Gingrich Is Right on Pelosi: Her Spin on Torture Is "Vicious and Dishonest"

The Republicans are falling back on the things they do best: innuendo and character assassination. Really, the ONLY things they are good at, being the "Party of No", they have no platform and must rely upon wrapping themselves in the flag and bloviating about the "unpatriotic" doings of the party now in power. Good Lord.

The fact is, it is the sinister Republican party, including Newt Gingrich, who are to blame for the current disastrous state of our economy and foreign affairs. The conservatives who were in power for the 12 years prior to the Obama Administration did everything they could to ruin our country, and were for the most part successful. I think many members of the Bush administration should be put behind bars, including Vice President Dick Cheney.

A retired senator from Florida, who kept detailed records of the CIA briefings he and Speaker Pelosi attended in 2002, said today that he concurs with her. He also said that the CIA, within the past week, claimed that they had briefed him him a total of 4 times in 2002, when in fact he was briefed only once. This has been confirmed by the CIA. Is it a big stretch to believe that the same Bush-era CIA that provided the false WMD information that was use to make the case for the invasion of Iraq also lied to our congressmen and women? Not at all.

Peter Roff, you are nothing but a small scatologist, a fop of the right-wing, and I expect your career will be short.

The MSM is all over Sarah Palin anytime she mis-speaks or has an awkward moment; up until now the same has not been true about Ms. Pelosi. She has had numerous "brain cramp" moments that go by unmentioned - just watch a tape of her trying to explain the stimulus package. Yesterday however, if the reaction of the press at her news conference is any indicator, she may have broken through the teflon barrier. She was rambling, befuddled, and inconsistent; and the press present seemed to smell blood. We'll see where it goes from here.

The United States tortured under the Bush Administration.

The Republicans held the majority in Congress at this time.

Would you like me to make it easier for you Pete?

Bush = Torture

Republicans = Irrelevant

Pelosi = Scapegoat

Sounds like I'm talking to my kids.

FIRST, WHY SHOULD ANYONE BELIEVE GINGRICH WHO WAS CENSORED BY CONGRESS FOR ETHICS VIOLATIONS OVER PAC MONIES?

SECOND, WHY SHOULD ANYONE BELIEVE THE CIA, WHO LIED FOR YEARS ABOUT ILLEGAL TORTURE PRISONS AND RENDITIONS, WHICH THEY STILL HAVE NOT FULLY DISCLOSED?

THIRD, WHY SHOULD ANYONE BELIEVE CHENEY WHO LIED HIS AZZZ OFF OVER WMDS AND AL QAEDA TIES TO IRAQ?

THE 'NEW' GOP IS BANKRUPT. PERIOD.
