Pelosi Blames Everyone But Herself

What ever happened to “the buck stops here” or the leader taking responsibility?

Well, as usual, liberals have expectations (and demands) of everyone else, and usually end up exempting themselves. Speaker Nancy Pelosi, in all her liberal arrogance, blames everyone else for the historic low opinion numbers for the Congress she leads.

It’s Bush’s fault; it’s the Republicans fault. Poor baby….

Pelosi lays blame for missed goals on Senate

The problem for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi isn’t just President Bush. It’s the Senate.

Pelosi sounded more apologetic than celebratory Friday when she announced with her Senate counterpart, Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, the Democrats’ list of accomplishments six months after they seized control of Capitol Hill and promised “a new direction” in Washington.

“I’m not happy with Congress, either,” Pelosi, of San Francisco, conceded.

She pinned the blame on “the obstructionism of the Republicans in the United States Senate.”

Calm down, Nancy.

Democrats claim to have a “mandate” after the fall election. That being the case, how come some Democrats have joined Republicans and voted against elements of the “new direction”? Maybe Nancy Pelosi should spend more time meeting with, instead of vilifying, the opposition instead of spending time in unauthorized meetings with America’s enemies.

If I may be so bold, leadership is more than just a title. Making public threats and having little hissy fits because you didn’t get your way is not the best way of acting like a leader. Maybe if Pelosi “leads”, people will follow.
