4/5     Ye who be so offended by Pelosi's trip, did this bother you too?

        \_ What about Nixon's secret negotiations with North Vietnam? Or
           Reagan's secret negotiations with Iran?
           \_ You could argue that Nixon visiting China doesn't count.
              He is the Executive Branch and is in charge of foreign
              policy.
              \_ No, I mean Nixon encouraging South Vietnam's President
                 to stay away from peace talks with North Vietnam in 68,
                 while he was still a candidate. He was afraid that a
                 peace treaty would be signed and that the Democrats
                 would win the election. Sorry about confusing North
                 and South in my earlier post, I had my history confused.
           \_ Or Franklin's secret negotiations and backdoor deals with
              France?
              \_ Wasn't that guy some kind of terrorist? Should we take
                 him off the $50?
