::1) Dems of all stripes defended Pelosi (not just the the "extreme liberal" ones), '''and''' some ''Republicans''(!) did, too.  2)"Our message was Bush's message" clearly means that Pelosi didn't say anything contrary to administration policy or to embarrass the president.  Or, to phrase it another way, she and the president are on the same page.  She continued, "It became clear to President Assad that even though we have our differences in the United States, there is no division between the president and the Congress and the Democrats on the message we wanted him to receive."  3) She said this in Portugal not because she was trying to hide, but because that's where she was when the reporter reached her by telephone.  --[[User:WJThomas|WJThomas]] 23:16, 3 May 2007 (EDT)
