"...if Pelosi ever goes beyond complaining that Cheney is impugning her 'patriotism' "

that's a mighty big "IF..."

Vice President Dick Cheney says he stands by his accusation that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s plan for withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq would “validate the al-Qaeda strategy.” And he apparently thinks he got the better of this latest war of words.

However, if Pelosi ever goes beyond complaining that Cheney is impugning her “patriotism” – while Cheney counters that he is only questioning her “judgment” – she might point out that it is the Bush administration that has “validated” al-Qaeda’s 9/11 strategy over the past five years.

Captured al-Qaeda documents reveal that Osama bin Laden’s principal goal in the 9/11 attacks was to lure the United States into a clumsy counterattack in the Middle East that would alienate Muslims, help al-Qaeda recruit more jihadists and bog down the American military in a no-win war.

one thing nancy could do is go visit robert parry's archives on consortium news and carefully read his articulate and well-documented reporting on the crimes and lies of the bush administration... then she should set her staff doing due diligence and assembling the mass of documentation parry references and distilling it into a comprehensive briefing, complete with executive summary and press releases, on the monstrosities we elected to govern our country... THOSE would be the democratic talking points, repeated endlessly by every house democrat every time he or she makes a public statement... let's cut the crap and stop tolerating bush and his gang... we need STEELY RESOLVE...! we need ACTION...!
