Pelosi Caves on Drilling: Plays Political Chess

It seems that Nancy Pelosi has given up on her plan to save the planet.  She has caved on permitting a vote for more drilling, but with liberal conditions that make the legislation worthless. Pelosi seems to be content holding America’s Energy Policy hostage to her socialist, San Francisco agenda. Pelosi has been pretty busy fighting off her kook fringe base, while unsuccessfully promoting her new book. In fact, it’s been really rough going out there for Queen Nancy as of late. Her left flank is on fire.

Her book is proving to be a humiliating defeat.
