Starting with Senator Harry Reid tonight, Mark Levin explained how the libs in Congress politically profit by their blocking expanded domestic oil drilling and personally profit if taxpayers subsidize Big Wind:

Though she seemingly backtracked on labeling drilling a “hoax†this week, Pelosi refuses to consider GOP energy proposals that don’t include massive government subsidies for eco-fantastical alternatives that have never panned out… Which brings us to Madame Speaker’s 2007 financial disclosure form. Schedule III lists “assets and ‘unearned income’†of between $100,001-$250,000 from Clean Energy Fuels Corp. — Public Common Stock.â€Â
On a related note, Day by Day has discovered Pelosi’s secret 2008 reelection campaign slogan.

Gee, I would never have guessed that Peolosi was capable of using her political influence to actually create a conflict of interest. Possibly her friend, Diane Feinstein, while on a defense appropriations committee, who did a fine job of funneling military contracts into her husband’s company, tutored her. Dick Cheney has got to wonder why he ever gave up all the Halliburton stock just so he could become VP.
What ever happened to the concept that even the appearance of impropriety should be avoided? After all isn’t that the standard that is demanded from republicans or else they deserve to be investigated? Yet, if you are a democrat, that is an accepted political office perk and you only need to ask the New Orleans representative, William Jefferson, how ridiculous it is for anyone to even consider how such profitable behavior could be deemed unethical.
