Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee Tom Lantos (D-CA), who also traveled to Syria with Speaker Pelosi last week, has some choice words for those who are now attacking their trip.
LANTOS: The administration's criticism is particularly pathetic, because two days before we went to Damascus, three Republican colleagues were there, meeting with Assad. We had a distinguished Republican in our delegation. And two days after our delegation, another Republican member of Congress visited with Assad. So if this is not hypocrisy, I don't know what is.
