Nancy Pelosi Now Reaping What She Sowed

Democratic Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, seems to out of her depth, an ineffective leader of her party and the Congressional chamber.  
 
She has made so many mistakes, including the most egregious, taking impeachment off the table and her outrageous statement about no proof that Bush and crew committed any crimes.
 
Sometimes, its hard to believe that she is a Democrat because she consistently caves to Bush and her Republican Bush rubber stamp colleagues and Blue Dogs in the House, as when she voted for the terrible, anti-Constitution FISA bill, and recently acquiesced to Porter Goss, former resigned in disgrace head of the CIA, as co-chair of the Office of Congressional ethics.
 
And what did she get for her efforts to kowtow to her Republican Minority Leader colleague?  Horse patooties thrown at her.
 
From ThinkProgress: "Last week, House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) lashed out at Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for her refusal to call Congress back into session and succumb to the GOP's political stunts on oil drilling. "The American people are gonna hang her," Boehner told reporters. Rep. George Miller (D-CA) quickly called his comments "offensive, inappropriate and deliberately misleading," Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA) said they were "unfortunate," and Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) called on Boehner to apologize. Today, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) joined in:

 I was disappointed to hear of Minority Leader Boehner's inappropriate comments regarding Speaker PelosiRepublicans are clearly frustrated that the American public is not buying their Johnny-one-note energy policies of the past, but such comments are harmful to a useful debate over our nation's future. I hope the Minority Leader will apologize for his remarks, and work with Democrats in a bipartisan, constructive manner to increase our domestic oil supply, invest in renewable energy and end our dependence on foreign oil.

"Boehner is refusing to back down from his violent rhetoric though, today posting a blog post titled, "Marie Antoinette, the Book Tour."

If she had been true to real Democratic Party roots, and not been a traitor to Democratic principles, and a spineless, nominal leader, Boehner, the cry at the drop of a hat, offensive hypocrite might not have dared do this.   Nancy, you reap what you sow.
