As it turns out ... Capitol Hill WAS told and approved of Water Boarding techniques. The Truth will come back and bit Capitol Hill. Do they REALLY want a Truth Commission?

What we need is to have a commission to determine what Nancy knew and when she knew it.

May we be one so that the world may be won.

Some are promising just that if hearings go forward. What a travisty for our operatives and service men and women.

Wonder why they won't honor Cheney's request and lay it all out there.

Everything you do is based on the choices you make. It's not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy, the weather, an argument, or your age that is to blame. You and only you are responsible for every decision and choice you make, period ... ... Wish more people would realize this.

If this was Colin Powell, stating that, I would believe it. I'm not sure that I believe anything she says. But I do need to give her the benefit of the doubt. The problem as I see it is the dems say one thing the repubs say the opposite. So we have a they said we said. We need a person on either side to step up and tell the truth. Until than only God knows.

I don't know the details of the story. Nancy Pelosi was not Speaker at the time. If she wasn't on the right committee she may not have been told. However there were congressmen, both Democrat and Republican, that were told I am sure.

So why would she say that she was not told?

Supposedly, she said they were briefed on different methods of enhanced interrogation but were not told for sure which ones would be used or to what extent they would be used.

However, others who were present (the Republicans, no doubt) said they were fully informed.

Do you have some tangible reasons for your belief?

If so, what are they?

Or are you just relying on your political predilections?

Anyone in gov't other than the president who asks for a private plane to take them from DC to SF directly because of the inconvenience suffered even in a first class commercial flight automatically goes to the bottom of MY rating.

Indeed. Probably not "good" for either party signing on to torture. But then how "instructive" that the Dems should pretend that they were only in the room in body but not in spirit so that they could later claim "we were never told" as they ratchet up the whining about this.

Why not just fess up??!!

To the extent that this was wrong -- it was a bipartisen error with full disclosure consisting of almost 30 briefing events.

in Christ,

Bob
