As if Bush needs any help from Democrats, I have just read that [Nancy Pelosi has defended Bush against Chavez .  
From the CNN.com article:


Two of President Bush's staunchest domestic critics leapt to his defense Thursday, a day after one of his fiercest foreign foes called him "the devil" in a scorching speech before the United Nations.

"You don't come into my country; you don't come into my congressional district and you don't condemn my president," Rep. Charles Rangel, D-New York, scolded Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-California, was blunt in her criticism of the Venezuelan leader. "He is an everyday thug," she said.

I just called Pelosi's Washington DC office at (202) 225-4965, and let her representative know that I will not be donating money to Democrats if this type of Republican-boot-licking is kept up.
