Pelosi: Nothing more to say on her CIA allegation

It's not a stretch at all. If CIA documents are untrustworthy, then how can any reliance be placed on their intelligence reports? How can the President and Congress place reliance on what the CIA tells them? If they can't be trusted, how does their continued existence make sense?

You are aware that there are other discrepencies with the CIA documents? Source: FactCheck.org: Pelosi's Tortured Denials.

And sure enough, three different legislators have disputed various details in the CIA's account of the briefings. Former Sen. Bob Graham, a Democrat who in September 2002 served as chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said in an interview with the Huffington Post that prior to the release of the memo, the CIA initially told him that CIA records indicated he'd been briefed four times on torture policies. Graham, however, has rather famously chronicled pretty much every aspect of his life (right down to, say, what he puts in his pockets each day) since his first run for governor of Florida in 1977. Graham checked his notebooks and discovered that, in fact, he was briefed only once, on Sept. 27, 2002. Graham said he informed CIA officials of the discrepancy, telling NPR that after the agency reviewed its records "they indicated that I was correct. Their information was in error. There was no briefing on the first three of four dates."

Lookee here, you're starting to get it. :lol:
 
It's telling when Pelosi is the one calling for an investigation and the others want to 'move on, not look back'...:)
 
So you'll throw the CIA under the bus for Pelosi. Okay, gotcha.

So you will throw Pelosi under the bus even if she is right. Ok, gotcha.

You really think a congresswoman in her position wouldn't know more details than that. Bull****.

Dunno, that is why I am waiting for all the facts. We now have 4 members of congress stating that the CIA records are inaccurate in regards to them, which suggests something is wrong.
 
Nope....false allegations agaist Pelosi is in no way going to erase the glaring facts that Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Gonzalas broke American law and violated international treaties.

The tatic of attack and distract is doing nothing but making the Republicans look like foolish pathetic desperate liars....again.
