The Wheels On The Bus Go Bump, Bump, Bump
Democrats may have begun to eat their own.
Steny Hoyer, Democrat representative of Maryland and current House Majority leader has been purported to have a long held grudge against Pelosi ever since she became speaker. It appears as if many Democrats are letting Pelosi hang herself and slowly backing away from her and her statements regarding the CIA made earlier today.
Rep. Steny Hoyer, the House majority leader, panned the recent criticism of Pelosi as a “distraction” during a verbal tangle with Republican Whip Eric Cantor on the House floor.
But when asked directly whether he shares Pelosi’s belief that the CIA misled Congress, he backed off.
“I have no idea of that. I don’t have a belief of that nature because I have no basis on which to base such a belief,” Hoyer said. “And I certainly hope that’s not the case. And I don’t draw that conclusion.”
Other members of Congress are also not backing up Pelosi’s claims. Senator Lieberman was interviewd on NBC today and supported the CIA over Nancy Pelosi’s “misleading” statements.
Time to break out the popcorn… it was only a matter of time – I’m sure this won’t be the last either!
