Nancy Pelosi is the embodiment of everything that’s wrong with politicians. Within days of the twentieth anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi travelled to China. In the past Pelosi has railed against China’s human rights violations. So why is she mum on China’s human rights abuses on this trip?

Before her trip, Pelosi — who is leading a delegation from a key energy and environment committee — declined to say whether she would press Beijing on rights ahead of the 20th anniversary of the bloody Tiananmen Square crackdown.

“The purpose of the trip is to follow up on meetings we’ve had here with the representatives of the Chinese government on the subject of climate change and energy and how that relates to our economy,” the Democratic lawmaker said.

In short, appeasing left wing enviro-nuts is more important to Speaker Pelosi than human rights. So typical.
