Yeah, hold him just like *that*, Madame Speaker.

Do I even need to bother with the scorn, this time?
Pelosi Rebukes Fellow Democrat
By ERICA WERNER – 1 day agoWASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rebuked a fellow San Francisco Bay-area liberal Friday for what she said were "inappropriate" comments about Iraq during a congressional debate.
During a debate on children's health care Thursday, Rep. Pete Stark accused Republicans of sending troops to Iraq to "get their heads blown off for the president's amusement."
...
"While members of Congress are passionate about their views, what Congressman Stark said during the debate was inappropriate and distracted from the seriousness of the subject at hand — providing health care for America's children," Pelosi said.
No, I don't think that I need to bother. After all... The AP. The San Francisco Chronicle. Don Surber. Power Line. Glenn Reynolds. Heck, even the freaking Democratic Underground. We all know what this says about the netroots*. Some of the above don't like knowing, but we all know. A sad thing, in its way, when a political faction can't even be effectual enough to be really worth condemning.
I wonder what we shall do tomorrow?

*I bet that the New York Times knows, too - even if they haven't said anything on the topic as of yet.
