Pelosi Credits Iran for Progress in Iraq
Even now, Nancy Pelosi steadfastly refuses to acknowledge the success of the surge. Yet the improved situation in Iraq is undeniable. Pelousy skillfully bypasses this fact by crediting not the American troops fighting to preserve democracy or even pro-democracy forces in Iraq, but Iran, the major backer of the terrorists they've been fighting.
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 didn't happen. Whatever the military success, and progress that may have been made, the surge didn't 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 transcription comes via Abe Greenwald, who comments:
This is an inexcusable slander. Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki brought the Sadrists militias to their knees in a month-long battle that enabled Iraq's largest Sunni bloc to rejoin the government. Furthermore, when Pelosi met with Prime Minister al-Maliki in Mosul she sang quite a different tune. She had "welcomed Iraq's progress in passing a budget as well as oil legislation, and a bill paving the way for the provincial elections in the fall that are expected to more equitably redistribute power among local officials," and stated, "We're assured the elections will happen here, they will be transparent, they will be inclusive and they will take Iraq closer to the reconciliation we all want it to have."
Discounting the success of the American military, denying the accomplishments of U.S. allies, and giving the credit to our most dangerous enemies seems like an especially productive week for a Democrat on Capitol Hill. After Nancy Pelosi's post-Iraq hat trick, there's really no need for Barack Obama to make this trip after all.
Let's hope Mad Mahmoud Ahmadinejad appreciates her propaganda efforts on Iran's behalf. He will most certainly owe our whole country thanks if we let Democrats retake the White House, paving the way for Pelousy et al. to advance a foreign policy that puts the Iranian terror state's interests ahead of our own.

This is what we get when we have a Speaker of the House who hails from the land of fruits and nuts.

If only Nancy PolPotLucy understood international statesmanship as well as she understands congressional meal planning.
Heck, even Code Pink has given up on bothering with her since Code Pink sees how Lame Duck she is in her Speaker's position.
Let us hope she never has to assume the true power from the line of succession.

One more thought - I am assuming that PolPotLucy will be sending Armidigitmonkey a 'green' bunt cake as a thank you. Actually, a fruit cake would be more appropriate.

I can think of a better use for her babushka. Nice and tight too.

I wish someone would just smack the crap out of her! I'd be laughing for months!
