Today\’s quote comes to us from former San Francisco house member, former Speaker of the House, and perennial partisan hatchetperson, Nancy Pelosi.
Here is Ms. Pelosi\’s demand, regarding Speaker of the House Boehner\’s creation of a select committee on Benghazi:
“If this review is to be fair, it must be truly bipartisan. The panel should be equally divided between Democrats and Republicans as is done on the House Ethics Committee. It should require that witnesses are called and interviewed, subpoenas are issued, and information is shared on a bipartisan basis. Only then could it be fair.”
Very impressive. Except….
…in 2007, when Democrats had a house majority and Ms. Pelosi was Speaker of the House, she appointed a Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming – comprised of 9 Democrats and 6 Republicans.
A perfect storm of dishonesty, partisanship, hypocrisy and overall chutzpah like this has to win Quote Of The Day honors hands-down.
Congratulations Nancy, you certainly earned it.
