If these people want to travel a bit for their precious photo ops to friendly countries fine.....if their mission is against the Executive Branches foreign policy that's bullshit. Pelosi's visit was bullshit along with your examples.
During the time of Hasterts trip, the nation was way to busy wondering if Bill had dipped a Presidential cigar and the dems didn't want to give the impression that they were creating a distraction. Just more partisan bullshit!
Have a good one!:s4:

I don't neccessarily agree with the way Pelosi did what she did, but I can understand it. The Bush administration's attempts at diplomacy have been ridiculous. He acts like the rest of the world is little children and he's the (unfit)parent. "I'm the boss, so do what I say, god damn it, or you'll be punished! Fuck off if you don't agree."
What Bush has done to our image abroad can be compared to what Katrina did to New Orleans. Whoever is in power after 2008 will have a lot of international damage control to do. The Dems sense that they're going to be the ones doing it, so they're just starting early.

[Mr. Assad] knows that," Mrs. Perino said.

(1) reliance by the United States on further diplomatic or other peaceful means alone either (A) will not adequately protect the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq or (B) is not likely to lead to enforcement of all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq; and
(2) acting pursuant to this joint resolution is consistent with the United States and other countries continuing to take the necessary actions against international terrorist and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001.

Read the highlighted area once and remember that thing called "Food For Oil". According to the provision you pointed out it was pretty clear that the people of the U.N. were NOT going to do any action based on the fact that they had other motives.
Next, IF the White House was in violation of any resolution then it's up to congress to proceed with an impeachment in accordance to our Constitution.
So how does that make me a hypocrit or did you just have to get your rocks off?
