HOUSE SPEAKER Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) offered an excellent demonstration yesterday of why members of Congress should not attempt to supplant the secretary of state when traveling abroad...

Pelosi said she had come to Syria "determined that the road to Damascus would be the path to peace." How nice. Too bad Syria is about as interested in peace with Israel as Pelosi is interested in peace with George W. Bush.
:) Thanks for the link!
Well, well, well.
I might just go out and buy a paper today....
Note to the WP: You get what you vote for :)
Pigs flying... hell frozen over...I’m stunned, confused and amazed!! Keep hope alive, at least the Washington Post editorial staff actually CAN read the Constitution... when they want too.
Not that they care much about George Bush but I’m sure they don’t want THIS woman upstaging THAT woman. Especially since they know THAT woman will be President and more importantly they wouldn’t want any Republican leaders getting the idea THEY can run their own foreign policy with a Democrat in the Oval Office. snicker, snicker
“Completely agree with this editorial: Speaker Pelosi seems to suffer from delusions of adequacy. She really should concentrate on doing her new job well and leave the foreign policy to the professionals. It seems that when the Democrats seize power, no matter how marginal, they have an irresistible impulse to embrace America’s enemies. Nancy’s old enough to know better.”
Good morning and Ping!
“the road to police lies thorugh Damascus”
Good grief...not only ridiculous but talk about delusions of grandeur. What’s next sticks into snakes?
Tom's hungary to be the next shuttle diplomat with an accent.

The Post left off that it's likely illegal as well.

We have found much to criticize in Mr. Bush's military strategy and regional diplomacy. But Ms. Pelosi's attempt to establish a shadow presidency is not only counterproductive, it is foolish.
And, I believe, illegal as well.
Agreed. They’ve at least been far more rational than the NY Times.
You will get no argument from me on that subject. The nineteenth amendment has IMHO done more to diminish the power authority and rights of women than anything else I can think of. The result is to send many barking up the power tree in search of who knows what.
When you have to have a government promise to secure what you had in spades, by virtue of virtue and your sex, you have failed to see the difference between God given rights, and the hopelessly weak and potentially easily lost or changed man made legalities that are or may be, not worth the time effort or paper on which they are printed.
An example of all this might be Roe v Wade which has made women and men, slaves to an ideology that will ultimately result in the destruction of our civilization, if not changed. I’m quite sure one of the talking points of the movers and shakers of woman’s suffrage, was the slavery to the husband, or man issue. What little the understanding.
Nancy the Ninny!
Exactly what I was thinking. I hear Chloral Hydrate has made a comeback. Maybe she can be kept quiet until the next election. I'm joking....
She knows how to tie a babushka, though.
No surprise. They don’t want the precedent set for the next Democrat president with a Republican Congress.
Here we see Nancy the Ninny, with Mr. Assad a corrupt thug that orchestrated the murder of former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq al-Hariri
