Nancy Pelosi’s notorious “I never said I didn’t know the CIA was waterboarding I only said I didn’t know about it when they said I knew about it” press conference wasn’t quite as bad as lot of people are saying. (You can view it here.)
Unfortunately, Nancy’s been lapped by Harry “Yes, I am a goddamn coward” Reid, who practically shits his britches at the thought of terrorists being imprisoned on American soil, as though there weren’t plenty of them here already. Reid doesn’t just repeat Republicans’ talking points for them—he screams them at the top of his lungs. Dick Cheney must be laughing his ass off.
Afterwords
Nancy did make herself look foolish in the eyes of the MSM, always a bad thing—forgetting Disraeli’s imperishable advice “Never complain, never explain,” but, shockingly, she may be correct on the facts. One of the CIA’s favorite tricks is to inform Congress folk of what they’re doing, to make them accomplices in their dirty tricks. Of course, you can protest, if you don’t mind leaks accusing of you treason. Hey, welcome to DC!
