September 3, 2013 12:34 PM Pelosi Huddles with 5-Year-Old Grandson on Syria By Andrew Johnson

Nancy Pelosi told reporters today she consulted her five-year-old grandson over the weekend about whether or not to support intervention in Syria.

The minority leader explained that when she was home this past weekend, her five-year-old consigliere pressed her, “Are you ‘yes’ war with Syria, ‘no’ war with Syria?,” and said he opposed intervention. She took issue with his use of “war” to describe what she considers an “action,” but told him she generally agreed, but favored intervention because “they’ve killed hundreds of children there.”

The youngster then asked her if the children were in the United States. Pelosi explained the victims were children abroad, but praised his “wisdom” in attending to American interests. She explained to reporters, however, that she found her grandson’s reasoning wanting because the use of chemical weapons “affects our interests because, again, it was outside of the circle of civilized behavior.”

“It was humanity drew a line decades ago that I think if we ignore, we do so to the peril of many other people who can suffer,” she said. She didn’t reveal whether she had convinced her youthful counselor to change his mind.

Did she have the kid get on all fours and put a printout of Obamacare on his back, and ask him how it feels?

Pelosi huddles with 5-Year-Old grandson while boehner huddles with his 12-Year-Old......these two Third-in-Line left wing democrats show their professional tactics.

Actually, they are cold-bloodedly professional. They are working the soccer mom approval vote, and they need memes that those brain-dead codependent soul-slaves can "bring home at the end of the day to be on the same page."

Look up neurolinguistic programming and brain fluoridation through antidepressants... and weep.

Did he ask “Granny are you going to go to Syria again to shake hands with Mr Assad and bring me back a t-shirt?”

It should be heartwarming for Pelosi’s constituents to know that the opinion of her 5 year old grandson outweighs the opinions of the taxpayers who pay her salary.

Yeah, Pelosi, how about consulting with my 22 and 24-year-old grandsons. You would get a different answer from those who are old enough to serve. I call her Gracie! (Allen!)
