When asked about her own lobbyist funded trips, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-CA, usually dodges the question and tries to point the finger of blame back toward Republican Tom DeLay.

"It is not an issue of members of our Caucus having the same sort of a problem. Make no mistake - there is a drastic difference between the timing of reporting things and ethical behavior."

Way back in May, Grant Swank even pointed out just how huffy she got when pressed by George Snufalufagus:

In her exchange with George Stephanopoulos, Pelosi practically shouted at the man with: "Do not fall into a Republican trap of equating technicalities on reporting, timing of reporting with not upholding an ethical standard of the House."

Her lack of making sense plus her dramatic verbalizations brought, at one point, a slight smile to Stephanopoulos' face.

But look who took advantage of the Independence Day weekend to try to sneak her delinquent travel reports by the media.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) filed delinquent reports Friday for three trips she accepted from outside sponsors that were worth $8,580 and occurred as long as seven years ago, according to copies of the documents.

The Post notes that her unreported trips were financed by NBC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, and mostly by the Chinese National Association of Industry and Commerce.
