and Republicans bitch about Nancy Pelosi

Again, we have to have comedians point out truth. Last night it was Jimmy Kimmel's turn.

“This story, for some reason, is not a big story,”
“From 1999 to 2007, he was Speaker of the House. During which time, he called on lawmakers to ‘put repeat child molesters in a jail for the rest of their lives.’ Today, he got 15 months for that.”
“60 people wrote letters to the judge on Dennis Hastert’s behalf to help reduce his sentence.”
“Jared from Subway right now is going, ‘Why the hell didn’t I run for Speaker of the House?'”
