House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that lawmakers should be able to trade stocks while in office, adding that if the law is changed, Supreme Court justices should also be subjected to a ban.

Yes. Supreme Court justices should also be subjected to a ban. I agree. Good idea, Nance.

“Now, if the impression that is given by some that somebody is doing insider trading, that's a Justice Department issue, and that has no place in any of this. But to give a blanket attitude of 'we can't do this and we can't do that because we can't be trusted,' I just don't buy into that.”

Tough titty, dummy.

Everybody else in America does buy into that.

You belong in prison.
