Interesting viewpoint of the day from a progressive voter in San Francisco:
But Pelosi reigns as an imperial ruler who will never be faced with a serious challenge from the progressive wing of the local Democratic Party. Forget about a GOP challenger in San Francisco. It is not healthy for American democracy to allow the House Speaker to coast through every election like she does, and I hope to live to see the day when she is made to face the voters in a serious and competitive race.
This guy is a progressive living in Pelosi’s district. And even he can’t stand her and her politics of personal greed and empowerment.
Of course, he does reveal that he’s supporting Cindy Sheehan in her bid to unseat Pelosi — so that should tell you something about his mental stability and capacity for rational thought.
Bay area democrats and progressives are getting exactly the type of representation that they deserve — quit voting for the woman, or support credible and viable candidates who can defeat her. Otherwise, you’re just part of the problem that you’re whining about.
If you want a real leader in Congress, then I suggest you check out Allen West. He is running against Ron Klein, who by the way votes 98% with Pelosi. Allen is a war hero who will stop the Pelosi/Klein that is crippling America. His website is:

If you like his ideas, please donate. Lets send a message to Washington, We want real leadership and not partisian politics. We want whats best for America.
