Oh, What A Difference Party Makes

Nancy Pelosi, following the indictment of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay back on September 28, 2005:

“The criminal indictment of Majority Leader Tom DeLay is the latest example that Republicans in Congress are plagued by a culture of corruption at the expense of the American people.”
Fast forward to today, and here's what she says about the indictment of Rep. William Jefferson, of her own party:
“The charges in the indictment against Congressman Jefferson are extremely serious. While Mr. Jefferson, just as any other citizen, must be considered innocent until proven guilty, if these charges are proven true, they constitute an egregious and unacceptable abuse of public trust and power.
So, Democrats are given the benefit of the doubt--they are considered innocent until proven guilty--while Republicans like Tom DeLay, who was the victim of a politically motivated indictment, are immediately part of a "culture of corruption."

The Democrats have failed miserably. They have yet to have one part of their "first 100 hours" agenda signed into law. Right now I see a party whose members are full of hot air and who are making hollow promises to the American taxpayers.

Thankfully we have people like Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA-5) and others who have never lost their vision for the party or for America's future. Congresswoman McMorris Rodgers and her fellow Republicans are working hard on the issues which will have the most impact on our small businesses, farmers, working families, homeowners, and taxpayers across our entire country. REAL lawmakers like her do not care who gets the credit, they just want to do the job the we expect of them and to do it right!

Instead of pretending that the liberation in Iraq is the only issue before the American people, our members are working hard on alternative energy, making tax relief permanent, ensuring that we have a competitive 21st century workforce, and access to affordable health care. The Republicans in Congress also look for long term and cost effective solutions that target the real challenges that we are facing. Their solutions do not call for hire taxes and they seek to limit the size and scope of government.

Nancy Pelosi, Hilary Clinton, Harry Reid, and the other ultra liberal Democrats believe that government is the solution. We Republicans know that it is the problem and that the best way to prosper is through free markets and getting the government out of the way of the private sector's way!

Democrats are innocent until proven guilty yet Republicans are forced to resign before found guilty. Typical.

At least the left leaning blogs are calling for his resignation. Pelosi did say that he should be stripped of all his committees. She should have called for his resignation. The case looks pretty clear to everyone, except Jefferson.
