So Pelosi and Obama get a pass because they're just like Bush and he got away with it.
Can our standards get any lower?

She LIED about it....no two ways about it.....If the Obama Administration wants "transparancy" then yes she should resign. I can guarantee you if she was a Republican and did what she did the Democrats would be screaming for her to resign!

Well, of course it is not a lie if SHE said it...

The politics of unrestrained power rear their ugly head again.

Kind of makes you wonder if these people consider what will happen when they are no longer in power. Will people be after them too? Sure leaves the door open.

Something to remember, West Virginia's doddering Robert Byrd is next in line after Pelosi.

No two ways about it huh?

You sound like George W. Bush, there is always only one alternative to everything, "Victory", in this case, taking the word of the Weapons of Mass Destruction CIA.

I know who lied about a threat we faced from nook-ya-ler weapons, as the idiot from Texas liked to call them

I would agree with a two term limit. I think if we get rid of career politicians, we would have more honesty in the Federal Government, and people interested in America and Americans first. That is what they are there for; to represent us

Yes but.... speculation has it that she is being thrown under the bus by her own Party and the question is WHY?

Who would step into her place? Would he/she be even worse for the US?

If she resigns, there is a great future for her as a dance instructor. Tap Dancing could definitely be her specialty.
