Yes, the wuss Democrats are afraid of being accountable [...]

Rep. Eric Massa (D-NY) has a theory: his own party’s leaders are behind the ethics investigation to force his resignation.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) picked who got to fly to Copenhagen to “attend” the U.N. climate summit, which as we all know, turned out to be a disaster. It was a waste of carbon and apparently, taxpayer money:
Our investigation found that the congressional delegation was so large, it needed three military jets: two 737’s [...]

Forget transparency. That word is unknown to this Congress, especially to leaders Pelosi and Reid. After ramming the health care bill through before Christmas, now they are working behind closed doors — shutting out Republicans and even some Democrats — to merge the House and Senate bills:
