NANCY PELOSI THICK INTO ETHICS EXAMPLING?

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi an ethical example for America? I don’t think so.

Again: those in glass houses should not throw stones. Yet Pelosi, considered by some to be a particularly airheaded politico who gives forth with phrases that should have been filtered before hitting the media fan, pokes at US President George W. Bush.

Naturally, this is a given when in her position. But she brings off poking with a particular catch-me-if-you-can flair that is usually relegated only to the dumb.

Nevertheless, Pelosi says that if she were chief executive, she would not tolerate any criminals such as Karl Rove. So there you have it: clean handed and clean hearted Pelosi seated in the Oval Office.

Now when I read that, I wondered: When has Pelosi funneled such disgust and energy channeled against the mushrooming enemy to national security — the Muslim murderers? When has she given to media her plan for undoing those who would cut us off at the knees — Islamic slaughter-bound?

Pelosi, representing the Dems 24-7, has come through once again with carping maximum while completely void of any practical agenda for national advancement, including national safe boundaries implanted.

Tsch. Tsch.

So the Dems continue to march through the summer months — hot and wilted, drooping and groping for the water bucket.

Mr. Bush has informed media that he will have his say when all investigations regarding Rove are completed. Good thinking, Mr. President. Prudent as well. Thank you very much.

As for Pelosi, the sterling example sample for American moral up-climbs, CNSNews.com Senior Editor Susan Jones reports that she "belatedly filed reports for three trips she has accepted from outside sponsors."

Belatedly. Trips. Outside sponsors.

Sniffing around all that, I’d say that Pelosi is not that close to the Oval Office ethical exampling.

So carry on, America.
