COMMENTS: AFTER THE FACT

NBC's Chip Reid characterized Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Harry Reid as "highly perturbed when they left the meeting--they were consulted by the President only after the speech was written."

NBC's Reid agreed: "Non-binding votes opposing any troop increase are expected to pass."
