Nancy Pelosi Finally Shuts Up About Waterboarding; But Where is the Investigation?

Lying

  Yesterday Nancy Pelosi made her smartest decision when it comes to the CIA and waterboarding since we learned that she knew about and was okay with the CIA waterboarding terrorists– she said nothing. She finally shut up.

  I have made the statement that I’m going to make on this,” she told reporters at a Capitol Hill news conference. “I don’t have anything more to say about it. I stand by my comment

  But while she finally stopped running her mouth she did say that she stands by her comment that the CIA misled her and other members of congress. Her newly found silence doesn’t answer the nagging question that must be asked and still needs to be answered. Why is she and her fellow Democrats against investigating the CIA? If the CIA truly lied to Nancy Pelosi and other members of congress that means the CIA committed a crime and  the Democrats should be gung ho on the idea of investigating the CIA for an alleged crime against congress.

   After all this would be their chance to finally nail the Bush administration. This is something that the far left has been waiting for and this should be the perfect opportunity. Yet congress has decided not to investigate the CIA. They should be livid that the CIA lied to them in order to justify the illegal torture of people if that is indeed what happened.

  Obviously that is not what happened or there would be a full court press put on to bring these people before congress and make them testify on the issue of torture and the accusations of lying. The only one who has been lying is Nancy Pelosi. When she held her press conference and told the whole country that she was misled by the CIA she was lying. She needed to take the heat off of herself and in doing so she libeled the CIA. Now Democrats are in full retreat on the issue of investigating the CIA and it is because they know what will be uncovered of they do. Congress knew about waterboarding all along and they approved of it.

  They should be proud of that decision, it was the right thing to do but they have spent so many years bashing the Bush administration over this that they have to pretend that they can claim the moral high ground when in truth they were right there in the swamp the whole time.

  But now the truth has come out and this all started because of the current president’s stupidity in releasing a few selected documents that he thought would hurt the Bush administration. It has come back to bite his own party.

  Nancy Pelosi levied some serious charges against the CIA and I want a full investigation. The people deserve it. If the CIA lied to congress than they need to be punished, if Nancy Pelosi lied about the CIA she needs to be exposed.

  Congress found the time to hold hearings on steroid use in baseball and more recently congress had time to hold hearings on whether college football should have playoff series, but now when they hear accusations that they were lied to about possible torture they don’t have the time? Isn’t possible human rights violations a much more important issue?

  I think their unwillingness to investigate Nancy Pelosi’s claims tell us all that we need to know; the CIA did not lie to congress but Nancy Pelosi lied to the American people. Congress knows who knew what, and they know when it was known. They just don’t want us to know that they all knew.

  Nancy Pelosi owes the CIA an apology, she then needs to resign.
