What's the most likely result of "Pelosi-gate"?
Conservative Outpost ^

Posted on 05/18/2009 2:04:11 PM PDT by Drew McKissick

In this week's poll we ask for your take on the end result of the whole "Pelosigate" (what did she know, when did she know it) scandal.

Your options:

  1. Republicans manage to force her to testify in any "torture" related hearings
  2. Obama's folks use this as an opportunity to force her out, (like the Bush administration did to Trent Lott years ago)
  3. She backpedals and "revises" her previous statements - all is forgiven
  4. She stands her ground becomes a burden to the Democrats - faces a leadership challenge from Steny Hoyer
  5. She stands her ground and nothing happens - all is well

Click here and cast your vote.

As with all other Democrat scandals... the perp is painted as the VICTIM, and is Promoted to higher ranks of the Democrat Party.

I vote that ironically she accidentally slips and falls and drowns in the bathtub.

Sometimes to get the truth, you need to waterboard. Let’s get the equipment ready for Nancy. I’d rather see her in a wet towel contest (while under oath) rather than a wet Tee shirt contest.

What’s the most likely result?

Pelosi will be named to explain why Obama does not need to produce his long form Birth Certificate allegedly issued by Hawaii.

My answer: 4.5

Reasoning: The CIA will extract their “pound of flesh” from Nan at cruicial points (Budget time, for instance) and over policy matters (CIA hardline in Pakistan). They will leak at opportune moments to immobilize her oppostion.

It will go away quickly by way of distraction.
I think she was banking on the Notre Dame flap sidetracking it enough to let her get by... but I’m sure Obama will be able to come up with something more newsworthy within a week.

I vote 5.

The rats never really cared about waterboarding. They were just hoping it was a “gotcha moment”

How are you going to waterboard this?

“What’s the most likely result of “Pelosi-gate”?”

Are we assuming the Republicans have a set of cajones on them?

With Cajones - She will either resign or the Republicans will win some serious concessions from Obama and will still use it in 2010.

Without Cajones - Democrats blame the Republicans who cave in and lose more seats in 2010 because Pelosi and the Mediacrats blame Republicans for a witchhunt without merit.

dittos to ‘all is forgiven’ valk. our gutless side will not have the stones to pursue this any farther. now if the situation were reversed the democRATS would completely destroy their target, fast and with no mercy.

It’s interesting, again, that the Democrats stand behind their liars, while the GOP gets rid of our scum. I still think this is a strength, but it’s at best a mixed blessing.

2, 3 or 5. I just don’t have enough information about the motives of the players.
