Strategic Indifference (Or, Banking on Arm-Chair Quarterbacking)

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.

In a continued effort to DO nothing great while hoping some will accidentally assume their greatness in light of certainly-astute hindsight observations (read: "wild-assed criticism of Bush Administration policy and practice"), the über-Left "leadership" is pinning its hopes to - as usual - DOing nothing, while setting themselves up to criticize anything.

(At press time, I could neither confirm or deny whether the Bush family pets actually do their business on the White House lawn; however, there seems to be no absence of Dean and Pelosi-appointed news reporters waiting at the scene - anxious to exploit this national travesty).




To be clear, however, party leadership now asserts that intra-party discord is suddenly a strength.

So - riddle me this, Batman - How many engines driving in different directions does it take to make a train travel efficiently? Or, is Pelosi just trying to cover every base so she can eventually say her party had it right all along?
