Bush assails Pelosi's trip to Syria - Is this a Pelosi double standard?
Posted by richrobinson 9 years, 7 months ago to The Gulch: General
I haven't heard any one in the media bring this up. This is an article from April 2007. The Bush White House was quite critical of Speaker Pelosi visiting Syria. She shrugged off the criticism and went anyway. Recently Pelosi was critical of Boehner inviting Benjamin Netanyahu to speak before Congress. This seems like a major double standard.
Let's be clear here.
No one in The Senate physically went to Iran.
They sent a letter which clarified the process of United States treaty ratification to Iran's leaders.
On the other hand, Pelosi defied strong warnings from the Bush State Department and physically went to Syria to meet with Bashar al-Assad.
While she was there Pelosi, the current Speaker of The House, publicly submitted to Islam while in Bashar al-Assad's company by putting on a scarf as a hijab before entering a mosque.
To rub salt in the wound, the scarf she used was a $350.00+ Hermes French silk scarf... because, you know, when you submit to Islam, and sell out the country that you represent, you always want to look as fashionable as possible.
As far as I'm concerned, and always have been, that one act made Nancy Pelosi not only guilty of the Logan Act, but guilty of treason.
As Papa Possum said in "Old Sun Tzu":
"Pelosi met the enemy,
our President to shame,
and wore an Hermès hijab
to top off her traitor's game.
She undermined command,
against advice from Old Sun Tzu.
So, Democrats, what makes you think
we'd ever fight for you?"

Very good. That line reminds me of something I heard once before. :)

Pelosi... hypocrisy is thy name.
Could she be any more disrespectful, disreputable... petulant?
Remember her disrespect to Netanyahu? While he pleaded for the future of his country,
she turned her back to him when he said, “Even if Israel has to stand alone, Israel will stand.”
And this little nugget, “I was near tears throughout the prime minister’s speech – saddened by the insult to the intelligence of the United States as part of the P5 +1 nations, and saddened by the condescension toward our knowledge of the threat posed by Iran and our broader commitment to preventing nuclear proliferation." Really? Somehow Pelosi and intelligence sound like a contradiction in terms to me.

We commoners are to do what they say and never worry about what they do.
This why even a RINO Speaker of the House serves as their water boy.
This is why an alphabet soup of government departments and agencies will harass any lowly peon who complains.
This is 2015 America. Screwy, ain't it?
