Of course this is not going to be reported as they wanted to make sure the ones the tortured admitted to everything they wanted to place in the report that way the american people will not have to be told that it was a inside job. IT was the US Government that was responsible for the 9/11 attacks not a terrorist.
I have been reviewing a lot of Nancy Pelosi's takes on immigration, abortion, religion and so forth and I must say that it is one mixed up mess. Is she the ultra Democrat without thought for what the law says? It seems she runs based on some sort of unseen policy that fits agendas and not what is written.

I am still trying to figure out how she got to be the speaker of house. I think if something happens to the president and vice president we are going to be in a even bigger mess. She does not stand for anything and then turns around and stands for everything. She is like a yo-yo up and down here and there on every single issue. I get a headache trying to understand why she is so wishy-washy.
She sent an aide to the briefing, so she is saying she was not directly told about it by the people doing the briefing. It is kind of like Bill Clinton saying it depends on what IS means during his testimony in the Monica stuff. Selective reality at best. But her aide did tell her directly that waterboarding was going on. She was told that enhanced methods were to be used in a briefing that she did attend, but of course she is now unclear as to what that meant but was assured that it was legal.
The problem is that a chunck of the democratic base wants to go on a Bush witch hunt and Pelosi's knowledge and by her response, agreement, is underminding this attempt. The just need to let Bush go...he is gone...he is in Texas and isnt bothering you any more...let it go!
I bet if we waterboarded her for about 3-5 minutes she would confess! Edited: Vincenzo on 15th May, 2009 - 5:03am

I think we should water board all of congress for 5 to 6 minutes. That way they know exactly what they are authorizing for the CIA and others to do to these prisoners. I am sure they would confess to all sorts of stuff and that water boarding would soon stop being a approved method of getting information.
CIA chief stands up against Pelosi
CIA Director Leon Panetta yesterday rejected House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's charge that the agency misled her about its use of coercive interrogation methods, escalating a controversy that has dogged the speaker for weeks and intensifying a debate over Bush administration policies that the Obama administration has tried to avoid.

With all that is happening I call to all US democrats. Remove her from her position as she should not be in this position if she can not admit to the truth of what she was told. She needs to step down but I think she likes her position and power too much to do so.
