Pelosi: It's never appropriate to play politics with war or with veterans
Democrats fire back at Bush criticism

CAPITOL HILL Congressional Democrats who've been sharply critical of the administration's Iraq policy are firing back at the president's charge they're rewriting history.
Senator Edward Kennedy says it is "regrettable" that the president is attacking those "who seek the truth" about how intelligence was manipulated before the war.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid called the president's comments a return to what Reid calls "his old playbook of discredited rhetoric about the war on terror." Reid says Democrats "stand with our troops" when they question the intelligence that was used to justify the war.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says it is "never appropriate" to try to play politics with war or with veterans. She says the president is doing "a disservice" to U-S troops and the nation by trying to silence those asking questions about putting U-S forces in harm's way.
