What is Evil, Liberal, God-Hating Nancy Pelosi thinking?!?!

Of course, this who dust up is just another example of the social/political phenomenon known as IOKIYAR.

Josh Marshall speaks, you listen:

I knew as a general matter that the White House was just bamboozling the press with this Pelosi-in-Syria malarkey since plenty of Republicans from Congress have recently gone there too. But I didn't know the precise details. In addition to recent trips by other Congressional Republicans there's actually a GOP House delegation in Syria right now, according to ThinkProgress. And in March a senior State Department official held talks in Damascus about flow of Iraqi refugees.

I would say that George W. Bush is Dan Quayle in cowboy boots, but I have too much respect for Dan Quayle to make that comparison.
