In an interview yesterday with the San Francisco Chronicle, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi claimed the U.S. troop surge failed to accomplish its goal. She then partially credited the success of the troop surge to the goodwill of the Iranians, claiming that they were responsible for ending violence in the southern city of Basra.
Asked if she saw any evidence of the surges positive impact on her May 17 trip to Iraq she responded:
Well, the purpose of the surge was to provide a secure space, a time for the political change to occur to accomplish the reconciliation. That didnt happen. Whatever the military success, and progress that may have been made, the surge didnt accomplish its goal. And some of the success of the surge is that the goodwill of the Iranians-they decided in Basra when the fighting would end, they negotiated that cessation of hostilities-the Iranians.
This is an inexcusable slander.

Problem is enough Americans will not vote sufficient numbers of Republicans into the HR to get rid of her once and for all.
This broad is the stupidest bastard I’ve ever seen.
God help us when the idiot voters increase her majority control of the house this fall.
Please forgive me for my “earthy” talk but it’s just incredible an idiot like this can lead the house. This fool is going to get people killed.
Vera velocity cheeks meets ferret face.
I’ve never been suspended from FR.
This one is really pushing the envelope of my restraint.
Very good idea. Someone in the MSM should ask if she’s willing...
And will the bush administration pound on this or “reach across the aisle?”
We already know the answer.
Exactly what I’d expect of a Traitor.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again.... There are 26 million American Proud Veterans that are trained, mostly armed, and ready to defend our country....
Bring it on...!

Nancy needs to go. Liberals are the true bottom feeders of America. They are the absolute worse America has to offer. Lets give them the boot in November.
Yeah. And, oddly enough, that "decision" just happened to coincide with the influx of US Marines bringing a big ol' can of Whoop Ass to bear.
She cannot drag me to wrong side of history unless I let her.
I keep believing surge is working, she can deny until she is blue in the face, will not change facts.
Remember always these folks believe in feelings, facts have no place in their thinking.
We however deal with facts, and feelings do not change facts
What were the original political milestones set out at the beginning of the surge and how many of them have been met?
Madam Speaker, it is time for your meds.
Run her out of Washington on a rail, tarred and feathered.
I agree. She should be condemned in the strongest language possible by Republican leadership.
As sad as it is my friend, I fear you are wasting your breath here. There are too many at FR who, no matter how much evidence there is to the contrary, wholeheartedly believe letting the DhimmiKKKrats win the presidency will actually be GOOD for us...
I really, really, really hope that those who support the idea of a Barack Obama leading our country so people see the "incompetency" of a liberal administration and vote more conservative in the future does not, in turn, end up dissolving this beloved nation of ours into a cesspool from whence we shall never recover...

Here here! Nancy The Idiot has said and done a lot of stupid things since becoming SOTH, but this is downright treasonous! Why doesn't she fly over to Tehran and kiss Ahmedinejad's ass?
She comes from a political family - her father was a congressman and a brother was mayor of Baltimore (may have the relations wrong wrt the positions, but something like that). And yes she married into money.
