I’ve lost track of the number of times the Democrats have criticized
Bush – rightly so in many cases – for being stubborn, ignoring the
facts, denying reality, and so forth. Pelosi seems determined to show
that these descriptions are as apt for her – and those she speaks for –
as they are for the President.
>From the New York Times:
On the ABC News program "This Week," Ms. Pelosi was asked the tough
question at the core of the debate over the Armenian Genocide Act:
What if forcing a vote on the resolution were to endanger the security
of American troops in Iraq?
"Some of the things that are harmful to our troops relate to values –
Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo, torture," said Ms. Pelosi, whose San Francisco
district includes thousands of Armenian-Americans. "Our troops are
well-served when we declare who we are as a country and increase the
respect people have for us as a nation."
Is this what Pelosi and some other Democrats mean when they say they
support our troops? Do they believe that our soldiers and marines are
better served by declaring "who we are as a country" and "increasing
the respect people have for us as a nation" than by not creating
needless potential obstacles to the withdrawal they so strongly
wish for?
I am thoroughly, absolutely disgusted.
