I wish the South Park guys would do an episode on Nancy Pelosi “fact-finding” in Syria. The comic potential is immense.
Another take would be to give Nancy a pop quiz on the plane over. “Nancy, what’s an Alawite?” or “What’s Hama?” I’d bet my house (and, yes, it’s intact) you’d get a blank stare and response similar to this one. So maybe it’s a good thing she’s doing a little fact-finding. Bashar Assad will set her straight.

I saw this on the news this morning, and my first thought was “Roger L. Simon won’t let this one pass without comment.”
I can’t wait for the pix from the photo-op. Pelosi and Assad as he tortures her with tea and the Comfy Chair.
For Hama were you trying this link?

I could understand Pelosi going on a “fact finding” tour of the Lebanon. I hear the shopping in Beirut is still pretty good. But Damascus? What’s in Damascus, Syrian knockoffs of Persian rugs? Madam Speaker, why not go straight to the source, Teheran?
How stupid must we be to have let this harpy fly in and suck the life out of the body politic?
Hey she’s just trying to multitask and get an eye exam while she’s in the region.
The eye lady meets the eye doctor. Maybe she’s going for treatment. “Gee, Madam Speaker, you look like you have trouble seeing. I shall help you see more clearly?”
What could be more natural than a summit meeting between two allies in the War on Bush?
So…..what’s she going to wear for the occasion???
She favors that “Hugo Red” it seems.
