Syria claims to have played a key role in the British hostages release. Did Hillary Clinton send Pelosi on a secret mission of diplomacy? Can the Democrats claim a key role in the hostages release? Or was her visit simply an innocent effort to raise campaign funds similar to the Chinese donations to Bill Clinton?

There was nothing innocent about Bill Clinton and Chinese donations.
This netted us the one sided trade agreement with China.
And technology to the Chinese.
All men are created equal, but what they do after that point puts them on a sliding scale.

Orchestrated by none other than Sandy Burglar.

Syria is a proxy state of Iran. I find it difficult to believe they had any positive effect on Iran's bellicosity.

How does Hillary Clinton send the Speaker of the House on a "secret mission of diplomacy"? Or, is this just sour grapes because diplomacy actually worked and this event did not result in an excuse to attack Iran?

Another one of your misleading thread titles. It should have read "Syria claims hostage role." You need to get out more.
Why is there always money for war, but none for education?

You mean Pilosi lying is diplomacy?
I see the Democrats are no different than the Republicans still.

Sour grapes? This was an orchestrated attempt at upstaging and dimishing the prestige of the President of the United State and the Secretary of State. And she blew it!! Let's see how Ms. San Francisco handles the issue of the status of women in Saudi Araba when she visits. Which is why the success of our policy in Iraq is so important. If we succeed in creating a democracy in Iraq. the pressures on the House of Saud will be immense. The idea is to bring these people out of the middle ages.

Wow. Not only do you hate Democrats, now you get to decide that we should determine that it's time for us to decide how other people in the "Middle Ages" should live. It's so comforting to know that we have your perfection in our midst. Your arrogance knows no bounds, does it?
