Pelosi: I have nothing more to say

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has nothing more to say on the CIA, waterboarding and torture. Let's see if she can keep her promise.



IN THE NEWS:
Associated Press: Pelosi: Nothing more to say on her CIA allegation

RNC compares Pelosi to Pussy Galore?

What is the Republican National Committee thinking? Comparing the 69-year old Nancy Pelosi to Goldfinger's Pussy Galore? What is with the sophomoric humor? The commercial only needed to show Pelosi caught in her own web of lies. I understand the connection of the CIA to James Bond because there is no single song from an American spy film that would be as noticeable.

Pelosi may be "evil" in the eyes of many, but she is not a "Pussy Galore."

I just hope the RNC got permission to use the song and images from EON Productions.

Below is the RNC advertisement:

CIA, Pelosi at odds over "truth"

CIA director Leon Panetta has told his fellow CIA employees that the intelligence agency told the truth about the enhanced interrogation techniques to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Politico published the following from Panetta...

He said: We didn't mislead Congress; stay focused on your job.

Panetta's note was sent to reporters via the CIA press office. Here's the key graph:

"Let me be clear: It is not our policy or practice to mislead Congress. That is against our laws and our values. As the Agency indicated previously in response to Congressional inquiries, our contemporaneous records from September 2002 indicate that CIA officers briefed truthfully on the interrogation of Abu Zubaydah, describing “the enhanced techniques that had been employed.” Ultimately, it is up to Congress to evaluate all the evidence and reach its own conclusions about what happened."

Today, Pelosi made more conflicting statements about waterboarding. She continues to lie about what she "knew."


Also, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs (the best ever) dodged a question about the White House's stance on Pelosi's opinion. Fox News' Major Garret asked the question, one of the few curious journalists in the press corp.

Dems unite in attacking CIA

The Democrats don't care about law or common sense. They are out for their own best interests and attacking the Bush administration, as well as the Central Intelligence Agency. Now they are saying that the CIA may have broken the law.

Let's talk about breaking laws. The Dems do that every day. What exactly is the US Constitution for? Shredding? Oh, yeah, it's the law of the land. Look at it once in a while.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi got flustered today when she spoke about what she "knew" about the CIA and waterboarding.

Pelosi fires back at CIA

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is now accusing the Central Intelligence Agency of misleading Congress about enhanced interrogation techniques.

She is practically today's version of a "Benedict Arnold." She is out for her own interests. She hates the United States Military and she despises the CIA. She would be happy if they both were eliminated.

Pelosi knew about harsh interrogations

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi needs to resign. She is a liar and a cheat. She claims she did not know about the enhanced interrogation techniques, such as waterboarding. She was briefed by the CIA.

All Pelosi and her fellow Democrats want to do is to destroy any positive legacy of President George W. Bush.

Obama takes power from the CIA to make us safer?

President Barack Obama is again following campaign promises. He is now taking power away from the Central Intelligence Agency. He also allowed the release of memos from Gitmo so the terrorists know what to expect. Or, used to know. We no longer do those things anymore and while we are at it, lets just tell all enemies of the United States our plans. We need to be nicer.

Obama speaks at CIA Headquarters:
