Pelosi is Useless

This is supposed to be the leader of our Party in the House. Yet she's going along with Hastert and Co.'s cronyism.

Honestly, Rep. Pelosi, how are we supposed to support bringing corrupt Republicans to justice when we are helping them defeat the very tactics that could end their corruption? How can you not see that all Hastert's posturing is about is saving his own party's ass in the months ahead?

It's not enough to "not defend" Jefferson. It's even worse when you support Hastert's defense of him. What you should be doing is condemning his actions and demanding his resignation... not from a committee assignment, but from the House of Representatives altogether. Let the people of New Orleans pick someone better.
