Pelosi: Bush thinking on Iraq 'impaired'

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday that she believes President Bush's judgment on the Iraq war "is a little impaired."

She also said his approach to Iraq is based on personal conviction, rather than political judgment.

"What I don't think is that it is a political decision on the part of the president. This is what he firmly believes," Pelosi said in an interview with CNN's "Larry King Live." (Watch more of Pelosi's interview Video)

"I just would hope that whatever he thinks about the war that he would also value the fact that the American people have lost confidence in him." (Watch how the Iraq war has changed public perception of Bush Video)

"I think his judgment is a little impaired on this war, with all due respect to the president and his good intentions," she told King.

Pelosi also blasted a comment made last week by Vice President Dick Cheney that legislative moves by Pelosi and other House Democrats to oppose Bush's war policy would "validate" al Qaeda's strategy.

"What the vice president said is beneath the dignity of his office and beneath the dignity of the sacrifice of our men and women in uniform," Pelosi said.

2. So is Pelosi's
If she thinks any of this will end without resolutions against war on iran, cutting funding, binding resolutions, or impeachments. She is living in a fairytale land. I want some of the kool aid!

5. yet, despite the constant bleating of her critics, that effort is pending
Edited on Wed Feb-28-07 01:41 PM by bigtree
I have no doubt that if that effort fails because of the continuing republican obstruction, her critics would still blame the Democrats first.

She and the Senate leadership are right to make certain they have an bill ready to present which has the widest amount of support if it's to be anything more than a futile protest.

3. I have an idea Nancy. Vote on another non-binding resolution!
That'll fix the Chimp's ass.

On second thought Nancy, just shut the fuck up. If you're not willing to fight the prick, I don't give a damn what you have to say.
