Pelosi briefed on waterboarding in '02 [UPDATED]
Nancy Pelosi denies knowing U.S. officials used waterboarding — but GOP operatives are pointing to a 2007 Washington Post story which describes an hour-long 2002 briefing in which Pelosi was told about enhanced interrogation techniques in graphic detail.
Two unnamed officials told the paper that Pelosi, then a member of the Democratic minority, didn't raise substantial objections.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is pushing back on GOP charges that she knew about waterboarding for years and did nothing.
Pelosi says she was briefed by Bush administration officials on the legal justification for using waterboarding — but that they never followed through on promises to inform her when they actually began using "enhanced" interrogation techniques.
Of course Pelosi doesn't know anything about what the CIA was doing.
(sounds like Christopher Dodd and "Barney" Frank not knowing what was going on)
Hog wash! What is the definition of torture: Infliction of severe physical pain as a means of punishment or coercion.
The CIA did not pull finger nails out, did not burn them with cigarettes.
They got waterboarded. And there was a doctor with them. That may have been the first shower they had in years.
Why is it always the Liberals that want the US to stop wiretaps on suspected foreign enemies and complain
when the CIA uses enhanced interrogation techniques?
If the US had another terrorist attract after 9-11 the Democrats would have impeached Bush for not doing enough. It make the US weak.
How soon they forget 9-11.
- Ask yourself this: would you torture someone to save your child?
- How about someone else child? Think about it!
DETROIT - The Treasury Department is preparing a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing for Chrysler that could come as soon as next week, people with direct knowledge of the action said Thursday. Why is it Chrysler and GM have to reorganize, close plants, lay off workers, fire CEO's. And than maybe bankruptcy.
But Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and AIG and the rest financial services get bail out money and nobody loses
their job, nobody loses their pension or health care.
Why just the auto industry?
Did anyone notice almost all of Obama's people drive foreign cars. Why do Liberals drive foreign cars.
Obama Earth Day Flights Burned More Than 9,000 Gallons Of Fuel.
AP report: the percentage of Americans that think the country is on the right track rose to 48% in March as compared to 40% in February.
36% of those polled were Democrats
The same media gave Bush low approval ratings,
even when the economy was at a high point.
It is like they have an agenda.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, testifying in Congress, defended the right to abortion worldwide and the Obama administration's decision to finance family planning overseas.
Why do the American tax payers have to pay for worldwide abortion?
