On Nancy Pelosi Rejecting a Request by Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth, an Iraq War Veteran and Amputee Who's Also Expecting a Child Soon, to Vote on a Rules Committee Issue Via Proxy, Not Based on Any Sort of Moral Grounds but Because Ms. Duckworth is Planning to Vote in a Manner Contra to Pelosi
a) It's spiteful and b) it's hypocritical (the fact that Pelosi is always trumpeting feminist causes and here she is, sticking it not just to a woman but a pregnant woman at that), and why in the hell are we surprised here?

It's all about votes for the Democrat Party, and not about democracy.
Duckworth is used to it: in the
2006 6th District race, the Veterans of Foreign Wars endorsed her opponent, Peter Roskan(R), a
chickenhawk, rather than the
helicopter pilot who lost her legs and still managed to land her craft. Her first experience in
US politics and she lost.
This is friendly fire, though, BB.
Kind of a good point, there, Will. It's the left-wing party, the Dems, eating one of its own.
I'm obviously siding with Duckworth.
