MTV reality star Chet Cannon called House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi a ‘special breed of idiot’ after she said Monday Democrats treated President Bush better than Republicans treat President Obama.

“Pelosi says Dems never treated Bush the way GOP treats Obama,” tweeted the “Real World” star. “It takes a special breed of idiot to make a statement like that.”

Pelosi made the remark in an interview with MSNBC’s Ronan Farrow. Asked whether Democrats are at all responsible for the gridlock in Washington, Pelosi said, “No, I don’t.”

“Let me just say that any of this equivalence of both sides, this or that, no. We never treated President Bush the way they treat President Obama,” she said. “It’s no use whining about it, we just have to get people out to vote.” (RELATED: Pelosi: Democrats Bear No Blame For Do-Nothing Congress)
