Four years ago, Nancy Pelosi and her fellow Congressional Democrats took control of Washington with a promise to drain the so-called "swamp" of corruption and have, as she said, "The most honest, the most open and the most ethical Congress in history."
The recent sexual harassment allegations against Democrat Congressman Eric Massa and the continuing ethics investigations into Congressman Charlie Rangel's illegal Caribbean junkets and failure to pay federal taxes on unreported income serves as a stark reminder that the Democrats have largely failed the American people.
Pelosi and the Democrats' pledges to "change" Washington were nothing more than lofty populist campaign rhetoric -- and they must be held responsible for their double-talking, double-dealing ways.
It's time for Nancy Pelosi to stop protecting her liberal allies in Congress and start protecting the American people from corrupt politicians like she promised. Nancy Pelosi and Congressional Democrats have failed the American people by failing to protect them from corrupt politicians.
