#1 the trip showed the importance of undermining the rule of law meeting leaders at odds with the U.S.

#2 When Halfbright was talking to foreign government leaders it was as the designated representative of the Executive branch, not a Logan Act-violating individual who was expressly told she was NOT a representative of the US (despite being a Representative of the state of California.)

#6 What in Hell has allowed America to forget the lessons of World War II? Back then, Albright, Pelosi and their ilk would have been branded as traitors in a heartbeat. Instead these fuckwits get to meddle in affairs so far out of their orbit that it makes the Oort cloud look like next door.

#7 "brushing aside a request from Bush"
but noooo, whatever happened to not negotiating with terrorists and not giving any credibility to terrorists? Thanks Pelosi.
I only recently read the Logan act, learning about it here on the 'burg, let's institute it!

#8 Zen...I think what happened is the trunk Congress/ Senate forgot who brung 'em to the dance. And W lost his vision and his cajones. The whole trunk party through away the advantage, including credibility and the Goodwill of the vast middle-of-the-roaders...and here we sit.

Can you imagine what Halfbright and Clinton would have done if Gingrich or Hastert would have pulled the stunt Pelosi did?

Sounds like a pretty fatal combination, anymouse. Someone needs to tell George that they don't grow back by themselves.

#12 Correct if I am wrong, but didn't Pelosi tell the Syrians that Israel was ready to negotiate on pending issues in the Middle East; only to has Israel to deny it? This show's Speaker Pelosi's naivete about the Middle East or being seriously ill advised. The scarier part is that she is third in line for the Oval Office. If that does not keep one awake at night, I don't know what would.

#13 You are indeed correct, Caesar Glemp7672. I think this shows that Speaker Pelosi is willing to walk quite a distance from the truth, if she thinks it will make her look good.
