There is so much wrong with the Conyers situation that Pelosi shouldn’t have to think twice about nixing Conyers’ chairmanship. Let us look at how the Conyers scandal epitomizes the ethics mess in the House:
First, releasing its report late on Friday before the New Year’s holiday weekend made it clear that the House “Ethics” Committee intended to minimize public understanding of the Conyers scandal. This is classic Washington Establishment manipulation of the news cycle to insulate itself against public accountability.
Second, Conyers responded to the “Ethics” committee by “accepting responsibility” for a “lack of clarity” in asking aides to work on his re-election campaign while on the official payroll instead of going on a campaign staff, as the law requires, and to do personal chores for him. The allegations came from senior staff members, including a former chief of staff, not interns or other short-term aides who might have questionable motives.
Third, the “Ethics” committee report also concerned a second investigation of Conyers from 2003 on allegations that his aides also worked on the Carol Mosely-Braun presidential campaign and JoAnn Watson’s Detroit City Council race. Would Conyers have applied the same slipshod legal standards to his Bush impeachment effort?
Fourth, the Conyers scandal shows it’s still business as usual for the “Ethics” committee. Pelosi should demand that Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., and Rep. Howard Berman, D-Calif., the committee leaders who signed off on the Conyers report, be removed permanently from the panel and barred from leadership of other House panels.
Finally, Pelosi should heed ... Leon Panetta, who said “you can attack one party for having a lack of ethics, but if any of your own members have problems, it dulls the message with the American people, they begin to put everybody in the same box.”

For those who don't already know this, Pelosi REFUSED to demand that Studds('Rat congressman who was having an affair with a page) to resign AND ENDORSED HIS REELECTION.
So Pelosi has about as much credibility as a screen door on a submarine.
To Pelosi, "cleaning it up", mean whitewashing it.
Answer: No, just in witch-hunts against conservatives and Republicans...
Just like she is serious about her Catholic faith I guess. I found it a little revolting when she made the sign of the cross when she paid her respects at President Ford's casket. All those dead babies would find that gesture just a bit hypocritical.
Bela is interested in only one thing -- POWER -- hers and the RATs.
Hell hath no fury like a Bela Pelosi in charge of the House of Representatives. We can only hope and pray that the GOP members can keep her in check.

Does a bear crap in the men's restroom?
Are you talking about Papa Bear, Mama Bear or Baby Bear?
Is the Pope Muslim?
Have you asked him?
Is the sky iridescent green?
I'm color blind and it might be.
Do "progressives" really care about the poor?
Absolutely. As long as you don't whine about my using your country club dues to pay the tab.
My tongue in cheek replies are meant to warn you right here and now that Democrats know how to run Congress and if Nancy isn't up to the task she'll be gone in a nano-second...and Democrats know how to get Bob Woodward to speak to the dead, without a medium and the Republicans are going to be severely and justifiably punished for being disloyal to their President.
Thanks for the upbeat take on everything...
Frankly the President as a lame duck is better off working with a Democrat Congress. No names to name and no promises to keep.
She can clean my house, it's filthy.
Did you hear the one about the hooker who went up to a really old guy on the street and said,
"For 50 bucks I'll do anything you want."
And he replied,
"Anything? For 50 bucks?"
She nodded yes.
He replied,
"Paint my house"
If she did, they'd have her out of there, flickering tongue,nictitating membrane and rattling tale in a second.
Someone's got to do it.
If you think the GOP was bad. Just give the Democrats a couple of years in office. They will make the last congress look clean in comparison.
No she is not serious about it. Wouldn't even occur to her. And if it did, her demo colleagues would disabuse her of that quaint notion.
