Bush raps Pelosi's trip to Syria

WASHINGTON - President Bush criticized House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's trip to Syria on Tuesday, saying it sends mixed signals to the region and to the government of President Bashar Assad.

"There have been a lot of people who have gone to see President Assad: some Americans, but a lot of European leaders, high-ranking officials. And yet we haven't seen action," Bush told reporters at a Rose Garden news conference. "He hasn't responded."

Bush said that Assad had not reined in violent elements of militant groups Hamas and Hezbollah as requested by the international community, had acted to destabilize the democratically elected government of Lebanon from Syria.

and was allowing "foreign fighters" to move into Iraq

"Sending delegations hasn't worked. It's just simply been counterproductive," Bush said.

The president spoke shortly after Pelosi, leading a congressional delegation, arrived in Damascus as part of a tour of the Middle East.

All bush does is criticize - can't he do anything positive at all? Why does he hate people who try to do something? oh, because he is completely ineffectual?
