Oh well.

Just another democrat.

Pelosi couldn’t drain the swamp because the swamp is her lifeline.

[george76]

a new or expanded inquiry ?

[berdie]

*chuckle*

It’s so nice that the LA Times is worried about Pelosi’s comfort level as opposed to holding public officials (Rangel) accountable for their illegal actions. (obvious sarcasm)

[FrankR]

The democrats and the pelosi congress is starting to remind me of the points on "Whose Line Is It Anyway"...you know, "the points don't matter".

Well, with the democrats, "The promises don't matter". A democrat never met a promise s/he couldn't break and the media wouldn't cover for.

[prismsinc]

Why all the hiding of impropriety? One of the biggest crooks was Eclair, and the majority voted for him. Who cares? Pelosi and Rangel should just come out and say they take what they want because they’re entitled and we aren’t. It’s not punishable if a Democrat does it, so why hide it? And the LA Times too! Just come out and say the Dems can do anything, it’s not wrong?

The word “Shame” isn’t in their vocabulary. Why start now?

[icwhatudo]

Most ethical congress ever!

[BAW]

Rangel . . without a care in the world:

[ChetNavVet]

Why not just investigate PelaBelaGosi herself? No need to step on anyones toes there, she has more skeletons (like her real face LOL) and “other stuff” to keep truth mindid folk ocupied for at least two years.

Nancy Belalagosie, please go away. At least shut the you know what up.

[paudio]

Well, at least HRH Pelosi doesn’t have to be bothered by another Dims crooked congressman, Jefferson (D-La).

[Tzimisce]

Since when did libs start believing things like “rules” and “ethics” applied to them?

[headstamp 2]

“Rep. Charles Rangel’s ethics inquiry may put Pelosi in a bind”

Nah.

Did you look for a printer friendly link at the LA Times? I couldn't find one for Pakistan militant base reportedly raided

Maybe Rangel's and Pelosi's chickens are coming home to roost?

[dalight]

Name one little bitty bit of the swamp that Nancy even attempted to sop with even a paper towell.

She isn't draining it. She is pouring in water and stirring.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

If Pelosi were to be eaten by an alligator in the “swamp of corruption”, that poor animal would die of food poisoning.

Pelosi makes the mafia look like amateurs.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Rangel has “ethics?” I’m shocked and appalled.

Maybe Cool Cash Jefferson would like a cellmate?

I have always loved the brilliant Republican tabloid NY Post headlines, such as "Headless Man found in Topless Bar":

Ha ha! One of my old bosses always joked about that one. Wasn't that in the World Weekly News, though?
