The British don't torture?

The London Metropolitan Police Department has been accused of using waterboarding techniques to get information from suspects. Nothing is for certain, but didn't Obama say that the British don't torture?

Going through history, the British are known for being very ruthless, but Obama apparently has never opened a history book.

If this is found to be true. This will prove that the United States is not the only country who has waterboarded to receive important information. To be true, the U.S. has only waterboarded three persons at Gitmo.

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.
