Really, really short observation here.
Who the f*ck do these bastards think they are?
Pelosi's Syria Visit a Felony?
Private citizens are prohibited from negotiating with foreign governments -- ensuring the country speaks with one official voice abroad. But the House speaker says her message "was President Bush's message."
This is ABCNews.com's latest attempt to slant the news in a conservative direction.
Now, they're literally trying to slime Nancy Pelosi. It isn't enough to employ amoral, ethically-challenged video bloggers like Amanda Congdon - now they're in the business of writing headlines on their main Web page that don't even rise to the level of Hearstian yellow journalism.
The article never states (it's the AP piece that has been published elsewhere) this concept anywhere. ABC just wanted to add value to the story.
Ummm.... Mark Halperin: Hello? Nancy Pelosi is, ummm, the Speaker of the House? Not a private citizen?
Darrell Issa (R-Vista) was there too, on his own junket. Hey, ABC. He a felon too?
Not to mention the prominent Repub who was WITH Pelosi on the trip.
Really, this slime is so disgusting I refuse to link to it.
The scumbag who wrote this headline should be fired and forced to re-take their journalism ethics classes.
