Yeah, right. I "love violence" but am anti-war! Go figure! LOL And this coming from folks who were dancing when Iraqis were getting bombed during "Shock and Awe", even though they had done NOTHING to us. And what was I doing on 9-11? I went to work as usual. In the afternoon, I was having lunch at a local eatery, and the TV was on. A wise old man watching the TV said, "This is the end of our nation. They don't need to fire even one more shot. We will destroy our country ourselves" That was before the illegal wiretapping, the destruction of habeas corpus and the labeling of those who were anti-war as anti-American.

In an interview, Pelosi also said she was puzzled by what she considered the president's minimalist explanation for his confidence in the new surge of 21,500 U.S. troops that he has presented as the crux of a new "way forward" for U.S. forces in Iraq. "He's tried this two times — it's failed twice," the California Democrat said. "I asked him at the White House, 'Mr. President, why do you think this time it's going to work?' And he said, 'Because I told them it had to.' " Asked if the president had elaborated, she added that he simply said, " 'I told them that they had to.' That was the end of it. That's the way it is." Apparently, Iraq is a mess because Bush hadn't gotten around to telling the generals it "had to" work. But now that he has, all's well that ends well. Now shut up and clap louder!
