Nancy Pelosi Can't Handle An Honest Question

What happens when a prominent Democrat gets a real question? Accusations of bias. Here's an excerpt:
CBS White House reporter Jim Axelrod mentioned to Pelosi that, come November 2008, the number of American troops in Iraq likely will be the same as in November 2006, when Democrats were swept into power. Then, he asked, "How do you view your stewardship of Congress as anything other than a failure to make the president change course?"
A fair question, right? Apparently not:
Pelosi was instantly taken aback. "What a lovely objective question on the part of the press!" she remarked.
Read the whole thing - it's pretty amusing. You can tell she's used to the softballs lobbed right over the plate from friendly MSM-types. Think about it this way - if these people can't even handle a moderately tough question from a reporter, how are they supposed to handle a legitimate threat from a nuclear-armed crazy dictator halfway around the world?

There's my two cents.
