There's no shortage of bad news for the Defense Department's problem-plagued security clearance program.

Wed, 24 May 2006 14:00:00 EST Kudos for Nancy Pelosi

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi deserves praise for depoliticizing the House ethics process. Yesterday Pelosi called for an ethics committee investigation of her Democratic colleague Rep. William Jefferson of Louisiana, who has been accused of taking bribes. Some Republicans will be inclined to dismiss this on the grounds that she had little choice–that it was an easy call. That's probably right. But I think it should be considered in light of the fact that after Alan Mollohan stepped down as ranking Democrat on the ethics committee—a move that Pelosi or other Democratic leaders may well have urged on him—Pelosi replaced him with her California colleague Howard Berman. Berman has served in that usually thankless position before. In my judgment, Berman is an absolute straight shooter who can be counted on to decide ethics issues on the facts and the rules, without regard to partisan fallout.
