Pelosi's Foreign Policy Sucks - Sucking Up To Chavez Edition

Two posts trace Barack Obama's connections to some relatively dark corners. Ed Lasky tracks down Obama's connections to George "I grew up in a Jewish, anti-Semitic home" Soros and Anne Lieberman follows the threads that tie Obama to the highly problematic Trinity Church. But that's not what's pissing us off this morning about the Democrats.

These self-styled saviors think that they're entitled to run their own foreign policy:

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi refuses to meet with the Pro-American capitalist President of Colombia this week - even when he said he would go out of his way to come to her office - but is making plans to visit the Marxist dictator Hugo Chavez in the fall!... According to sources within the House Democratic leadership, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has denied the request for a meeting with Uribe when he comes to Washington next week. Uribe's staff has attempted to set up a meeting with Pelosi, offering to come to her offices with Uribe if necessary. Pelosi has refused the meeting.

"She has third parties who have encouraged her not to take the meeting," says a leadership aide, who said a coalition of labor organizations and MoveOn.org had been pressuring her to not meet with Uribe. "We've never seen anything like it. It's not like we're talking about some family from San Francisco who stopped by her office unannounced. This is the president of a country." In Colombia, Uribe has been struggling against communist terrorist groups financed by Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez,

These people are just lunatics. Can you imagine what will happen if they get a hold of the Executive, and actually have the Constitutional mandate to conduct foreign policy? Then again, maybe it wouldn't be that bad. After a couple of years, the whole world would love us. Although that doesn't sound so good when you realize that Muslim France and Iran, Communist Venezuela, Baathist Syria, and totalitarian Russia would be all that's left of "the world".
