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.

and very courageous of you to notice.

You make good points. Thanks.

What is it with Pelosi and Gorelick and the eyebrows?
Eyebrows are not normally three inches from the eyeballs, are they?
Is this caused by excessive plastic surgery, or what?

Sorry for all the questions. Inquiring minds, etc.

the DUers are giving the pelosi deacle "a good leaving
alone". just not a popular thread. the big nancys.

The insurgents can't complain that their sacred mosques(armories) and holy cities(armed camps)are being contaminated by infidels when the New Iraqi army moves in. And when the goons find them selves captured they will wish the captors would resort to putting panties over their heads.

Can you give me more detail - I never go to the DU site.

This may be a symptom of prolonged depression

ROFL!

nancy is brave. russert is a meanie, and a republican
shill. everything she said was right. just a bunch of
kumbaya, vaguely gay blather. I'm sure you can imagine.

but what I noticed was that the thread was around 15
responses long, whereas, for example, the umpteen zillionth
"Clark vs Edwards for VP" thread is 120. these guys are
just soooooooooo amusing.

No, lady - you'd show 'Great Courage' if you'd jump off the top of the Chrysler Building.

Short of that, you'd show 'Great Wisdom' in keeping your idiotic liberal pie-hole shut.

Freakin' HagHound from Hell.

Remember that cult in San Diego .. the leader of that group had the very same open-eyed stare .. it was eerie!

Or put another way, as tragic as combat losses are for the friends and families of those killed (and for all of us really), for combat deaths in the Iraq war to equal those in WW2, they would have to continue at their current rate for another 850 years.

[CyberAnt]

Well .. thanks for the in-depth, but I don't think they're amusing .. I think they're just plain nuts.

I believe Nancy Pelosi is an ENEMY COMBATANT that signaled for an Al Queda (sp?) attack with her tears during the show. They need to pick her up an place her in GITMO or some other top secret holding facility.

Nancy Pelosi is a disgrace to the American People and a major danger to our hard fighting American Troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. She is a clearly an ENEMY of the POTUS and our American Fighting HEROES.

Disgrace is an understatement. I wanted to throw up when I saw her at the WWII dedication. If she were a politician during WWII, she would have let Nazi(as in the German National Socialist Movement) run all over us and come up with some pathetic excuse...
Disgusting hunk of plastic...
