pelosi has got to answer one question

Nancy, You state that you were ata meeting where there was a list of possible techniques that could be used to get information from those captured. She was told that waterboarding was on the list, but had not yet been implemented. My dear nancy, if you are so against waterboarding, you should have complained before they were using it. So did you object? If the answer no,then you approved. Sp shut up!

If the answer is yes, why have you not said so. In your press conference you clearly said that you knew that waterboarding was on the list.

The Bush administratin made a tough choice, they believed was ok under current law. Let us not go back and rewrite history. Or maybe we should investigate other famous choices. Truman and the atomic bomb, that was the right choice, but could we not now after the fact say things like Japan would have surrendered without the bomb.

What about the bay of pigs, president kennedy? Wasn't that a huge mistake?

In Case There Are Still Questions About Pelosi

It's good to hear that someone besides Fox News is scrutinizing Pelosi on this; but since there is still spinning going on, I recommend everyone watch Pelosi's news conference yesterday and come to their own conclusions. For some it will enlightening, for others confirming.
