House Speaker John Boeher is afraid to take on Rush Limbaugh over his disgusting attack on Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke.

Which has former Speaker Nancy Pelosi riled up. She talked with Greg Sargent earlier today.

In an interview with me, Nancy Pelosi considerably upped the stakes in this fight, ripping Limbaugh’s recent comments about women who use contraception as “obnoxious,” and calling on House GOP and other Republican leaders to publicly repudiate them. [...]

Pelosi said she was surprised that Republican leaders had yet to condemn the comment, but said GOPers would not be able to escape it. “They won’t disassociate themselves from it. They’re tattooed with that,” she said. “I wouldn’t want those words repeated in my office.”

The silence from the GOP leadership remains deafening.
