Pelosi Needs To Remove Herself

I find it interesting that William Jefferson (D-LA) was removed from his House leadership position (as was Tom DeLay), but no one has mentioned a single word about Nancy Pelosi's illegal violations earlier this year, for which she was fined. Granted, Jefferson deserves to be removed, but Pelosi is a bit sanctimonious in thinking that she has the right to remove others while she slips her own illegalities under the rug. Peter Flaherty of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review wrote a good article last month about her actions in "What About Pelosi?" (And of course, we could also talk about Harry Reid's own ethics problems.)
