When the lights went out in Congress

Pelosi has betrayed the American public. She took her leadership role promising openness and bipartisanship.

But when Congress was ready to debate making the US more energy independent, she turned the lights out and walked away. Literally.

Thanks to Texas Cong. John Culberson and other pro-American leaders, they took to the floor and continued to fight for more energy independence. They took a stand and drew a line in the sand.

Since when do we as voters allow leaders to turn the lights off, turn off the mikes, and walk away from a policy debate we desperately need to have? Evidentally, since Pelosi too control.

Here is one blogger's interesting take on the "cut and run" Democrats' ploys:

Maybe we have this all wrong...Nancy Pelosi wasn't trying to be rude by shutting off the lights; she was just displaying her answer to the energy crisis!

(If this were winter, she'd turn off the heat and tell the Republicans to put on a cardigan sweater, too...)
