Comments on: Pelosi Says She Wasn't Consulted On Iraq

New House Speaker Wants Bush To Reach Out To Democrats

[teeus]

It's PRESIDENT and COMMANDER IN CHIEF.

Not KING and DICTATOR FOR LIFE.

Why should he consult others before unilaterally deciding to put our children in harms way? Because that the way the system was set up. The system he swore to protect and defend. Perhaps you should study a bit yourself.

Okinawa? Really? Oh boy, that's not good.

[one_american]

Why would anyone consult Nancy Pelosi for a war plan?

It's a war plan, not a face-lift!

bellaL:

Okinawa is the "other place" I think she has in mind. She got the idea from Jack Murtha.

Or maybe she consulted her grandkids.

Anyway, she says she "prays". That's bound to really upset her liberal constituents, for sure.

Nancy Pelosi is NOT the president.

There is ONLY one commander-in-chief, NOT 435 commanders-in chiefs.

Period, end of discussion; because it's constitutional.

The US constitution clearly states that the President is commander-in-chief.

YOU NEED TO STUDY THE CONSTITUTION YOURSELF.

"I don't see any signal that the president is ready to listen. Nonetheless I pray %u2014 and I use the word very, very specifically %u2014 pray that he will go to another place on Iraq."

Maybe Speaker Pelosi should articulate WHERE the other "place" she wants the president to go on Iraq.

Uh, what other "place" does she want him to go to.

WE LIVE IN A FASCIST COUNTRY.

LORD BUSH SHOULD HAVE BEEN IMPEACHED.

THE IRAQ WAR IS ABOUT WAR PROFITS.

WHO CARES ABOUT THE 2008 ELECTIONS??

WE THE PEOPLE HAVE NO SAY IN OUR GOVERNMENT. NONE.

Does everyone (mostly democrats) fail to remember how congress actually works? Speaker Pelosi can say whatever she likes, but the fact is, Democrats do not have the 2/3 majority in both houses required to overthrow a presidential veto.

For instance, the recent proposed "legislation" against Bush's Iraq troop deployment. It's not a law, it's not anything that means anything! It's like issuing a press release. I surely hope THIS isn't what people voted for...
