Nancy Pelosi's visit to Syria has met with the approval of Islamic Jihad and the terrorist from the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades who seized the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. But, to their credit, key elements of the liberal press in this country continue to be appalled by Pelosi's attempt at diplomacy with Syria. Thus, USA. Today finds that "Pelosi stepped out of bounds on [her] ill-conceived trip to Syria." USA. Today happens to disagree with the administration's policy of not talking to Syria. However, it understands that disagreement with the president is no excuse to "violate the long-held understanding that the United States should speak with one official voice abroad - even if the country is deeply divided on foreign policy back home." In other words, USA Today understands the meaning of loyal opposition in our democratic system.

106. Pam #90 - Let me guess, you listen to CNN Wolf "nazi" Blitzer, right? You don't even have to answer that. Fox channel is the "only channel" who gives BOTH sides of the story, not just the liberal side...at least they play fair. People like you can't stand fox because you don't want to hear the truth.

107. does not authorization under the logan act mean permission from the leader of our country. pelosi, sharpton,are speaker of the house-- and congressman. they are not secetary of state or ambassadors. is not their duties confined to congress and not foreign relations. i wouldn't mind going over there and adding my 2 cents worth. ican stir up just as much trouble as rev? jackson, never heard him preach; or al sharpton. did the repubs. that went over there have authorization and permission to do so?

108. Pelosi is out of control and dangerous. If there are any "men" left in the Democrat Party, for God's sake tie that woman down, she's a loose cannon and she's firing on her own ship, America.

110. Nancy, When are you and the other Democrates going to reign in Bush. I'm not suggesting not supporting the troops. Just bring them home. The money spent on this war needs to be spent on health care for our people, help for poor people
in our nation. It's funny there is never enough money for these things but we can spend billions on a WAR not helping a damn thing, not the price of gas not the people of Iraq, not our poor guys getting killed for nothing but Bush's pride, he lied about why we went to war in the first place. Why has'nt he been tried for lying to the American people?Why hasn't he been impeached? I really hope you can do something. You know I'm not some idiot, but I was raised to believe in my Country and its
leaders. But in all my 67 years this is the biggist
mess I've seen. And you know after Vietnam Most people like me thought it would,nt happen again.
We need to leave, let them fight it out them selves
We are doing more harm than good. Penny
