It seems to me that many, many people out there owe Speaker Pelosi an apology. Conservatives all over the country were calling for Pelosi's head on a platter when she dared pay a diplomatic visit to Syria last month and yet those same loudmouths are conspicuously silent now that their princess Condi is doing the same. Not only that, but what the media haven't been so quick to report is that Pelosi's visit was preceded by not one, but THREE Republican congressman, all of whom also met with Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad last month.
So, if Pelosi's trip "undermine[d] the Bush administration's foreign policy," perhaps the White House wants to tell us about all the damage done by the Republicans' visits?
It's not so much the vile, predictable hypocrisy that bothers me as it is the blatant disrespect hurtled shamelessly at Pelosi for daring to think like a thinker instead of a politician.
