Wartime presidents have always been the target of criticism from their political opponents, especially in election years. But many observers say the level of invective lobbed at President Bush has escalated to a new and dangerous level.

Mrs. Pelosi said on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday that she made her comments "with great reluctance," but it took "great courage" to utter this "cry for help for the troops."

Hey Ms. Botox ... shall we ask the Troops what they think of "your great courage"?

The fact is the current Dems are the most leftist/socialist pols in our nation's history. Therefore you can expect any kind of lies or fabrications out of them epitomized by the foaming-at-the-mouth, red-faced ranting, vein-popping speeches given by Al Gore of late. Power is their goal, and no lie or half-truth is beyond them.
