The Heartbreak Continues

"Maybe it takes a woman to clean house," punned Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi shortly after the election. To judge by a report in The Politico, maybe Pelosi should hire a maid:

<<< Pelosi vowed that five-day workweeks would be a hallmark of a harder-working Democratic majority. So far, the House has logged only one. Lawmakers plan to clock three days this week.

The speaker has denied Republicans a vote on their proposals during congressional debates--a tactic she previously declared oppressive and promised to end. Pelosi has opened the floor to a Republican alternative just once. . . .

She is drawing fire for putting Rep. William Jefferson (D-La.), who had $90,000 in alleged bribe money in his freezer, on the Homeland Security Committee. >>>


We're so disillusioned. We really thought the Democrats were going to be different!
