Pelosi's Planet

"I'm trying to save the planet; I'm trying to save the planet,"

declares House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, which is a lot for one person. Maybe she should just try to save herself from the embarrassment that comes with spouting such inanities.

When challenged in an interview with Politico.com about her bullheaded refusal to let Republicans submit energy policies for a vote, Pelosi resorted to risible hyperbole to justify her iron-fisted rule of the House parliamentary process.

"I will not have this debate trivialized by their
excuse for their failed policy."


If the San Francisco Democrat's magisterial narcissism isn't off-putting enough, her intent should be. She's saying that her personal importance to the survival of Earth transcends our system of open government, elections and power-sharing. Because she's trying to save the world, she can't be challenged and dissent will not be tolerated...
