The Pelosi Doctrine, as demonstrated during the tour, is the opposite of the Bush Doctrine spelled out in 2002.

Also known as the French Doctrine or white flag doctrine.

The dems are power hunger for sure!

This is just another example of the Dems generally and Pelosi specificaly trying to completly take over control of the government without having to win the whitehouse. Both groups are trying to establish power on their own terms, and regardless of the effect on American national security.

Olmert never authorized her to say any such thing.

She seems to be taking the title of “Speaker” to the extreme, thinking she not only speaks for her district, but for the whole country. And not only for the whole US, she speaks for any other country she decides to represent.

The US needs Nancy Pelosi as a diplomat like a fish needs a bicycle, because apparently women’s rights take a back seat to flipping off the White House….

It is time to play some “hardball” in the other direction. She obviously violated the Logan act and she should be brought up on charges.

she is dumber than box of rocks.

Not even my Pet Rock is that dumb!

Her two safe harbors could be:

1) She was interceding on behalf of one or more US citizens who had some personal beef with the Syrian government. She has not thus far attempted to advance this theory.

2) She was not in opposition to the enunciated Bush Syria policy.

But she screwed up bigtime by saying that she relayed part of a conversation with Olmert. At that point, she couldn’t possibly have been just telling Assad the Lesser the exact Bush position. Instead, she was explicitly pretending to speak for Israel!

What matters is the seriousness of the charge and the ferocity with which it is prosecuted. What matters is how effectively you can use the charge as the instrument for embedding an emotional bias against your adversary.

Rational argument is a largely ineffective means of refuting an emotional bias. Usually an emotional attack requires another emotional appeal to refute it. The left understands this. That’s why so often they win and we lose.

Maybe it’s time to choose whether to use Pelosi’s own rules against her, or just bend over and grab our ankles from here on out.

Of all the disappointments of the past few years, this and Harriet Myers are probably the most disheartening.

Dubya is asleep at the switch. He doesn’t seem to understand the Dhimmy’s want the U.S. to lose and aren’t afraid to break any amount of laws to make sure that happens. I wish he would listen to the Blogosphere and take some kind of action against the Fifth Column which is in this country.

I fear this little VayCay to the Middle East is just the beginning of her shananagins.

Such an insult to all those rocks inhabiting boxes..

The Republicans should draft a Non-Binding Resolution that tells Pelosi to get out of the Middle East in the next 120 hours.

Yeh! That’s the ticket.

I never get tired of that phrase. Especially when it fits.

If we are lucky, maybe some of them will resist arrest be given the baton treatment (the preverbial “wooden shampoo”).

Not being a ‘Legal Beagle” myself, it appears to be a useless law on the books.

Still, that doesn’t change the fact of Pelosi setting up her own shadow presidency and undermining the administration during war.

Statements made by Israel and Syria both show her to be a fool who hasn’t a clue about Diplomacy or anything else.

Only the left would think her unconstitutional act appropriate or useful. All she did was continue emboldening the enemies of the U.S.

I know that isn’t an apple to apple comparison because we are the good guys and it would be morally correct for a person to break from terrorism and for us to support him. In both cases the host government looks weak. She makes us look weak, not reasonable. They are the enemy and are not interested in finding common ground, their sole goal is to subjugate our society to theirs. And Pelosi has become their ally in that quest.
