Did Senator Bill Nelson do the wrong thing by going to Syria?

He went to Syria to meet with the president of Syria, about the war in iraq. did he undercut the president of the U.S. by doing this. The White house has denounced the visit. It is the Whitehouse policy to not enter into talks with Syria and Iran, and the President has said this many times. What do you think Nelson is up to?

Seems like an OK idea, maybe something will actually get accomplished. Richardson has talked with them before and they seem to trust him, and since he's not part of the administration maybe the U.S. will make some progress with NK while allowing the administration to maintain that it's not negotiating with them.
