mark the official death of a meme. I can’t wait till she returns amendments proposed by Republicans with a giant red FAIL stamped on top.

  10. An old woman and her cats. Original.

  11. user-of-owls says at 2:21 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Bet the F#$%* You, Penguin guy could have some fun with this.

  12. medievalist says at 2:22 pm, January 13th, 2009

    jagorev: In that case, thank God she’s finally put it in its grave. They even had a rickroll at the damn Macy’s parade.

  13. shortsshortsshorts says at 2:23 pm, January 13th, 2009

    RICKROLL= in the grave. Over. Should have elected Sheehan (wait did I just say that?)

  14. assistant/atlas says at 2:26 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Wait until the right wing hears about how much Nancy loves her pussy.

    jagorev: Know where I can get one of those FAIL stamps? That would be useful at work.

  15. upsidedownpaddle says at 2:26 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Wow, Dennis Kucinich sure looked hungry.

  16. Lascauxcaveman says at 2:26 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Awwww… cats R sure cute!

  17. hrhkingfriday says at 2:28 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Why aren’t you liveblogging Hillary’s hearing?? SEXISTS.

  18. facehead says at 2:28 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Stupid pussies.

    Here’s what her staff REALLY does with their time:

  19. earthadellic says at 2:30 pm, January 13th, 2009

    this video sucks, download crayon physics now.

  20. finallyhappy says at 2:30 pm, January 13th, 2009

    The Sanchez sisters have a beagle that comes to the office- watch out, Speaker cats.

  21. ManchuCandidate says at 2:31 pm, January 13th, 2009

    We always knew the Demrats were pussies. This just proves it.

  22. Canuckledragger says at 2:32 pm, January 13th, 2009

    If Nancy’s into cats, WHY do the PUMAs hate her so? I thought a taste for pussy was a distinct advantage in that social circle????

    Then again, I have a great fondness for pussy, and they hate ME.

    Must be ‘coz I’m a dog guy.

  23. bitchincamaro says at 2:32 pm, January 13th, 2009

    That’s odd. If you click GO on the mortgagerelief411.com banner, it takes you directly to the same clip.

  24. Gallowglass says at 2:40 pm, January 13th, 2009

    That was quite an experience. I’ve studiously avoided being rickroll’d so far, but damned if you didn’t get me Madame Speaker.

  25. Gallowglass says at 2:42 pm, January 13th, 2009

    facehead: Ahh! Now twice in one day!

  26. kan i haz last 1:12 of my life back plz?

  27. Clancy_Pants says at 2:46 pm, January 13th, 2009

    The only thing more lame then getting Rickrolled by the Speaker of the House is having her explain it by telling us to use the Google… maybe she was thinking W might find the clip on the internets?

  28. I am going to start a new meme, Nanc-jacking, in which viewers expecting to see a video clip of Rick Astley are suddenly and without warning confronted with video of Nancy Pelosi discussing a motion to recommit taken from the 2007 floor debate on the omnibus appropriations bill.

  29. Wasn’t rickrolling officially Over when he sang that stupid song in the Macy’s parade on Thanksgiving?

  30. lawrenceofthedesert says at 2:49 pm, January 13th, 2009

    The cats look well cared for; let’s hope the voters get some of that TLC in 2009, too.

  31. jagorev: Let’s hope she starts concluding all her quips with “Also.”, and officially kills off that friggin’ mini-meme before it gets entirely out of hand.

  32. Packherd says at 2:51 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Well, rick rolling is no longer a meme.

    Next up: Barney Frank makes advice dogs.

  33. assistant/atlas: That is an excellent idea. I’m going to get a custom one here -

  34. problemwithcaring says at 2:53 pm, January 13th, 2009

    There is nothing funny about this, save for the fact that it ensures no one will ever intentionally go to that youtube channel ever again.

  35. Deepthroat says at 2:54 pm, January 13th, 2009

    i prefer the Beaker version

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KANI2dpXLw

    Do i seriously need to stop including links referencing every comment i post here? *ok*

  36. lawrenceofthedesert: Rest assured, boxes to poop in will be provided for the nation’s newly homeless. It’s part of the stimulus package.

  37. sati demise says at 2:58 pm, January 13th, 2009

    can I haz impeachmeownt?

  38. Johnny Zhivago says at 3:01 pm, January 13th, 2009

    What’s so funny, it was just take your cat to work day…

  39. twingonaut says at 3:02 pm, January 13th, 2009

    I liked the laissez-faire style of Parisian accordian music. It made me think about how life is difficult in the world, but simple pleasures can still be had. THEN when the rick was rolled I remembered how funny Jerry Lewis truly is. Pure genius!

    Now I’ll sit hear with my herbal tea and enjoy it again….and again.

    Buttsecks aside, I’m with you Dave-J on the Nanc-jacking…can we call it something less stomach churning?

  40. Where are the ‘IZ IN UR OFFICE, IMPEACHIN UR DUDES’ and ‘IZ NOM NOM NOMINATIN U’ and ‘UR GAVEL HAS A SMELL’ captions?

  41. assistant/atlas says at 3:06 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Oh hey, I just remembered that horrible economic depression and two wars that we’re in, also … maybe Nancy can work on those before she makes more cat videos again. Also, if this was made with any taxpayer money at all, I’m becoming a deficit hawk.

  42. AngryBlakGuy says at 3:07 pm, January 13th, 2009

    ManchuCandidate: …haven’t you heard the saying , “You are what you eat”? I guess that’s why I refer to Republicans as “Dicks” and “Assholes”!

  43. ManchuCandidate says at 3:10 pm, January 13th, 2009

    AngryBlakGuy:
    Heh. I guess I’m a pussy, too.

    I guess you should call the Repubs, “Young boys” and “Twinks” as well.

  44. The Cold Sea says at 3:13 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Seriously, Nancy! You got work to do. I feel like my boss when he walks be and sees me checking out *those* sites. Time is money, Pelosi! You got time to rick-roll America, you got time to stimulus America’s package!

  45. chascates says at 3:19 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Cats are pretty unmanageable. It would be more appropriate for her to have a jelly-fish cam, i.e., no spine.

  46. Deepthroat says at 3:48 pm, January 13th, 2009

    TGY: WIN

  47. assistant/atlas: This was probably made by an unpaid intern. Gotta admit, as far as unpaid DC internships go, being forced to play with Nancy’s pussy is probably a lot better than any assignment the College Republican/LNS kids get.

  48. That was queer.

  49. Jukesgrrl says at 4:03 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Let me know if anyone sees her with trucknutz so I can get ready to be raptured.

  50. Barack Like Me, Bitches says at 4:31 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Never woulda thunkit but YouTube commentator gets teh WIN!

    To witz n shitz:

    mcgrewrich (25 minutes ago)

    The Speaker of the House not only rickrolled you and me, but she rickrolled America, after showing us her LOLcats. But it isnt Caturday! And the LOLcats forgot to say anything! You cant do that on the Internet! The Internet is Serious Business™. Its not a big truck(nutz). Its a series of tubes. And if you dont understand, those tubes can be filled and if they are filled… what happens to your own personal Internet?

    As usual, a Democrat didn’t even do it right. I don’t feel officially rick-rolled unless it’s the whole song. I mean, that dude is hot. Cutting him off like that keeps me hanging.

    And couldn’t those cats flush the toilet or eat popcorn on a piano? Jaw juicing her dildo is also lame.

  52. facehead says at 5:59 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Deepthroat: That completely ruined my e-hard-on for hilarious muppet bloopers.

  53. Scandalabra says at 7:00 pm, January 13th, 2009

    Doesn’t the Nance know that Fuck You Penguin has already won the weblog awards?

  54. assistant/atlas says at 8:36 pm, January 13th, 2009

    jagorev: There is an awesome joke in there about the job duties of republican interns but I am too drunk to think of it right now.

  55. fuckinredneck says at 9:54 pm, January 13th, 2009

    I was enjoying a youtube cat video when all of a sudden that pop star Rick Astley appeared! This is some strange brand of modern humour!
