Quote of the Day: Because I told them it had to...
"He's tried this two times — it's failed twice," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) says of President Bush's escalation plan. "I asked him at the White House, 'Mr. President, why do you think this time it's going to work?' And he said, 'Because I told them it had to.'" Pelosi reportedly then asked, "Why didn't you tell them that the other two times?"
Ohhhhh snap!
