Nancy Pelosi Knew About Eric Massa's Sexual Misconduct Before It Went Public


FOXNews.com:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's aides knew about concerns over ex-Rep. Eric Massa's behavior as far back as October, Fox News has learned, raising the possibility that the scandal could dog Democratic leaders even though Massa is now out of office.

On top of that, a slew of outrageous reports and first-hand accounts of Massa's sexual conduct dating back to his Navy days have emerged since his resignation Monday.

Though Massa pledged Tuesday on Fox News to "go away," stories about him "groping" everyone from his Navy buddies to his staff members ensure the New York Democrat's exploits will become the stuff of lore, and countless hours of cable talk, while his fellow party members are trying to concentrate on health care.

Pelosi, in an interview on PBS' "The Charlie Rose Show" Wednesday, shook her head at the situation, saying "poor baby, poor baby" in response to Massa's wavering allegation that he was forced out so health care reform could pass.

"This is a very sick person. He has been diagnosed with cancer -- perhaps his judgment is impaired because of of his -- the ethical issues that have as arisen, and he is no longer in the Congress," Pelosi said.

Despite a report that the House ethics committee is ending its investigation into Massa, the panel has not yet formally announced the inquiry is over and a senior source told Fox News the probe remains open for the time being.
It's the corrupt side of Nancy Pelosi that the liberal media refuses to talk about. But we've seen it most recently with Charlie Rangel, the expensive Democrat Copenhagen trips Pelosi approved (while taxpayers paid) as well as her lies on never being briefed about waterboarding. The Speaker of the House is a disgrace and it's about time conservatives do the job the liberal press refuses to do and renounce her.

Conservative Democrat Eric Massa Says He Was Forced Out Of Congress For Not Supporting ObamaCare


NYTimes.com:
Representative Eric Massa, Democrat of New York, who is resigning from Congress amid allegations that he sexually harassed a staff member, now says he believes that House Democratic leaders wanted to force him out of office because he voted against the Democrats’ health care legislation.

Mr. Massa, a freshman who represents Elmira, Corning and the suburbs of Rochester, has said that he is resigning effective 5 p.m. on Monday.

In recent days, he has given several explanations for his decision not to seek re-election and then to resign more immediately. First, he cited a recurrence of cancer. Mr. Massa, a former Navy officer, received a diagnosis of terminal lymphoma in 2001 but recovered.

Then Mr. Massa acknowledged the harassment allegation against him, admitting that he was guilty of using “salty” language in the privacy of his home and his office. He denied any further wrongdoing.

But in a local radio show on Sunday, Mr. Massa suggested that a more sinister conspiracy was under way to push him out because he had voted against the House health care legislation. “They will stop at nothing to pass this health care bill,” he said of Democratic leaders. “Now they have gotten rid of me, and it will pass.”

House Democratic leaders rejected Mr. Massa’s assertion. “That’s completely false,” said Katie Grant, a spokeswoman for the House majority leader, Representative Steny H. Hoyer, Democrat of Maryland. “There is zero merit to that accusation.”

Why shouldn't we believe Massa? Even the Left is angry at the version of ObamaCare that Barry's trying to bully through Congress. Then too is the fact that ObamaPelosiReidco. has shown plenty of times in recent weeks how much they're willing to bribe, bully and threaten their way to passing their radically-Leftist agenda. For Massa it's it's price you pay for daring to oppose The One.
