LaRouche Says Nancy Pelosi Should Be Thrown Out

Sept. 12, 2008 (LPAC)--House Speaker Nancy Pelosi should be thrown out of the leadership of the House of Representatives for her immoral role in the attacks against Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY), the first Black Congressman to hold the chairmanship of the House Ways and Means Committee, Lyndon LaRouche said today.

“Pelosi should be thrown out,” said LaRouche. “Her behavior in the Rangel case is typical of the immorality that she has exhibited as House Speaker. As a result of her policies, Democrats will face massive defeat in the 2008 Congressional elections; she should be thrown out before it gets even worse.”

Rep. Rangel has been targeted by the media empire of fascist Rupert Murdoch, and Republicans in Congress, but well-informed sources report that the Republicans couldn't get away with their attacks if it were not for the knowledge that Nancy Pelosi and her leadership gang want Rangel either out, or brought into line with Wall Street policies.

Today the Atlanta Journal-Constitution editorial board weighed in with a lead editorial entitled, “Rangel should step down pending review,” calling for Rangel to be ousted as chairman of the Ways and Means Committee. “House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her leadership should insist that U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel give up the chair of the House Ways and Means Committee ... while colleagues get to the bottom of Rangel's ethics problems,” the signed editorial says.

LaRouche said that the Atlanta Journal Constitution itself should be suspended “pending review” of its ethics.
