PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi is calling for an ethics panel investigation of Rep. David Wu following a published allegation that a woman reported he'd engaged in unwanted sexual behavior toward her.

Quite a few prominent Dems can be called a one-man freakshow, a one-woman freakshow, or “other”.

The Left can call a member before an Ethics Panel with no problem. If found guilty, Wu just says “Sorry, but I sometimes have an ethical lapse.”

Case closed. He doesn’t get kicked out or anything. Life as a Democrat goes on.

For a Republican, it’s the mirror image.

“Unwanted sexual contact” = rape.

Even Nancy Pelosi must admit Wu is Wong.

Well, the way the headline and excerpt are written, it says that she is calling for an investigation into the reports of Wu's wrongdoing, not the wrongdoing per se.

If that interpretation is true, they're trying to burn the persons blowing the whistle and not the perp.

Years ago on CSI (the original), Grissom investigated a murder at a "Plushies and Fuzzies" convention. I thought it was a marvelous fictional invention.

Well, as they say about another crime show, "ripped from the headlines."

Oh, please...this is Orygonne where every rat is safe from any crime or bad pr. done while in office. The long list of crimes includes statutory rape, obstruction of justice, DUI, stalking, sexual predatation, attempted rape, and rape...the accused were two mayors, two governors, and two congress men.

See, now that she’s no longer in charge, she can call for all the investigations as “proof” that her reign was the “most ethical of all time”, and that after the Democrats were removed from power everything went to Hell in a handbasket.

If only Pelosi still wielded that gavel, we wouldn’t have Rep. Wu acting like a pervert! See what you evil, angry Conservatives did by tossing Nancy aside? It’s ALL YOUR FAULT!

Pelosi just wants to be the first to see the pics then accidentally on purpose lose them.
