HOW AWFUL IS PELOSI? SHE'S TO THE LEFT OF FRANCE

JPOST:

France circulated a draft Security Council statement that expresses "serious concern" at mounting reports of illegal arms transfers across the Lebanon-Syria border and authorizes an independent mission to assess how the frontier is being monitored. The proposed presidential statement, sent to council members late Thursday and obtained Friday, welcomes the Lebanese government's "determination" to prevent arms transfer, which are banned under a UN resolution that ended last summer's Second Lebanon War.

It reiterates the council's call on the Syrian government "to take further measures to reinforce controls at the border," and it urges all countries, especially Syria and Iran, to enforce the arms embargo.

SURE, SURE, SURE: FRANCE AND THE UNSC ARE MERELY THREATENING TO WARN SYRIA WITH HARSH WORDS - (LIKE THAT HILARIOUS BLIX SCENE IN TEAM AMERICA! NSFW - LANGUAGE.)

BUT, FRANCE'S STATEMENT IS STILL STERNER AND HAS MORE MORAL CLARITY THAN PELOSI'S RECENT ASS(AD)-LICKING SESSION WITH BASHAR.

SHE COULDN'T GET ANY WORSE - EXCEPT PERHAPS BY JOINING THE BAATHISTS! (THAT'S NOT SUCH A BIG LEAP, EITHER: BAATHISTS - LIKE DEMOCRATS - ARE SOCIALISTS.)
