...Which is exactly my point. She lies, they all lie. Everything they say is a lie, including "and" and "the". The only instructive thing is that in the face of all current events, the lies continue.
Not much to argue with there. But I would just point out that before, Pelosi was lying about President Bush. Now because of harsh reality, she's forced to lie about her previous lies, and make some kind of move toward Bush, no matter how disingenuous. No doubt she'll resort to newer lies as circumstances change.
I would posit that watching them squirm as they try to adjust to this new reality gives us ammunition, insight, and a wee bit of schadenfreude. The Democrats have literally provided a decades worth of campaign commercials for the GOP, and this killing of bin Laden and the obvious discord with the Leftist narrative on the Bush years twists the knife. If the GOP can't capitalize on it, they're as hopeless as we think they are.
I see what you're saying here, particularly about the GOP, keeping in mind that they are the "us" to whom has been provided the aforesaid ammunition, so not a given. *Stupid party*.
I'm missing the "insight" part. They lie, we know they lie, and then they lie about the lies, with the LSM ignoring it all. Where's the benefit to us and further insight?
The only upside would be if Bush denied she ever made the call, and I doubt he'd do that.
As one example, the article I linked at powerline (last post on page 2 of this thread) gives us an "A/B" comparison of the before and after Pelosi. It shows her in her own words to be a pathetic, opportunistic, shameless liar.
You and I know this, and most conservatives who follow politics know this. But now she's been forced to place it squarely out in the open, and given the proper light (hello, GOP?) her own twisting and contorting to meld with this new post-bin Laden assassination reality can provide increased insight to the public at large, as well as give us (meaning wonks and GOP operatives) ammunition with which to form our own strategy going forward.
That's why I think Pelosi's false praise for Bush is relevant. Bin Laden's assassination has changed the game, and forced Leftists into corners they don't want to be in. her proclamation of a call to Bush is indicative of it.
