On That Pelosi Speech [Amy Holmes] THE CORNER It seems to me that the real problem with her speech was its illogic. She stridently attacked George Bush's "failed economic policies" and then, in the same breath, implored members to support his most controversial, unprecedented policy, yet. So, her message was George Bush has been an unmitigated disaster for 8 years. He hasn't gotten one thing right and has plunged America into an economic black hole. But in this case, we need to trust him. Why? Because she says so? They had a huddle? On what political goodwill was she drawing? The public strongly disapproves of the bailout bill. And to make legislative matters worse, voters have a lower opinion of Congress than a used car dealership. Congressional approval ratings have never been lower. After eight years of relentless partisan attacks on George Bush, Democrats have not only succeeded in sowing distrust of the administration, but of their own judgment, as well. So, now, when our leaders tell us that we have a genuine crisis, they have no credibility to lead us out. Such are the wages of blind, partisanship. We don't trust what they tell us they see. corner.nationalreview.com thks to LB
