Pelosi's playing dumb AGAIN!


Posted: Dec 14, 2014

The man who oversaw the controversial CIA interrogation program defended the use of the techniques used on militants --  including waterboarding -- and said members of Congress, including Rep. Nancy Pelosi, were “fully aware” of the methods used.

“She never objected to the techniques at all,” Jose Rodriguez, former director of the CIA’s National Clandestine Service, said on "Fox News Sunday." “All of these techniques were approved by the lawyers.”

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., a former member of the Senate Select Committee on intelligence, and Karl Rove, a former White House adviser to President George W. Bush and a Fox News contributor, were also on the program.  

The two were often at odds over whether the techniques described in the report constituted torture, whether the methods were effective and if the CIA misled the White House and Congress.

The CIA report dominated most of the Sunday talk shows.

Last week, former Vice President Dick Cheney called the controversial CIA interrogation report “full of crap,” during an interview with Fox News.

“I think it is a terrible report, deeply flawed,” Cheney said, in his first televised interview since the report’s release early last week. “It’s a classic example of where politicians get together and throw professionals under the bus.”

Cheney said he had not read the entire 6,000-page document, drafted by Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee, or the 500-page declassified and redacted executive summary made public.

 

P.S. She didn't know Gruber either...LOL

I left the Democratic party BECAUSE they are total ENABLERS of the sickening Republican agenda. So you won't see me defending Pelosi - she was the orchestrator of the SPINeLESS democrat representation...

But to post this in the face of what we KNOW about Bush and Cheney/GOP at this point regarding this national shame is a way of shifting focus.

Patriots speak out against party WHEN/IF it crosses the line because WE PROTECT our country. In this case, this policy has made US ALL LESS SAFE because we now have untold numbers of NEW enemies. Do people REALLY think that the people we have harmed are just going to shrug their shoulders?

Are we not smart enough as a nation to understand CAUSE AND EFFECT?

I miss the days of having leaders who don't think we still live in a - 9/10/01 world. Thanks Bush for

Is Maxine Waters Really As Dumb As Nancy Pelosi?Mar 01, 2013
Or maybe just a liar?   Maxine Waters makes dumbest point ever, claims 170 million jobs will be lost It wasn’t long ago that Nancy Pelosi claimed 500 million jobs would be lost per month if there was no government stimulus. Maxine Waters is taking a page from Skeletor’s book by claiming if no deal is made on the sequester cuts, 170 million jobs will be cut. Quite a claim considering only about 130 million people in America have jobs. ...

US Too Dumb To Know Jul 14, 2011
US too dumb to know O is always right By MICHAEL GOODWIN Last Updated: 4:04 AM, July 13, 2011 Posted: 1:43 AM, July 13, 2011 When President Obama started talking at his news conference Monday, I listened intently for 15 minutes or so. Then I got fidgety as his half-truths about the debt grew into full-blown whoppers. As he droned on, I did something I never did before during an Obama appearance: I turned off the TV. Enough. He is the Man Who Won't Listen to Anybody, so why sh ...

I Did Something DumbNov 12, 2013
Okay, not as dumb in the scheme of dumb things a person can do, but here it goes. We have a very large freezer and buy things in bulk to save money. Often, we have to take stuff out in order to get to the item we want to defrost. In most cases, we remember to put all the stuff back that we took out, but every now and then, we forget something. This time, it was a 5-lb bag of sausage. It is commercially-bought sausage, so there are probably plenty of preservatives in there. Anyway, it was ...

How Dumb Are People?Nov 02, 2010
In Houstin, TX, we have a conservative group doing a "True the Vote" thing where they are there to make sure there is no fraud going on.  As a conservative....this is just asking for trouble in my opinion.  How can you detect fraud from standing outside?  I guess unless you visibly watch every person that goes in to make sure the same person isn't going in....but seriously....how dumb.  Now you have the New Black Panther Party retaliating and saying they will be there to ...

Dumb QuestionJul 24, 2013
I have a really dumb question. I have moderately severe osteoarthritis of my hip. I am finding it increasingly difficult to sit at a desk or table for longer than 15 or 20 minutes at a time. I find I am fairly more comfortable sitting on my recliner sofa and it's easier on my hip. Do any of you work at a desk or table? Do you have any suggestions. Some nights it's almost unbearable to sit for any length of time especially when it rains. Thanks ahead of time. ...

Dumb As A Rock: US HighschoolersJan 12, 2012
Are we raising the stupidest generation in American history?  The statistics that you are about to read below are incredibly shocking.  They indicate that U.S. high school students are basically as dumb as a rock.  As you read the rest of this article, you will be absolutely amazed at the things that U.S. high school students do not know.  At this point, it is really hard to argue that the U.S. education system is a success.  Our children are spoiled and lazy, our schoo ...

He refuses to state whether or not his idiotic "religious freedom law" will allow people to discriminate against gays. Of course it will. Good for all the businesses and athletes who are boycotting this law and the state. I am really getting sick of this being the "I Hate Obama" board, "no, I hate him more," "no, I REALLY hate him." If you think that's politics, it's not. It's just boring. So, anyone, what think you about this situation of governors approving laws that make it ...

Grandchildren Playing Outside.Feb 02, 2015
My grandchildren are 8 and 4.  They live in the city, without much of a yard.  They do not go outside unsupervised when they are at home with their parents.  When they do go outside, it is usually to a nearby playground, park, etc.  We live in the country and have a 1-1/2 acre yard, with a swing set for them.  There are windows across the back of the house, and I can see them in the back yard.  I find that they mostly want to stay indoors and watch TV, or play vide ...

Trump Playing Us For Suckers?Apr 26, 2011
(CNN) -- The disappointing thing about most phonies is that they don't have staying power. Once they get caught, they give it up and skulk off into the night, never to be heard from again. Think of Rosie Ruiz, say, who pretended to win the Boston Marathon by sneaking out of a crowd of bystanders ahead of everybody in the last half-mile of the race. That's why I like Donald Trump so much. When it comes to pretending to run marathons, he never quits. For more than 20 years he' ...

In short, Speaker Nancy Pelosi isn't going anywhere. She's not giving up her House seat, as other deposed speakers have.
