House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said yesterday that Democrats should not seek a unified position on an exit strategy in Iraq, calling the war a matter of individual conscience and saying differing positions within the caucus are a source of strength for the party.

Pelosi said Democrats will produce an issue agenda for the 2006 elections but it will not include a position on Iraq. There is consensus within the party that President Bush has mismanaged the war and that a new course is needed, but House Democrats should be free to take individual positions, she sad [sic].

"There is no one Democratic voice . . . and there is no one Democratic position," Pelosi said in an interview with Washington Post reporters and editors.

Let's see how long the libs let her get away with this.

Straddling the fence for too long will leave you with barbed wire up your butt.

Dear Boxer shorts,

Nice spin. Lack of a unified stance on Iraq means only that liberals are too stupid to make up their idiot minds.

Your friend,
