Warm Reception: Pelosi Snubbed, Then Lectured in Baghdad
Thanks to antics like her trip to Syria, this site began as Impeach Reid and Pelosi dot com.
In contrast to her warm reception in Syria a year ago, Gateway Pundit reports that "Crazy Aunt Nan" got a chilly reception in Baghdad this week:
"Poor antiwar Nancy Pelosi was left stranded in Baghdad for 24 hours before the Iraqi Prime Minister made it back to Baghdad to meet with her. TIME Magazine reported:
Pelosi is something of a nonentity to average Iraqis. If they know who she is at all, she is generally seen as an antiwar caricature figure, someone whose views on U.S. troop withdrawals are widely considered unrealistic.
Pelosi has said ...

Al Qaeda Has Lost 6,000 Suicide Bombers in Iraq
That would be 6,000 fewer suicide bombers who could try and make their way to American soil.
From Gateway Pundit:
The majority of foreign terrorists enter Iraq to carry out suicide attacks, signing a pledge that formally commits them to that duty. Over 90% of suicide bombers are foreign terrorists, and these high profile attacks account for a large majority of the Iraqi losses inflicted by al-Qaeda. (MNF-Iraq)
Al-Qaeda has used 6,000 suicide bombers inside Iraq.
Sunni leaders reported this news based on records discovered in an Al-Qaeda training camp.
AKI reported:
Al-Qaeda has used 6,000 suicide bombers in Iraq since the fall of Saddam Hussein, according to records discovered in a terrorist training camp in ...

Everyone Knows We’re at War . . . Except Congress
From Iraq war veteran Joel Arends at The Tank:
Does Congress Realize We're at War? [Joel Arends]
At midnight tonight America will become much more susceptible to a terrorist act. It will happen because the Democrat-controlled Congress failed to reauthorize the Protect America Act. This legislation gives our military, intelligence, and law-enforcement communities the tools they need to conduct surveillance on terrorists. Yet, instead of fighting to make us safer Congress, led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, blocked a vote on this bill all week and then went home on a twelve-day recess.
America is at war. I can attest to that after serving in Iraq as an Infantry Platoon Leader with the Army’s First Calvary ...

Finally, Someone is Saying It: “The Surge Worked”
Of course, we've known and been reporting this for months: the Surge worked.
When will Harry Reid eat his words? When will Nancy Pelosi praise the American military and the Iraqi people for defeating al Qaeda?
We won't hold our breath.
The Surge Worked
By JOHN MCCAIN and JOE LIEBERMAN
January 10, 2008; Page A15
It was exactly one year ago tonight, in a televised address to the nation, that President George W. Bush announced his fateful decision to change course in Iraq, and to send five additional U.S. combat brigades there as part of a new counterinsurgency strategy and under the command of a new general, David Petraeus.
At the ...

The Dems: Big Babies
Given that the Dems were so focused on losing in Iraq this year, it is appropo that at the end of the day it is they who have been dubbed the losers:
Dems Still Trumped by Bush in 2007
By LAURIE KELLMAN – 16 hours ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — It's a painful irony for Democrats: In the space of a year, the Iraq war that was the source of party's resurgence in Congress became the measure of its impotence.
By the end of the 2007, a Congress controlled by Democrats for the first time since 1994 had an approval rating of only 25 percent, down from 40 percent last spring. Then the debate over the war ...

The Dems Lose Again
Harry and Nancy look like losers, again:
Support For Armenian Genocide Measure Wanes In Washington
WASHINGTON, October 18, 2007 (RFE/RL) -- U.S. congressional support appears to be fading for a controversial resolution that defines the mass killing of Armenians during the final throes of the Ottoman Empire as genocide.
. . . The resolution had appeared to have the necessary backing from Democrats to win passage in the full House of Representatives. But on October 17, a group of prominent Democrats suddenly withdrew their support.
They urged House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Democrat, California) not to go ahead with her plan to bring the measure to a full House vote. The group included Florida ...

Apparently, Wolf and Nancy aren’t dating anymore
Right after she was elected Speaker of the House, Wolf Blitzer gushed to Nancy Pelosi, "This is going to be an exciting ride!"
Wolf Blitzer: "Let me just congratulate you and wish you the best of luck. This is going to be an exciting ride. We started off that you are going to be the first woman to be the Speaker of the House. So you have an enormous amount of responsibility that comes with the job, a little bit extra because you're making history."
Nancy Pelosi: "Well, I appreciate your saying that and I think one of my first acts as -- post-election, will be to become a grandmother for the sixth time. ...

Methinks the Dems Doth Speaketh too Much….
There is an old saying in the law: If you have the facts, argue the facts. If you have the law, argue the law. If you have neither the law nor the facts, obfuscate.
One thing we can be sure of, Dick Durbin, Charles Schumer, and Nancy Pelosi, were paying attention in law school. Faced with the reality of progress in Iraq the Democrat leadership is on the move -- before the Petraeus report has even hit Capitol Hill -- doing their best to confuse the matter.
The primary complaint is that General Petraeus -- the General who actually runs the Surge on the ground in Iraq -- actually talked with the staff of the Commander in Chief of the ...

The Road to Terror Runs through Damascus
Remember this famously inane statement from Nancy Pelosi? "The road to peace runs through Damascus."
Joe Lieberman has a different, and much more accurate, message in today's Wall Street Journal: "The road to terror runs through Damascus."
Al Qaeda's Travel Agent
Damascus International Airport is a hub for terrorists.
BY JOSEPH LIEBERMAN
The United States is at last making significant progress against al Qaeda in Iraq--but the road to victory now requires cutting off al Qaeda's road to Iraq through Damascus.
Thanks to Gen. David Petraeus's new counterinsurgency strategy in Iraq, and the strength and skill of the American soldiers fighting there, al Qaeda in Iraq is now being routed from its former strongholds in Anbar and Diyala provinces. Many of Iraq's Sunni Arabs, ...
