Did Pelosi Commit Blackmail?
Why does Nancy Pelosi go unpunished? Does she do this all the time against other people to obtain her will over their conscience to get their House vote?
The American thinker author, Bruce Walker drew his own conclusion:
This nation is starting to look like the petty partisan court of King George in 1776. This, of course, is not good for anybody in America, much less the middle class. I'm getting good and sick of Democrat blacklists.
Illegal threats -- blackmail or extortion -- make for some of the baser tools left to the dreary, heartless grandees of leftism. They cannot persuade -- indeed, men like Obama do not even dare call themselves "liberal" to America -- so they use the same sort of "persuasion" that organized crime uses. Sometimes, like with House Democrat Leader Pelosi's recent comments about Gingrich, the familiar threat of exposure or of future injury, which Pelosi has doubtless rolled out many times behind closed doors, is simply stated to the world, as if this revolting behavior were perfectly proper

So what will happen to Pelosi now? She has completed the felony -- backtracking does not undo the crime. You know what will happen as well as I do: nothing at all. The ugly blackmail and extortion racket that would make us rage against private citizens makes us yawn when leftist politicians do it. As Hannah Arendt, the famous student of totalitarianism, might have described it, what Pelosi did to Gingrich has become to us the banality of evil.
