ABC News: Pelosi Won't Attend Petraeus Briefing

Later on she justifies it by saying she had a half hour phone conversation with him. Reid says he won't believe a word he says anyway, and other Dems skip out on the meetings.

These guys, who are becoming ever more powerful in your party, say don't listen to the guy. The far left loonies are taking over your party Storman, it is something that you guys are slow to realize.

When General Petraeus Speaks, Don’t Listen - CommonDreams.org

I can't get the Harry Reid YouTube page to come up, but just google "Harry Reid won't listen to Petraeus" and see another example of Dem leadership blowing the guy off.

You can also google about Dems skipping his briefing meetings . . . they sure show a lot of respect for the man, huh?

If I remember correctly, Rastaman praised Dems for not listening to the man. Like I said, they are taking over your party.
Well, if Reid did indeed say that, than he's an idiot...although neither of your links claimed that he said that. I'm not sure what to think of the Pelosi thing....I guess it depends on the quality of their 30 minute conversation.....maybe the right made more out of this than they should have. And just for the record, Dom, I'm not a Democrat....even though I lean left. The only party I belong to is one that is serving beer...
