On this day:

Pelosi: "There haven't been gains" in Iraq

Politico:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said twice Sunday that Iraq “is a failure,” adding that President Bush’s troop surge has “not produced the desired effect.”

“The purpose of the surge was to create a secure time for the government of Iraq to make the political change to bring reconciliation to Iraq,” Pelosi said on CNN’s “Late Edition.” “They have not done that.” ...

“There haven't been gains, Wolf,” the speaker replied. “The gains have not produced the desired effect, which is the reconciliation of Iraq. This is a failure. This is a failure."
As I mentioned yesterday, the jihadis themselves tell a different story, as does the U.S. military. Is Ms. Pelosi taking her talking points from Baghdad Bob?
