No it doesn't surprise me since it doesn't matter if we are winning or losing in Iraq or what General Patraes says. The path was chosen before he took over in Iraq and before we committed to the surge. Her party is run by the far left and at the end of the day she has to focus on doom and gloom because that appeases the far left that got her in there in the first place. She has to make it look like she is supporting the troops so she doesn't piss off the country, while making it certain that they cannot win (pissing off the far left). By not meeting with the General it's easier to keep on the doom & gloom train.

Your president bush sent Rice to Iran to try and end his foolish war, so don't talk about kowtowing to Dictators...
She probably won't meet with him because he is a yes man for bush. Say, why did bush get rid of other Generals who disagreed with him on how he is handling the war, and sided with Petraeus?
Well?

Actually, Pelosi couldn't make that, but tried to arrange a private meeting with Petraeus. Not only was she willing to talk to him, but was willing to meet with him 1 on 1. They couldn't work that out, but sopke on the phone for 30 minutes. That's right, she was willing to go out of her way to meet with him.
Kind of the opposite of how you characterize it.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but maybe you should have the facts in hand before trying to smear someone. This is a lot like the so-called "demands" for a plane that she never made.

Another brainwashed con. Three Republicans went to Sudan before Pelosi. Another Republican went after she left. Are they all traitors too? Pelosi has met Petraeus.
Stop believing all the lies from right-wing radio.

As usual you make up stuff because you don't have the facts. It was a bi-partisan trip to Syria and she did meet with Petraeus.

There were RePUGNANTicans that met with the Syria Dictator as well.
Why are you silent on that? Could it be that you and your croonies are dishonest people with no integrity?
_________________________________
Republican Rep. David Hobson (OH) was also on that trip. But in an interview published in the Washington Post today, he states that he never received any of the attacks that were thrown at Pelosi:
“Before we left, we met with the State Department people and nobody told us not to go,” Hobson said, adding that none of his Republican colleagues broached the subject, either. “Nobody ever called me to say, ‘Why are you going to Syria with those people?’“
Despite his attacks on Pelosi, Boehner has repeatedly refused to criticize Hobson for going to Syria. His spokesman recently confirmed that “there’s no tension or hard feelings there whatsoever” between Boehner and Hobson over the trip. Similarly, the lawmakers who criticized Pelosi were silent on similar congressional trips led by fellow Republicans.
Hobson has also defended Pelosi against his colleagues’ attacks, noting that she “did not engage in any bashing of Bush in any meeting I was in and she did not in any meeting I was in bash the policies as it relates to Syria.” He recently sent a box of chocolates to Pelosi to thank her for including him in the trip and said, “If asked, I would go again. I thought it was a good trip.”

You can't make peace with anyone but your enemies. Then again, but that reasoning, maybe she should talk to Petraeus, who is nothing but another stooge who tells Bush exactly what he wants to hear, and tells us exactly what Bush wants us to hear. If I were President, the man would be relieved of duty, court-martialed, and dishonorably discharged for the harm he has already done to our troops.
