Pelosi Nails Delay for Hypocrisy On Ethics

Pelosi called for a restoration of the House's "bipartisan and effective ethics process," charging that "Republicans have created a democracy-free zone." And she took aim at a subject close to DeLay's heart: the GOP's Contract with America: "[House Republicans] pledged in their Contract with America to 'restore accountability to Congress' and to 'end its cycle of scandal and disgrace.' Instead of sticking to their word, they have broken their promises, betrayed the public trust, and abused their power. Specifically, they have undermined the ethics of the House, abandoned any principle of procedural fairness or democratic accountability, and overreached into private family matters and the federal judiciary."
