Saturday, Nov. 19, 2005 10:54 a.m. EST Nancy Pelosi: Pro-Troop Vote 'a Disgrace'

Anti-war House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is blasting last night's 403 to 3 House vote in support of U.S. troops and their mission in Iraq, calling it "a disgrace."

Complaining that House Republicans had engaged in a "deception" by calling for a last minute vote on the Iraq war, the San Francisco Democrat said the pro-troop resolution was "a disservice to our country."

Pelosi said that the "Republican majority has stooped to a new low" by forcing Democrats to go on the record against an immediate pullout.

Her California colleague, House Armed Services Committee chairman, Rep. Duncan Hunter, wrote the resolution, which asked whether members thought "that the deployment of United States forces in Iraq be terminated immediately."

"We're going to let every member answer that, and I hope the message that goes back to our troops in Iraq is that we do not support a precipitous pullout," Hunter said.

Pelosi slammed Hunter's proposal as "a political stunt and should it be rejected by this House" - minutes before she voted with the Republican majority.

OK, everybody who would feel confident having Botox Nancy commanding America's armed forces take two steps forward.

Nice out of context quoting by Newsmax

It sure hurts when it's done to liberals, doesn't it?

Good - and I won't be happy until I see all the Lib lunatics foaming at the mouth in exasperation from even MORE GOP displays of b*lls.

[neutrality]

It's annoying in general

[new yorker 77]

That's a stretch.

With apologies to Sinatra:

If I don't see her each day I miss her
Gee, what a thrill each time I kiss her
I've got a terrible case
On Nancy with the frowning face

She takes the winter and makes it summer
But summer could take some lessons from her
Picture a tomboy in lace
That's Nancy with the frowning face

Have you ever heard mission bells ringin'?
Well, she'll give you the very same glow
When she speaks you would think it was singin'
Just hear her say "hello"

I swear to goodness you can't resist her
Sorry for you, she has no sister
No angel could replace
Nancy with the frowning face

Keep Betty Grable, Lamour, and Turner
She makes my heart a charcoal burner
It's heaven when I embrace
My Nancy with the frowning face

Nanci you're a bruta disgraziato.

I can't tell if dem schizophrenia is communicable or not. I would like to see a real shrink's take on this.

Perhaps Charles Krauthammer will weigh in on his next column...

[woofie]

So what is the context? I dont see how this article is off base?

[johnny7]

Her skins been stretched so tight she hums like a overloaded transformer.

[KC_Conspirator]

Pelosi is the disgraceful one. She is from the district that voted military recuriter out.

[proud American in Canada]

Even Murtha didn't vote to recommend immediate withdrawal

LOL! Amazing.

[HawaiianGecko]

	When you are one of the only three members of your party on the same side of a vote, should you really be the minority leader? She voted with the other 402 that voted against it. I agree she's a twit, but let's not rewrite history. This broad's a maroon!

"Pelosi slammed Hunter's proposal as "a political stunt and should it be rejected by this House" - minutes before she voted with the Republican majority."

Can we PLEASE see more of this from the repubs. They have got to play political hardball with the demonrats.

[DoughtyOne]

Dang, she's sounding more and more like presidential material from the left. "She spoke out against it, after she voted for it." It's the John Kerry model, shown to be soooo successful in the recent past.

[Ditter]

Anything that gets Pelosi's panties in a bunch is OK in my book! Get on national TV and whine everyday and I'll be a happy Republican.

[Reagan Man]

The objective with the Duncan proposal was to get House members on record. The 403-3 vote speaks for itself.

[Mr. Wright]

Nancy Pilosi and the rest of the liberal left Demmy's need to
listen to the message from the Ghost of General Patton.
I have included the link . . . LISTEN TO THIS MESSAGE . . .
only as General Patton could say it!

Tell us Nancy, since the vote went 400 to 3 with your vote, not against, what is your problem? Did you cast a dishonest vote? Just wondering...
