Pelosi Endorses Investigative Wall Street Commission

Maybe Congress is getting just a wee bit of a non-partisan message. House Speaker Pelosi is calling for an investigative commission on Wall Street irregularities (I thought it was business as usual!), due to Populist outrage (Congress hears the people?):

Pelosi, speaking to the Commonwealth Club of California, said she wants the panel to be modeled after the Pecora Commission, a bipartisan investigative body established by the U.S. Senate in 1932 to examine the causes and abuses of the Wall Street crash of 1929 and to prevent a repeat.
