Press Releases Contact: Brendan Daly/Nadeam Elshami 202-226-7616 For Immediate Release 05/15/2009 Pelosi Statement on Panetta Message to CIA Employees

Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued the following statement today in response to a message today to CIA Employees from Director Leon Panetta:

“We all share great respect for the dedicated men and women of the intelligence community who are deeply committed to the safety and security of the American people. My criticism of the manner in which the Bush Administration did not appropriately inform Congress is separate from my respect for those in the intelligence community who work to keep our country safe. What is important now is to be united in our commitment to ensuring the security of our country; that, and how Congress exercises its oversight responsibilities, will continue to be my focus as we move forward.”

But she said yesterday, clearly:

Q: Madame Speaker, just to be clear, you are accusing the CIA of lying to you in September 2002?

A: Yes, of misleading the Congress of the United States. Misleading the Congress of the United States.

Today its Bush's fault..!

“will continue to be my focus as we move forward”. Translation:” I’m taking the weekend off and so is the news about what I’ve said all week long. Monday morning I will be a non-issue”.

'...What is important now is to be united in our commitment to ensuring the security of our country; that, and how Congress exercises its oversight responsibilities, will continue to be my focus as we move forward.”

In other words, what Peloski is really saying is this: "...Time to forget about everything I've said, and let's move forward. There is no news here, so the news press needs to go back to attacking the republicans, not me."

this is desperation. and it’s very inconvenient for her that just a few hours before she released her latest lie, BHO basically endorsed yet another feature of the bush administration’s war policy (military tribunals).

Wow. This skank Pelosi is flipping and flopping like nothing I have ever seen. Of course, desperation time calls for childishly blaming Bush. Talk about somebody who is in over their head. Scary.

So Nancy, were you lying then (yesterday) or are you lying now (today).... do you even know what lying is?

What a simpleton horses ass.... she’s not even good at being a lib.

I wonder, is some democrat waterboarding this hag to get her to keep changing her story?????

Absolutely shameless, with no redeeming character traits whatsoever. In her case, ugly isn’t merely skin deep, it goes straight to the bone.

Nope.

Reid is getting her to continuously change her story by waterboarding her in his basement.

“She may need a permit to dig a hole this deep.”

The good news is that she will strike oil soon as deep as she is going. Our nations energy needs will be fortified.

Nancy is after all just trying to help our country.

No Nanc it doesn’t work that way. You said that the “CIA mislead you” since it was the CIA giving the breifings. Beating GWB has pretty much reached the end of the line so find yourself another dead horse to use, K?

Sounds like perhaps Madame Piglosi might be reconsidering her harsh statement and suddenly realized what kind of damage she has done to herself?

Hey Nanc...you must learn the first rule of holes. Stop digging!

(oh, hell, keep on digging! It’s so fun to watch :)
