WASHINGTON – New questions surfaced Wednesday about the accuracy of a CIA document meant to settle who in Congress knew about severe interrogation methods approved by the Bush administration.

Three new errors appeared to emerge in the CIA's matrix of 40 congressional briefings on so-called enhanced interrogation techniques. Those techniques include waterboarding, a form of simulated drowning, which President Barack Obama has called torture.

The CIA acknowledged one of the errors but continued to stand by its version of events in the other two cases.

So the MSM expects us to believe that even after 40 briefings, and Ilsa the She-Bitch still didn't know about waterboarding, even from second-hand accounts.

This needs to be investigated now!
Who knew, and when did they know?
The accusation that the CIA lied to members of Congress during classified briefings must be investigated due to the seriousness of the charge.

Americans have the right to know who is lying, the CIA or the Speaker of the House.

Oh yeah, there might be some errors, but you know when the Speaker of the House shows up.

We do not need more trial by the media, we need people under oath, and soon.

Pelosi needs to do prison time if she commits perjury.... and she will.

Exactly, she opened the door, raised the issue. It now must be settled.
