We need to pressure our Republican leaders to prosecute Ms. Polosi for violation of the Logan Act as per the WSJ article.

Agreed. Just don’t prosecute her right now.

She is the doing such a bang up job of exposing her foolishness.

In the 1990s, New Gingrich addressed the Israeli Knesset against the wishes of the Clinton Administration...

If Newt was invited to address a foreign nation's legislature--an ally and a democracy--that is a far cry from sucking up to a communist like Ortega and a sponsor of terror in Assad.

The dictator of Syria has American and Jewish blood on his hands; and Pelosi is sucking up to him.

I think the differences between what she did and what Newt did are about as far apart as one can imagine.

I really do not know of a Republican in the House or Senate that has the backbone to stand up to the Democrats. They are all afraid that the NYT or the Washington Post or CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC will call them right wing bigots and Nazi fellows.

Unless we can somehow find a Republican with the backbone to stand up to the enemy there is no need to write them as they will do nothing and will act like deflated balloons as they are doing right now.

The only Republican that has a proven backbone is Rudy. As usual, they will sit by quietly ruining another apportunity to condemn the democrats. GWB included.

I agree with you. Any clue as to who would lead this charge? We need a Republican with a spine and some clout. Right now, I can’t think of one.

The Blue Dog Democrats are the ones to oust Pelosi Galore and that would have more traction than anything the Pubs could do...

It was wrong when Jim Wright did it

That sounds like an updated Abbott and Costello bit:

Did someone violate the Logan Act before Pelosi?
Wright?
Who?
Wright.
Was he right?
Wrong.
Who was wrong?
Wright.

IMO, Pelosi is going to continue to make mistakes and expose herself as incompetent. Without our help. All by her little ole self.

Bless her heart.

All it takes is a Federal Prosecutor, not a member of the House or Senate.

And not Bush, this is a violation of Federal Law.

The Logan Act

I agree that Pelosi should be prosecuted, but how on earth will we convince the spineless Republicans to pursue this action?

Well I can’t believe what some are saying, don’t do this as she will become a victim. So we are to just continue to let the Liberals violate our laws because some here do not want us to look bad in the press.

I am starting to think we have more liberals here then I had thought in the past.

Thank-you. You saved me quite a few keystrokes.
