House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday accused the CIA of misleading Congress about its use of enhanced interrogation techniques used on terror detainees.
"Yes I am saying the CIA was misleading the Congress and at the same time the (Bush) administration was misleading the Congress on weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, to which I said that this intelligence doesn't support the imminent threat," Pelosi said at her weekly news conference.
"Every step of the way the administration was misleading the Congress and that is the issue and that's why we need a truth commission," she added.
Under a barrage of questioning, Pelosi also again adamantly insisted that she was not aware that waterboarding or other enhanced interrogation techniques were being used on terrorism suspects and
"I am telling you they told me they approved these and said they wanted to use them but said they were not using waterboarding," she said.

Get ahead of the problem...The problem is that complicity in something you deem as a "Crime" makes you a criminal!

Without a negative adjective in there, "intelligence" and "Pelosi" cannot be in the same sentence.

Re: Pelosi Accuses CIA of Misleading Congress on Waterboarding
Agreed Ranger K.Ingraham. Maybe she and the other morons that let our country get into the mess it is in should be interrogated to see how much they knew about it beforehand. And as for the lack of "weapons of mass destruction"? Give me a break, what do they think they were using on their own people? Happy gas?

Re: Pelosi Accuses CIA of Misleading Congress on Waterboarding
She is such a liar, you could see it in her eyes during the press conference. Then she made some comment about having a war to fight and being busy. Nancy Pelosi never wore a uniform and she sure as shit never fought a war.

Sorry Ranger RRDTm3, I was refering to the present state of the banks and housing market. They act as if they knew nothing about the situation untill it was too late. Talk about misleading.

This whole enhanced interrogation thing is terrible. I believe that she's complicit in this. But instead of debating the legality of it, we'll get name calling and grandstanding from both douche-bag political parties.

Re: Pelosi Accuses CIA of Misleading Congress on Waterboarding
The Demoncrats made this a huge issue to discredit the POTUS and now they are slowly being bled by it. So here we are 100+ of Obama and what has happened so far?another damn texan wrote:This whole enhanced interrogation thing is terrible. I believe that she's complicit in this.

1. The POTUS has executed a masterful 180 turn on his support of Gay marriage!
2. The PTOUS is slowly removing his support of Criminal trials for GITMO detainees!
3. The POTUS is throwing money (not his own) at companies that are in terminal meltdown!
Did I miss anything?
Change will never happen in a bloated political system that is weighted down by Ideologues.

She needs another face lift and more botox injections. In her latest appearance, she not only acted like a clown, but looked like one.
