Grabbing popcorn and soda. This should be good.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We need her. Really!
I’ll join you. :-)
Not a chance in hell. Democrats NEVER resign... that’s what Republicans do.
The Republicans have a golden opportunity to accuse her of a felony here. If they turn their countless cheeks, the dims will be emboldened and do worse and worse.
I imagine she's helping with the GOP fundraising.
she should, but she won’t..she’s a dem and they’re immune..(See William Jefferson D-LA for a prime example)..
We all need to contact our representatives. DO NOT let Pelosi get away with her felony. If she does not get prosecuted, than our laws mean absolutely NOTHING.

Let your representative know that you want Pelosi to be held accountable for violating the Logan Act.
No, Nancy Pelosi shouldn`t resign. She should be arrested and tried for treason.
Stupidity and arrogance are not crimes, last time I checked. What else can Pelosi be charged with?
By a democrat about a democrat...interesting. Is this [idea] getting any traction, though.
I think all Freepers should write their representatives and demand her resignation.
May she go in disgrace and drag as many Liberal traitors as she can with her.
Works for me!
Pelosi, Reid, Jefferson, Feinstein, Clinton, and Durbin should resign just for starters.
Succession??????????

Illegal Diplomacy
By ROBERT F. TURNER
April 6, 2007; Page A10
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi may well have committed a felony in traveling to Damascus this week, against the wishes of the president, to communicate on foreign-policy issues with Syrian President Bashar Assad. The administration isn’t going to want to touch this political hot potato, nor should it become a partisan issue. Maybe special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald, whose aggressive prosecution of Lewis Libby establishes his independence from White House influence, should be called back.
The “Logan Act” makes it a felony and provides for a prison sentence of up to three years for any American, “without authority of the United States,” to communicate with a foreign government in an effort to influence that government’s behavior on any “disputes or controversies with the United States.” Some background on this statute helps to understand why Ms. Pelosi may be in serious trouble.
President John Adams requested the statute after a Pennsylvania pacifist named George Logan traveled to France in 1798 to assure the French government that the American people favored peace in the undeclared “Quasi War” being fought on the high seas between the two countries. In proposing the law, Rep. Roger Griswold of Connecticut explained that the object was, as recorded in the Annals of Congress, “to punish a crime which goes to the destruction of the executive power of the government. He meant that description of crime which arises from an interference of individual citizens in the negotiations of our executive with foreign governments.”
Who will be the first Republican with the guts to demand that she resigns?!
We meed to pursue this with the same persistence that the Rats use.
