Nancy Pelosi: Zarqawi Death Changes Nothing

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is warning Americans not to get too excited over the death of Abu Musab al Zarqawi, saying in a statement issued by her office Thursday that it really won't do much to improve the situation in Iraq.

After briefly noting that she was "proud of our troops for their tireless work," the top House Democrat wasted no time in throwing cold water on the good news.

"[Zarqawi's] death does not alter the fact that our brave men and women in uniform are fighting a war of choice in which the President sent our troops into harm's way without a plan for victory and without leveling with the American people," she complained.

"Several hours after Zarqawi's death, 19 Iraqis were killed and 40 were wounded in a roadside bombing in Baghdad," the San Francisco Democrat noted. "These deaths are a stark reminder of the ongoing violence facing our brave men and women in uniform."

Pelosi said she still agreed with Rep. John Murtha that the U.S. should pull out of Iraq, then added: "Zarqawi's death should be a resounding call to President Bush and the Republican Congress that we must have a serious debate about U.S. policy in Iraq."

"House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is warning Americans not to get too excited over the death of Abu Musab al Zarqawi, saying in a statement issued by her office Thursday that it really won't do much to improve the situation in Iraq."

OPINION: Well Nancy, even with a face-lift your brain apparently is stuck on stupid. So here's a very simple little point you may be able to relate to.

Nancy, pretend you know everything that Zarqawi has ever said and done. Now, answer the following questions:

If Zarqawi was alive today and living next door to you how would feel?
If Zarqawi was living next door to you and then he died; how would you feel?

Wait for the fence-sitting Democrats to claim true victory for finally bringing the vast majority of our troops home

This is precisely the cynical strategy of Forbes-Kerry. It is seared...seared...in his mind that if he repeats his "advice" long enough so when the troops do begin to come home, he can claim that the Bush Administration "followed" his oh-so-sage advice.

And in a related story, the Congressional Black Caucus announced that Nancy Pelosi was the annual winner of their "roll over and play dead" award. Ms. Pelosi received a rhinestone-studded dog collar complete with matching leash, and a lifetime supply of Purina's new "Baitin' Strips" dog snacks, all courtesy of the Congressional Black Caucus. The award was hand-delivered by Louisiana Congressman "Bill the Chill" Jefferson, who said he had been keeping the "Baitin' Strips" stored away in his freezer for just this special occasion.

When asked for a comment, Ms. Pelosi's office demurred.

Apologies to Jimmy Van Heusen, Phil Silvers, and of course, Frank and Nancy Sinatra...

At least three times a day, I hear her
The media whores are always near her
Can't we find someone to replace
Nancy, with the ghastly face?
She claims that winter will become summer
If we don't drive hybrids and ditch our hummers
Picture a botox-ed disgrace
That's Nancy with the ghastly face
Did you ever see someone stomp kittens?
Well, she'll give you that very same low
When she shrieks it makes worse, all that spinning
Just hear her say "big oil"
She's no Kucinich , or Lahey the "Leaker"
Sorry for us, she may be "Speaker"
A danger to the human race
Nancy, with the ghastly face

If Zarqawi was alive today and living next door to you how would feel?

Hot and bothered.

It's amazing that these people are like "killing the most active terrorist on the planet does nothing to help the War On Terror", but at the same time they go into year long orgasms when Bush's Vice President's Assistant for National Security Affairs is forced to resign.

You'd think when her plastic surgeon placed her eyebrows in the middle of her forehead that it would have stretched the rest of her skin tight too, but it didn't. She looks like a real skank. If I ever decide to have plastic surgery, remind me not to go to him.

The woman is certifiable, she's nuts. How she got in the House of Represetives is a fluke...

She hails from the Land of Nuts & Flakes, elected by the Daily Kos/DU crowd who hate everything in this entire universe so much that they all should just go ahead and join the Jihad Cause. I certainly have no use for them here...

[jazusamo]

Pelosi, Murtha, Reid and alot of other Dems are taking the position that absolutely nothing good can happen as long as the Bush Administration runs our government. Many people are getting fed up with negative stance on everything. It's going to cost them, IMO.

Nancy Pelosi: Zarqawi Death Changes Nothing

yeah, right Nancy. i'll be when you heard the news you had to change your shorts.

[Question Liberal Authority]

I'm not a public relations expert and I don't play one on tv.

But I would have thought that a blind, brain dead baboon on crack would have known enough to give a gruding "we support the troops who brought this terrorist to justice" type statement.

Heck. Even JOHN KERRY knew enough to do that.

"killing the most active terrorist on the planet does nothing to help the War On Terror"

LOL! I am going to use that one!

[KellyAdmirer]

I wonder what would change things for the better in her diseased mind - other than cutting and running wherever US forces are actually fighting our enemies. Certainly it would have nothing to do with progress in the war on terrorism, since that seems to make her so unhappy.

Yo.... Nancy! You fugly b!tch!

[Cementjungle]

At my poker game this evening, even the non-political ones are horrified at the Libs and Dems reactions to this

That's encouraging. I'm not going to hold my breath though waiting for my sister (lives in Cambridge, MA) and my rabid mother-in-law (Los Angeles) to "get it". Some dems are too far gone to ever see the light.

[umgud]

Yo Nancy......... We found lots of good intel when we bombed this bum. We also raided 17 of his cohorts locations the same day and I presume between these two events, we can roll up not just the head of the snake, but alos a lot of his infrastructure. Trust me, this will change a lot fairly soon.

Me thinks yur full of crap Nancy.

"[Zarqawi's] death does not alter the fact that our brave men and women in uniform are fighting a war of choice in which the President sent our troops into harm's way without a plan for victory and without leveling with the American people," she complained.

This is truly amazing that she someone can create one single sentence that so perfectly refutes itself. What an amazingly stupid thing to say!

She like an S.F. version of the Iraqi information minister.
