thanks

I think every Republican should announce that they too knew and approved of the interrogations. They should demand that they be part of the show trials and inquest. I’d like to hear them say that they would do it again if any terrorist group attacked us and killed innocent civilians.

Have you got the link to the previous post?...thanks

Jay Rockefeller sat in 35 INTELLIGENCE MEETINGS TALKING ABOUT INTERROGATIONS AND WATERBOARDING!!

Nancy Pelosi KNEW....so did DI FEINSTEIN!!

A CIVIL WAR will break out if they try to destroy people who kept us SAFE!!! A FREAKING CIVIL WAR!

Americans ONLY agree on FAIRNESS and this fiasco would NOT BE FAIR!

[kellynla]

The next tea party was going to be July 4 but we may need to hold a protest a lot sooner than that. Or a nationwide strike or something.

Maybe the left wants a war. They tear down all morality, still not satisfied, still attacking daily, it seems a war with the aim of tearing down the country might not be that far fetched.

The way you reworded this title it makes is sound like this story is only about PETER HOEKSTRA. It would have been clearer if you posted it as

Congress Knew About the Interrogations (by PETER HOEKSTRA (R-MI))

[xkaydet65]

Hoekstra said this AM on Bennett that the records of most of these congressional briefs were threadbare or non existent. That being the case, you could put Pelosi under oath and she would still deny she knew anything abiout the interrogation briefs.

[Ann Archy]

GREAT POINT!!! He THINKS he is Abe Lincoln.......VERY interesting.

[kellynla]

yea, well I hope I’m perfect like you in my next life. LMAO

Perhaps we need an investigation not of the enhanced interrogation program, but of what the Obama administration may be doing to endanger the security our nation has enjoyed because of interrogations and other antiterrorism measures implemented since Sept. 12, 2001.

We can dream.

Great idea and if they had any brains they would. They should stand up and say "We're PROUD we stopped terrorists from killing Americans. We're proud of our country. While terrorists are torturing Americans by cutting off their heads and killing them, our enemies are worried about us pouring water on their face."

.it just may be what he wants”...

I’m sure the powers that be are looking for ANY good reason to fill those camps with government objectors.

Obama and 9/11: bow to Saudi king, prosecute American Administration...

[Eagle Eye]

I like your approach on that! IOW, step up and dare them to take action instead of the typical cowering in the face of a threat.

Have them show pride in national security matters instead of somehow inadvertantly admitting they did wrong.
