House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Sunday that it took "great courage" for her to bash President Bush two weeks ago as "an incompetent leader . . . who has no judgment, no experience and no knowledge of the subjects that he has to decide upon" - explaining that she leveled the incendiary criticism to help U.S. troops in Iraq.

"I made the statement that I did - and I think with great courage, if I might say about myself - because I am worried about the troops on the ground in Iraq," Pelosi told "Meet the Press."

"Believe me, I said this for the troops. I said this for the troops. [It was] a cry for help for the troops," she insisted.

I bravely put it to you that Pelosi is a dried up old bag.

Be more specific. The troops for which side?

"no experience"

She must have missed the part on President Bush's resume about being governor of Texas.

She suggested that the best way to help the troops was to defeat President Bush in November

I'm sure that the troops will vote for Kerry in November based on "Nervous" Nancy's spiel. /sarcasm

At first I thought it PMS. Then I thougtht she is too old for that. The only other reason is because of lack of sleep since she cannot shut her eyelids. Someone please send her a sleep mask, which would serve two purposes. If something is not done, we are going to have to call the boys in the white coats. That is, after they take care of Alpha Gore.

This looney broad's idea of courage is merging into freeway traffic at rush hour. The fact that she can hold elected public office is an excellent example of the downside of democracy.

How did this woman ever get elected to anything? Has she no idea how pathetic it sounds for a politician to praise her own supposed "great courage" in so many words?

Why should we want her censured? Isn't it better if she continues to reveal just what a nutcase she is?

The seeming appearance of courage and just plain stupidity, often look exactly the same to the disinterested observer.

Flying into a berserker rage, with the adrenalin kicking in all injectors simultaneously, also insures that the individual so affected feels little or no pain, has superhuman strength, and absolutely zero judgment. This is the best way to evaluate the Nancy Pelosi meltdown performance - like a shrew on speed.

Some may admire Nancy for being so fearless. But believe me, folks, the display was simply a chemically driven visceral response. No brain activity was ever present.

She definitely showed 'great courage' going back to the same incompetent plastic surgeon time after time after time....

"I have a responsibility to the troops," Pelosi claimed. "We owe them at least a fair fight when they go into battle for us."

I'd love to see the troops show her what they think of her on a live program and see her weasel out of that one and apologize for assuming she knows what the hell she is talking about.

I didn't watch. But I'm sure it was a difficult, heart-wrenching experience for her. (sniff, sniff, BARF!)
