Pelosi Denies Knowing About Waterboarding; Paper Trail Contradicts
Big Government In Your Wallet ^ | 5/10/09 | Kelly Estes

Posted on 05/10/2009 6:43:59 AM PDT by StopBigGovt

Pelosi was wide-eyed as she replied to a reporter's question on the interrogation method briefings: "We were not, I repeat renot [sic] told that waterboarding or any other of these other enhanced interrogation methods were used."

The paper trail from the CIA says otherwise.

Was House Speaker Nancy Pelosi lying or forgetful -- or is she the only one involved being honest -- about knowing about EITs, including waterboarding?

Every reasonable person knew that Pelosi was lying the minute she opened her big fat stupid mouth. Liberals are notorious liars and bullies.

She is always wide eyed because she cannot close her eyes due to eyelid surgery I suspect.

Nutjob Nancy's world...

(from different source)

"We were not — I repeat — were not told that waterboarding or any of these other enhanced interrogation methods were used."

In a statement issued Friday, Pelosi said: "Of the 40 CIA briefings to Congress reported recently in the press, I was only briefed once, on September 4, 2002, as I have previously stated.

"As I said in my statement of December 9, 2007:

"'I was briefed on interrogation techniques the administration was considering using in the future. The administration advised that legal counsel for both the CIA and the Department of Justice had concluded that the techniques were legal.'

"I had no further briefings on the techniques.




Pop!


(back to reality)

CIA Director Leon Panetta, in cover letters sent with the memo to the House and Senate Intelligence committees, says the information "is drawn from the past files of the CIA and represents MFR (memorandum for the record) completed at the time and notes that summarized the best recollections of those individuals."



Sorry Nutjob, but your last stretch job must have been stitched a bit too tight and the short of it is no one believes a damn word you are saying. Some of the Commie News Network puppets are bobbing their heads up and down but it is doubtful they believe you either.

You can "- I repeat -" all you like.

You are sooo over.

Was she lying or forgetful? You have to remember, she isn’t the sharpest card in the deck. You get her away from her talking points and all you get is a blank sheet of paper.

The political machine that is Nancy Pelosi, or any of these career poticians, cannot be allowed to dodge responsibility because they “are being honest” when their feet are finally and rarely held to the fire.

Pelosi does and should know exactly what she is doing and she has a well paid staff to support her in her lies, propaganda and stupidity.

I am in agreement with Keyes on voting every incumbant out in 2010 no matter flavor of moderate left or socialist. They have failed.

It really looks that way. They really seem to be more into protecting their jobs than protecting their country. I flush would really send a signal that the people have had enough.

We are at a tipping point in our nation. We will choose our certain demise if socialism is chosen or a massive struggle to greatness if we choose the other path.

Socialism does not breed wealth, it consumes it.

It’s clear that the Democratic party are a bunch of charlatans and thugs. That’s not in question. The question is whether the Republicans can ‘out’ them to the general public in ‘10 and ‘12. So far most are more concerned about hurting their feelings.
