Pelosi in new depths of denial
Nancy Pelosi never fails to amaze me. Ace of Spades explains because I’m nearly speechless;
Having blurted out, probably accidentally, that the surge was in fact successful, Granny Rictus McBotoxImplants now scrambles to credit the enemy nation murdering our troops with the victory our troops accomplished through blood, sweat, tears, and more blood.
It’s not our troops. It’s not Petraeus’ leadership. It’s not the Iraqis turning on the Al Qaeda murderers. No — it’s Iran’s goodwill.
Isn’t that grand? The wonderfully rational Ahmadinejad finally decided he’d killed enough Iraqis and Americans and stopped. From Abe Greenwald of Commentary magazine;
Asked if she saw any evidence of the surge’s positive impact on her May 17 trip to Iraq she responded:
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.
This is an inexcusable slander. Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki brought the Sadrists militias to their knees in a month-long battle that enabled Iraq’s largest Sunni bloc to rejoin the government. Furthermore, when Pelosi met with Prime Minister al-Maliki in Mosul she sang quite a different tune. She had “welcomed Iraq’s progress in passing a budget as well as oil legislation, and a bill paving the way for the provincial elections in the fall that are expected to more equitably redistribute power among local officials,” and stated, “We’re assured the elections will happen here, they will be transparent, they will be inclusive and they will take Iraq closer to the reconciliation we all want it to have.”
Is it possible that anyone else on this planet is so prepared to throw our troops, the Iraqis, under the proverbial bus faster? Michael Goldfarb of The Weekly Standard writes;
Just two months ago, Pelosi said, “I hope we don’t hear any glorification of what happened in Basra.” It seems she was only talking about glorifying the role of the U.S. military and our Iraqi allies, who were in fact victorious. Apparently glorification of the enemy is still allowed.
This is the extent to which the Left goes to make a political point. These are the people we’ve chosen to represent the people of this nation. I’d expect that from some back-bencher in Canada, not our own Speaker of the House – third in line to being our head of state. If this doesn’t drag those conservatives out to vote, I don’t know what could.

Am I missing something or have the Democraps been chanting some kind of mantra minimizing Iranian involvement in Iraq? basically blowing off the idea that they have ANY share of the blame for the situation there???
WTF, am I really confused or what?
BOHICA!
ponsdorf, were you a member of the 509th Airborne?
We had a chant, “Umm, Bohica! Umm, Bohica!” We did this when we were SCREWED by our Officers (although, to be honest, we were violating certain limits-of-fire and other orders).
It reminds me of a World War II study I saw decades ago … the American Army would try ANYTHING. The U.S. Army forces would break under fire immediately, re-form immediately (with somewhat unfavorable comparisons to the British, German, and Russian Armies), and try ANYTHING (especially if it was “stupid,” to see if it “worked.”) If it worked, it wasn’t “stupid.”
Now, to Pelosi. What, we are supposed to be GRATEFUL that the IRANIANS (I KNOW she was supposed to be OLD enough in 1979 to LEARN who the “Iranians” are) have had their ASSES handed to them? That the little bast*rds have been permitted to escape (thanks to Dhimmi Carter!) their rightful retribution is a complete FAILURE of Democratic Party politics. In 1979, I thought that the Iranians should have nuked. I still think that, although I am willing to provide enough notice so that certain factions of the current Persian political body should be given sufficient notice that they can evacuate.
Is “Bushitler” going to conduct such a strike? No, I certainly don’t think so.
Would the world be better off without the insane beliefs of Imadinnerjacket? Absolutely. Would the United States be better off by demonstratively demonstrating that lunatics like this NEED to be exterminated? Absolutely! Is Obama STUPID enough to “conciliate” with this madman? Absolutely! “Yes, we can!” Is Obama willing to exercise the moral willingness to kill a “Hitler” BEFORE sliding into another World War? “No, he can’t!”
Granny Rictus McBotoxImplants
Definitely a name that works! 🙂 I lost it when I read that, a true classic!
When the lefty politicians and the sheeple that follow them invest so much intellectual and emotional energy in self-loathing defeat, due to their hatred of our President, it’s such a negative vibe that I do believe it’s driving them crazy. The First Amendment is a wonderful thing, just let Granny Rictus McBotoxImplants, Dingy Harry and Besmircha Murtha keep on running their friggin’ mouths and screwing themselves. They just can’t help it! 🙂
Hmmmm, no comments from Wheeler yet? Amazing?
Hey Cqbb With McClellan on a bash Bush tour;89th Army Div.deriding admin “chickenhawks” and nutcase Steve Gilbert;Rupert Murdoch predicting an Obama landslide and close to endorsing him(who needs Soros?)I figured I’d be the gentleman and not pile on.Sleep well.It can’t get worse.
