The most powerful female Democrat on Capitol Hill has
turned her back on women. Again. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, entrenched
13-term incumbent, refuses to say whether creepster San Diego Mayor Bob Filner
should resign amid an avalanche of longstanding sexual harassment allegations,
staff resignations and now a lawsuit.
"What goes on in San Diego is up to the people of
San Diego. I'm not here to make any judgments," declared the very same
feminist crusader who has spearheaded unabashedly judgmental nationwide attacks
on the so-called "Republican War on Women."
Democrat Filner's former spokeswoman revealed Monday that
he ordered her to "work without her panties on" and viewed women
"as sexual objects or stupid idiots." Other women alleged that
Democrat Filner groped, forcibly kissed and harassed them. His own fiancee
broke up with him two weeks ago after taking stock of his
"abusiveness" and "disrespect" for women. Filner
"apologized" and admitted, "I need help," but he refuses to
step down.
The sheriff's office has set up a Bob Filner Abuse
Hotline, and the mayor is now forbidden from meeting with women behind closed
doors. At least one legal expert believes some of the claims rise to the level
of sexual assault.
Instead of anger toward her misogynistic Democratic
colleague, Pelosi got all hot and bothered at a journalist who asked her last
week about the former 10-term California congressman -- with whom she
co-founded the Congressional Progressive Caucus, by the way. "Don't
identify him as my former colleague," Pelosi snippy-snapped.
Okey-dokey. Let's just refer to boorish Bob Filner as the
latest beneficiary of Pelosi's Democratic Male Perv Protection Racket. When it
comes to holding scandal-plagued predatory liberal men accountable for their
scummy behavior, See No Evil Nancy's pattern of malign neglect is unrivaled.
In a New York non-shocker of the year, another of
Pelosi's former colleagues, Anthony Weiner, is embroiled in a new sex
controversy. Weiner admitted Tuesday that transcripts of lewd sex chats between
him and a 22-year-old woman in 2011 -- leaked on a gossip site called "The
Dirty" -- are real. His apparent nom de sext: "Carlos Danger."
Vocal Democratic women were nowhere to be found. No
surprise. Remember: When the original Weiner nude Twitter selfie scandal broke,
Pelosi and her femme-a-gogue twin Debbie Wasserman Schultz dragged their
Beltway heels as long as possible. Not until Weiner's interactions with an
underage girl in Delaware were exposed by conservative bloggers and confirmed
by police did the women call for him to resign.
Pelosi's soft-on-Dem skeeviness policy extended to Oregon
Democrat Rep. David Wu, as well. While local Oregon activists and journalists
exposed the sicko's bizarre behavior for months in 2011, Pelosi looked the
other way at her former colleague's vulgar antics. The seven-term liberal
congressman made national headlines after his own mortified staff revolted
against their Tigger costume-wearing, drunk-texting boss.
Wu's closest advisers demanded that he seek treatment.
But House Democrats (who had poured some $80,000 into Wu's re-election coffers)
remained silent and took no action. As I noted at the time, Wu's sexually
aggressive, alcohol-addled and erratic outbursts stretched over decades. He
admitted in 2004 that he engaged in "inexcusable behavior" as a 1970s
undergrad at Stanford University, where school officials disciplined him after
his ex-girlfriend told campus police he attempted to rape her and stifle her
screams with a pillow after a breakup.
Only after The Oregonian newspaper published allegations
by a teenage girl who had complained for months to apathetic Capitol Hill
offices of an "unwanted sexual encounter" with Wu did Nancy
"Drain the Swamp" Pelosi call for an investigation by the House
ethics committee.
In a demonstration of equal-opportunity callousness,
Pelosi showed the same disregard for male victims of a Democratic lecher.
Pelosi's office was told in October 2009 by the chief of staff of predatory
former colleague Rep. Eric Massa, D-N.Y., that the congressman had sexually
harassed several young male staffers. Massa's former deputy chief of staff and
legislative director also contacted leading Democrats on the House ethics
committee. Former House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer also knew of the freaky
habits of the married Massa.
True to form, Pelosi and the creep enablers did nothing
for five months -- until after Massa resigned in March 2010. A House ethics
inquiry into the sexual harassment scandal has gone where most House ethics
inquiries go: nowhere.
Whether she's carrying a gavel or just carrying water,
Pelosi has served as a loyal apologist and abettor of the Democratic Bad Boys
Club. What exactly will it take before voters finally turn this perv protector
into a "former colleague"?
