Well check this shit out sports fans:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic Rep. Alcee Hastings of Florida, impeached as a federal judge in 1989 on corruption charges, dropped his bid under pressure on Tuesday to chair a congressional panel designed to help protect America’s security, a party aide said.

Hastings took the action after being told by Rep. Nancy Pelosi, in line to head the U.S. House of Representatives when the new Congress convenes in January, that she would not give him the coveted job, the aide said.

Did Nancy think we’d forget her statement: “[Democrats] intend to lead the most honest, the most open and the most ethical Congress in history”, and not hold her to it?

:noway: Now, Now Nancy — we have long memories.
