It seems that Nancy Pelosi has become a muse to Mike Huckabee; Huckabee has been inspired to write an ode to the House Speaker's ruthless politicking titled Fancy Nancy.

In answer to the growing controversy around Nancy Pelosi and her knowledge of CIA torture techniques under the Bush administration, one-time presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has demanded her resignation, with a poem.

Huckabee posted the creative and satirical 24 line Fancy Nancy poem on his personal blog May 17, 2009.

Here's a story about a lady named Nancy
A ruthless politician, but dressed very fancy
Very ambitious, she got herself elected Speaker
But as for keeping secrets, she proved quite a "leaker."

She flies on government planes coast to coast
And doesn't mind that our economy is toast
She makes the Air Force squire her in their military jets
There's room for her family, her staff, and even her pets.

Until now, she annoyed us, but her gaffes were mostly funny;
Even though it was painful to watch her waste our tax money.
But now her wacky comments are no laughing matter;
She's either unwilling to tell the truth, or she's mad as a hatter!

She sat in briefings and knew about enhanced interrogation;
But claims she wasn't there, and can't give an explanation.
She disparages the CIA and says they are a bunch of liars;
Even the press aren't buying it and they're stoking their fires.

I think Speaker Pelosi has done too much speaking;
And instead of her trashing our intelligence officials, it's her nose that needs tweaking.

If forced to believe whether the CIA and her colleagues in Congress are lying;
Or it's Speaker Pelosi whose credibility and career is dying.
I believe in the integrity of the men and women who sacrifice to keep us safe;
Not the woman who has been caught flat-footed, lying to our face.

I say it here and I say it rather clear-
It's time for Nancy Pelosi to resign and get out of here.

Well done. I wonder if she will survive this serious breech of confidence.

tikun,  she would have been ok, had she not changed her story several times.  Her press conference last week, where she all but accused the CIA of lieing, was very telling.  It even brought out Obama appointee Leon Panetta, Director of the CIA to stand up for the CIA.   Panetta was also Clintons White House Chief of Staff.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_Panetta.

I saw the video it was embarrassing. She should pull the plug and run or rather fly home in her government provided 747. Gore must be proud of her.

I must say after meeting Mike Huckabee for the first time, I was somewhat shocked at what a great down to earth guy he was. Although his fans and followers tend to be a bit on the extereme side it was still an honor to hear him speak on family values. He seams like a great guy and proved to be a great speaker.
