Pelosi Calls Afghan Karzai "unworthy partner"


Today elitist Nancy Pelosi has thrown Afghan President Karzi into the meat grinder. Besides this, back in October Obama opened up his bottomless checkbook to the Taliban. Also stating that in the future, Taliban members will be allowed into the Afghan government. Is it clear whose side the left is on?



Pelosi calls Afghan Karzai "unworthy partner"

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Afghan President Hamid Karzai is an "unworthy partner" who does not deserve a big boost either in U.S. troops or civilian aid, U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi said.

Pelosi, a skeptic on sending more troops to Afghanistan, also said in an interview with National Public Radio aired on Friday that there was not strong support among her fellow Democrats in Congress for "any big ramp-up of troops" to oppose resurgent Taliban forces.

She told NPR she had asked fellow Democrats to give President Barack Obama room to decide his Afghan strategy, which is expected to be announced in the coming weeks. Once Obama, also a Democrat, announces his decision, lawmakers would "not be shy" about responding, she said.

"The president of Afghanistan has proven to be an unworthy partner. We cannot fund a mission where we don't have a reliable partner and where whatever civilian investments we want to make, which are so necessary, will be diverted for a corrupt purpose," Pelosi told NPR News' Morning Edition.

"How can we ask the American people to pay a big price in lives and limbs and also in dollars if we don't have a connection to a reliable partner?"

Pelosi's comments came a day after Karzai was sworn in for his second five-year term. He has faced tough pressure from Western leaders to clamp down on widespread corruption and replace former guerrilla leaders and cronies with able technocrats in his new government.

This is actually each player's host. Finding a map might be difficult, but it is worthwhile. I suggest saving the EXP coupons all you're ready to with this because the area type does not burn off becasue it is very common. Anyway, you did it. You got your mule to anything, Maplestory M Mesos for sale or 150, or 200 you were attempting to get to. Even broke bitches need legion mules.Just feel free to leave your thoughts in the comment area if you have any decent suggestions/opinions about my coaching, also I would love to consummate this guide. And I'm sure that all of you have known that CBT two will arrive on 18th July, which means we will begin to offer MapleStory 2 Mesos in the exact same time let's anticipate it.I recently made it to ground 33 on tower of ounces with my ghost (3 tablet slots, looking to hit flooring 40 after I unlock the 4th pill slot now!) ; nonetheless, I felt like my mobbing was quite poor in tower of oz, particularly in stages where you are required to kill 200+ creatures that spawn in tilted and spaced ledges. I was using Showdown with prenombre and the phantom teleport ability of buying MapleStory 2 Mesos but I feel as that I could use a different 4th job skill to maximize efficiency. I stole Chain Lightning yesterday (I pick that over Cannon Bazooka because some maps are not flat at all and I believe Bazooka has a really really long delay despite its amazing range) but not got around to testing it yet. ? Doesn't even need to be 4th occupation abilities!
