“Well, the purpose of the surge was to provide a secure space, a time for the political change to occur to accomplish the reconciliation. That didn’t happen. Whatever the military success, and progress that may have been made, the surge didn’t accomplish its goal. And some of the success of the surge is that the goodwill of the Iranians – they decided in Basra when the fighting would end, they negotiated that cessation of hostilities – the Iranians.”
— Nancy Pelosi, during an 80-minute interview with reporters and members of the editorial board of The San Francisco Chronicle, 5/28

Wild Thing’s comment……..
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has set us all straight. Our soldiers, risking their lives, aren’t responsible for the reduction of violence in Iraq and the solidifying of their government. According to Madam Speaker, we should all be thanking… Iran…..OMG she is nuts! Discounting the success of the American military, denying the accomplishments of U.S. and our allies, and giving the credit to our most dangerous enemies!
“We should be thanking the Third Reich for not invading New York after Hitler invaded Poland in 1940…We should thank Jap Emperor Hirohito for not bombing San Fransicko after Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941…We should thank Osama bin Laden for not taking out the Empire State building on 9-11-01…”
Who the F is this left-wingbat nutcase? Oh yeah…She is the Democratic Speaker of the House!
I agree, Nancy Pelosi is a despicable traitorous leftist “thing”. She (and I use the term she loosely) should be speaker of the Iranian Parliament, not speaker of the house.
Who in the blue blazes does she think she is? The Iranians have done nothing for us and have been nothing but a thorn in our side since 1979 when they declared war on us. This is getting too much like One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest meets Animal House!
Pelosi is nuttier than the people we are fighting. She does not have the slightest inkling of the fact that the people she is praising would put her in a burka and as the fourth wife have her carrying the groceries or firewood 10 feet behind the man who owns her.
I’m guessing that there is a blogger in Iran posting an item that says, “Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Says We All Should Be Thanking….the United States!”
“Well, the purpose of the surge was to provide a secure space, a time for the political change to occur to accomplish the reconciliation. That didn’t happen. Whatever the military success, and progress that may have been made, the surge didn’t accomplish its goal. And some of the failure of the surge is that the goodwill of the Americans – they decided all over the United States and in DC when the fighting would end, they unilaterally surrendered and called for the cessation of United States hostilities and occupation – the Americans – Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, John Murtha, Barack Hussein Obama, and all the other Defeatocrats.”
Ah that glow that you only see emanating from a nuclear source approaching critical mass, hope to never see it outside the deuterium oxide sheilding ever. I’ve seen it in the Gamma pit, it will put the fear of God in you. From her perspective Pelosi thanks the Iranians for spooking the gutless into supporting her party’s defeatist agenda. Perhaps Pelosi will understand once Iran tests a nuke against our ally Israel, or one of it’s proxies lights up a neighborhood near you.
If this weren’t so serious it would be laughable, Congress is the laughingstock of the world, it’s like a crazy scene from Joseph Heller’s Catch 22. Replace John Murtha with Colonel Cathcart, Harry Reid with Colonel Korn, both trying to get Bush ( Yossarian) killed, Nancy Pelosi can still be Nately’s whore while stabbing Yossarian in the back, with the rest of the cast claiming it was a heroic deed to protect the members of Congress.
Don’t forget for a second that Nancy is the product of Bernie Sander’s CPC the Communist wing of the Democrat party and that they are still fomenting the Russian Revolution of Marxism on US soil.
Darth,exactly with explanation points loaded with ammo. All that like our awesome military did nothing. grrrrrrrrrrrr DOUBLE GRRRRR
Bob good idea and we can send her their strapped to the outside of a plane. What she does like saying this should really be punished somehow, it is bad enough to say it and to say such a thing during the war is oh man it really ticks me off.
Lynn, good way to put it, yes it is crazy nuts….”One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest meets Animal House!”
Tom, just day dreaming here that if what you said could happen, she would wake up fast as to what the enemy is about.
Les, good one, can we send those idiots, all of them straight to stinky in Iran.I would like that very much.
Jack, “Congress is the laughingstock of the world” they sure are. These people don’t even care that the entire world is watching how we deal with this enemy Islam and the war.
“Look out Salty Nick… our Tigress of the Tigris is on the prowl with a lovely double GRRRR….!”
Sharia Law suits Nutsy Pelosi and her treasonous scumbats! Off to the Monster Mile…—>>>>>!!
