Speaker Pelosi Was Sending Messages to FARC Terrorists While Undermining Colombian Government!
The Wall Street Journal first reported on the confiscated FARC documents that implicated Rep. McGovern back in March:
The Reyes hard drive reveals an ardent effort to do business directly with the FARC by Congressman James McGovern (D., Mass.), a leading opponent of the free-trade deal. Mr. McGovern has been working with an American go-between, who has been offering the rebels help in undermining Colombia’s elected and popular government.
Mr. McGovern’s press office says the Congressman is merely working at the behest of families whose relatives are held as FARC kidnap hostages. However, his go-between’s letters reveal more than routine intervention.
Today, we find out:
Last fall, Mr. Chávez and the FARC hatched an audacious plan whereby the Venezuelan would take “proof of life” of Ms. Betancourt to French President Nicolas Sarkozy in Paris, where the plight of Ms. Betancourt was a cause célèbre. The rebels wrote that Mr. Chávez was sure French pressure for negotiations would cause President Bush to “order Uribe to allow the meeting” between Mr. Chávez and the rebels on Colombian soil, something Mr. Uribe had refused to do. The rebels reported that Mr. Chávez was “super-motivated,” because he viewed the rendezvous as a public-relations coup that would give him and the FARC “continental and world renown.”
That plan flopped, but Mr. Chavez had other cards up his sleeve. One involved Colombian Sen. Piedad Cordoba, who is currently under investigation by the Colombian attorney general for ties to the FARC. She figures prominently in the captured rebel documents, and is notoriously close to Mr. Chávez.
She met at the Venezuelan presidential palace with FARC leaders last fall. From that meeting the rebels reported that “Piedad says that Chávez has Uribe going crazy. He doesn’t know what to do. That Nancy Pelosi helps and is ready to help in the swap [hostages in exchange for captured guerrillas]. That she has designated [U.S. Congressman Jim] McGovern for this.”
If the speaker of the House was working with Ms. Cordoba in this scheme, her judgment was more than a little misguided. The rebels write that on a trip to Argentina Ms. Cordoba told them, “It doesn’t matter to me the proposal that Sarkozy has made to free Ingrid. Above all, do not liberate Ingrid.” In short, why give up such a useful pawn?
According to Gateway Pundit, “Speaker Pelosi was doing this while at the same time she refused to bring a free trade agreement with Colombia up for a vote in the US House. In fact, Pelosi took extraordinary steps to block this trade agreement with America’s closest ally in South America. ”

This Pelosi character is with the underground communist. People better watch out she is evil and will let go of secret intelligence information. She has always been suspicious to me. . . shifty eyed, or wall eyed as NY David pointed out, bi-polar, untrusting, a traitor. Money hungry and could be bribed in a heart beat, maybe already has? She is a jealous evil woman, very covert! Why do you think she lusts after Obama so much? Lookout! One good thing, she isn’t smart enough NOT to get caught.

Pelosi and McGovern ought to be tried for treason.
July 7, 2008 - 05:28 PM on July 7th, 2008
Last week I said Pelosi should be removed from the House in a straightjacket—now I think she should be removed in handcuffs. WHERE is the justice system in this Country? have we NO more law?
I guess they are far more concerned about things like the possibility of someone “outing” a CIA agent who was sitting at a desk in Virginia and had already outed herself.

Isn’t McGovern terribly old for this crap? He’s senile as Hell, and Pelosi must be his caretaker! Trouble is who taking care of who? Someone does need to take care of these two, traitors. Capiche!

Can we trade Pelosi for a few coffee beans? I hear Colombia has some good coffee growers. Where’s Juan Valdez when you need him?
Of course if we were in Colombia, we could have Pelosi offed for about $5 and a candy bar.

Half the Colombian government — including Uribe — has ties with paramilitary groups who are far more affluent in the narcotics industry than the FARC are.
Colombia used to have great Coffee growers until the market was flooded by foreign goods and those campesinos then turned to coca farming as that’s the only thing they get paid a living wage for. Not to mention the fumigation of coca fields has spilled over into legitimate farms and polluted the rivers. Thank the U.S. government for those wonderful ideas. Free trade, yeah, that works great.

we need a para-military here in the USA just to keep honest and pro-america those that are elected or appointed. Fascism is very alive and needs to be killed off before it is too late!
