House GOP to Stage Hopeless Battle Over Pelosi

Really, I don’t know how else to headline this.

House Republicans today plan to force their colleagues to vote on whether to launch an investigation of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s allegation that the CIA misled her, a move that will force Democrats to take a stand on a politically contentious issue.

ABC’s story on this is starkly funny, with Republicans openly admitting that they are simply trying to keep the issue from fading over the recess.
