The Bush Cultists have so little to run on that they have to LIE about Pelosi to try and rally their base and make her the "Big Bad." Kevin Drum finds Thomas Sowell at his worst.

As regards the war on terrorism and the terrorists’ war against the west, Nancy Pelosi has opposed having international phone calls to and from terrorists monitored by American intelligence agencies.

Drum explains: This is, flatly, a lie. Pelosi, like many Democrats, opposes NSA surveillance of American residents without a warrant. That is all she opposes. Period.
