As Dennis Miller said, “Pelosi is so batty she sleeps upside down.”
Daniel Halper has called attention to Nancy Pelosi’s remarkable interview with Al Hunt on the topic of Barack Obama and Israel. I’d note one comment in particular: Pelosi’s claim that President Obama “has been there [Israel] over and over again.”
Wow. I’m involved with the Emergency Committee for Israel.

Were we unjust to President Obama? Do we have to pull down the ad?
No, no, and no. Contrary to Pelosi’s apparent claim, President Obama hasn’t been to Israel over and over again. He’s never been as president, which is certainly what Pelosi implied.
