Pelosi is a Useful Idiot

Nancy Pelosi demonstrated why members of Congress should not try to conduct foreign affairs and why we actually have a State Department to do just that thing. She disregarded the wishes of the White House and visited terrorist supporting Syria where she made a few gaffs. The Iranians watch the news and they are well aware of the problems that Pelosi has caused and they are aware that President Bush was not happy with her. So what do you do if you are a maniacal leader of a rogue nation and you want to insult the President of the most powerful country in the world? Easy, invite Pelosi to your nation to discuss foreign affairs.

The United States has not had diplomatic relations with Iran since the man who is now its President, as a much younger man, took Americans hostage and held them for more than a year. Pelosi has helped them out by expressing her desire to meet with them because that is what a good Democrat does in America, consort with the enemy. Pelosi backed off the visit idea but Iran did not and the Iranians are rubbing this whole mess in President Bush’s face.

“We are ready for talks with US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi,” said Mohammad Nabi Rudaki, deputy head of the influential national security commission in Iran’s conservative-dominated parliament.

“Parliamentary talks can discuss bilateral problems and bring US, European and Iranian nations closer. They could also consider Iran’s peaceful nuclear issues,” he said. Breitbart

It is not the job of the Screecher of the House to meet with these people but they have shown a willingness to meet with her and that is because they have seen how easily she can be manipulated. The probably call her Play Doh over there because they can shape her any way they want her and as long as it makes the President of the US look bad, she is all for it.

Pelosi stepped out of her lane and assumed Executive Branch functions, she consorted with a State sponsor of terrorism, she relayed a message from Israel that Israel never sent, and she allowed Syria to play her like a cheap fiddle (though a cheap fiddle has better sound coming out of it). By doing these things and expressing a willingness to talk to Iran she has circumvented the Executive Branch and usurped the authority of the President. She has taken the side of our enemies and this should be of great concern.

The Democratic Party is full of people who would rather side with our enemies than with their own country. Given this, it is surprising that Hillary finally decided that America is worth fighting for though I suspect she would not feel that way were she not running for the Presidency.

The best way to win a war is to beat the enemy. It would be a lot easier if people like Pelosi played on our team instead of theirs.
