Boehner Refuses To Go Along With Fox’s Call To Unseat Pelosi: ‘Let’s Not Get Too Far Down The Road Here’

Last week, former Republican House speaker Newt Gingrich launched a campaign to investigate House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) over what she knew about the Bush administration’s torture program. “I think she has lied to the House, and I think that the House has an absolute obligation to open an inquiry, and I hope there will be a resolution to investigate her,” Gingrich told ABC News. Other Republicans have heeded Gingrich’s call and agreed that Pelosi should be investigated and possibly stripped of her Speakership:

“It is outrageous, and the American people need to speak to their Democrat members of Congress and ask them to come up with a new speaker.” [Rep. Steve King (R-IA), 5/15/09]

“And if indeed Nancy Pelosi has lied, which it seems to me that she has, then — then she either needs to resign or at the very least have a public and open apology to the CIA.” [Rep. Trent Franks (R-AZ), 5/18/09, Fox and Friends]

CHETRY: Yes. But if it comes — she either, you know, is forced to step down or she isn’t. What’s your opinion?
HOEKSTRA: Well, I think she’s been the one that has been saying people within the Justice Department need to be held accountable, people in the CIA need to be held accountable. If she wants to apply that same standard, it has to be applied to her as well.” [Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-MI), 5/18/09, CNN]

Fox News has also been aggressively pushing for Pelosi’s resignation. This morning, Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade tried to get House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) to agree. Boehner, however, shied away:

BOEHNER: I think the ball is in the speaker’s court. I think she needs to come forward, either present evidence or do an apology, and let’s get this behind us. [...]

KILMEADE: If she has none, she should remain Speaker?

BOEHNER: Let’s not — let’s not get too far down the road here. I’m not going to take anything off the table, but I do believe that — that the ball is in her court. And she has to either put up or have an apology and move on.

Watch it:

Over the weekend on ABC’s This Week, Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) similarly rejected Gingrich’s call for a full-blown investigation, saying, “I am less interested in investigating whether her memory or correct or she lied about it than I am in the policies that flow from the debate that we’re having. I am not one who thinks we ought to have truth commissions and all of the rest of it and keep looking backward.”

As Pelosi has made clear, questions about her level of knowledge make a truth commission more — not less — necessary. “Until a truth commission comes into being, I encourage the appropriate committees of the House to conduct vigorous oversight of these issues,” Pelosi said. If conservatives were genuine in their outrage, they would be embracing Pelosi’s calls for a full investigation instead of trying to distract from the real issue of the Bush administration’s torture program.

    Pay no attention to that man cowering in the corner… the Mighty Oz has spoken!


  2. jjm says:

    This whole discussion is trumped up nonsense. Why on earth should ‘Pelosi resign’ — unless the Republicans are escalating in fear she will actually get a truth commission started as she has proposed? Boehner knows this pseudo-controversy could easily engulf him: start a bunch of half-truth rumors and use their wide overcoverage on Fox as an excuse to call for his resignation. Could happen to anyone, and it’s time we got wise to this disgraceful tactic.

    That’s right. I called you Shirley. What are you gonna do about it?


  9. Hoodathunktick says:

    I agree. Nancy should consider stepping down. Right after the people who actually did the things she is accused of lying about are brought to justice.

    By their own standards, if they want to punish Nancy for what she may have done by not speaking out about what they told her about, we need to know just what she is supposedly lying about.


  10. Doodlebug Shayne says:

    Pelosi knew what? I though Bush said we didn’t torture anybody. And Cheney said what ever we did was necessary. When these two and their accomplices are tried and found guilty then we can decide if Pelosi abetted the crime. Until the actual perpetrators are found guilty what could Pelosi be guilty of?


  11. Oval12345678 aka James K. Sayre says:

    Faux Noise loves torture, treason and tyranny, especially that of right-wing Republicans such as Cheney, Rumsfeld and Bush.


  12. SP Biloxi says:

    “BOEHNER: Let’s not — let’s not get too far down the road here.”

    Still blowing out cow gas again. One minute slamming Pelosi for her comments about the CIA and demanding her to apologize. And now the spray tanning Boner isn’t chiming in to have Pelosi removed as Speaker of the House. Boner knows that he would rather have spineless Pelosi in her position than replacing a Speaker of the House who would be Democrat with more cajones than Pelosi to get things done in Congress since we are talking about a dominant Democratic Congress.


  13. hormiga brava chavez says:

    The conservative thugs are ridiculous fools if they think Pelosi is going to step down over such bogus accusations! Boehner doesn’t want a real investigation he’s just kicking up dust to distract from the investigation of the Bush Crime Family.


  14. Doodlebug Shayne says:

    It’s funny that most of us aren’t Pelosi supporters since she took impeachment off the table. But now that the Repubes are after her the Democrats better stand firm in support of her.

    That being said, Nancy, I hope you can see now what playing nice with these turds will get you.


  15. Count Istvan says:

    It is outrageous, and the Western Iowa people need to speak to their neighbors and ask them to come up with a new Member Of Congress.


  16. had enough says:

    Let’s No Get Too Far Down The Road Here’

    code for: we really need to quiet this thing up as if the real truth comes out, we are screwed.


  17. Xisithrus says:

    Well, logic dictates that if Pelosi attended the briefings so did Boehner..


  18. StratRat says:

    The right side is baiting Pelosi to discuss a classified briefing? In public? Even the juveniles at the GOP know she cannot discuss anything involving a classified topic.

    So lets recap: If Pelosi was briefed on torture – but was unable to say anything about it – then we know the Bush adminstration broke US and international law for doing so, and there should be an independant counsel appointed.

    If Pelosi was briefed on the fact that there was no torture – then what is the GOP’s problem? They cannot have it both ways. Either they tortured suspects against the law or they didn’t. If no torture, then why not appoint a independant counsel to investigate Pelosi’s accusations.

    It’s about the torture – not the Speaker.


  19. Hoodathunktick says:

    By their own logic, how can you accuse someone of lying about something that wasn’t a crime or never happened?

    Boner is twisting in the wind because he can’t nail Nancy unless he nails himself and his cronies first. Poetic Justice indeed.

    What a bunch of Progressive hypocrites you all are.


  21. WAYNEBRO says:

    Does anyone see the amazing Red Herring being built here?

    We’re swinging at pitches in the dirt. There’s no reason to swing here.

    The republicans are FOR Bush’s torture programs, right?

    So what do they care whether Pelosi “knew about it” or not?

    What does that have to do with ANYTHING???

    Here’s a hint: NOTHING.

    It has NOTHING to do with anything at the moment when dealing with the republicans because if they support the programs, what does it matter that she knew?

    If she did know then fine, she’s in their camp and needs to be prosecuted with them.

    But worrying about whether or not she knew, and the republicans talking about impeaching her when they CONDONE the torture program anyway is just a big, fat RED HERRING.

    Designed to take the debate off of whether or not we as a nation are going to torture people.

    If we listen to the republicans, then tortures ok and therefore Pelosi did nothing wrong, per THEIR standards.

    So all they’re doing is getting you guys to swing at a pitch in the dirt.

    To “parry a feint” as it were.

    The only debate here is whether or not Bush’s torture program was legal and a moral standard that we accept or not.

    Once THATS decided, THEN we can worry about “who knew”.

    Until then this is just one big diversion.

  27. WAYNEBRO says:

    And one more thing.

    The reason Boners backpedaling about impeachment for Pelosi if she “knew” about their torture program, is because he is recognizing that if the republicans make too big of a stink demanding she be removed for knowing about an illegal torture program, then it confirms that the program was illegal, and puts them all in trouble.

    It confirms their culpability.

    So while they like the diversion they don’t want to sell it too hard, otherwise they’re all in the same pickle barrel they’re trying to shove her into.

    These bastards fight dirty and only have an interest in the GOP winning. All they needed was one Dem name in collusion with torture and the whipped media turned the issue on its head where there is a contrived stalemate in culpability.

    Republicans never take anything off the table, Nancy.


  30. hanshiro the antlion says:

    Not necessarily for the reasons stated by the republicans, but yes, Pelosi should step down.

    Remember, she promised to end the war during the 2006 campaign?

    (From “The Chicken Doves:”)

    Rep. Lynn Woolsey, a fellow caucus member, says Democrats should have refused from the beginning to approve any funding that wasn’t tied to a withdrawal. “If we’d been bold the minute we got control of the House — and that’s why we got the majority, because the people of this country wanted us out of Iraq — if we’d been bold, even if we lost the votes, we would have gained our voice.”

    An honest attempt to end the war, say Democrats like Woolsey and Lee, would have involved forcing Bush to execute his veto and allowing the Republicans to filibuster all they wanted. Force a showdown, in other words, and use any means necessary to get the bloodshed ended.

    “Can you imagine Tom DeLay and Denny Hastert taking no for an answer the way Reid and Pelosi did on Iraq?” asks the House aide in the expletive-filled office. “They’d find a way to get the votes. They’d get it done somehow.”

    Nancy, “Impeachment-Off-The-Table” Pelosi is an unqualified disgrace. She, along with Harry “We’re-Trying” Reid and John”I-Was-For-Prosecutions-Before-I-Was-Against-Them” Conyers.

    Put in Kucinich and Feingold and let’s have leadership with some integrity. Dump conniving Pelosi.

    The bald fact is that Pelosi, Reid and Conyers could have made history by an unprecedented effort to fulfill their promises and very likely save hundreds of lives. They chose their careers and betrayal. Lives were lost because Nancy played games and lied to us.

    Oh yeah, we absolutely need the reight wing to tell us what we need and want in our political leaders because we just can’t function without their advice.

    And when we see problems with their members, we will immediately let them know and they will absolutely follow our advice too!

    Who asked for anything less? I said IF she knew then she should be prosecuted with the rest of them.

    But that’s a DIVERSION because so far no ones decided officially that it was a crime!

    That’s the POINT!

    This is a diversion.

    A complete and utter diversion.

    FIRST we need to address whether or not it was a crime, which it was.

    THEN we can worry about “who knew what”.

    FIRST we need a mandate, and that means a special prosecutor to investigate it, determine the legality involved and THEN we can worry about “who knew”.

    This is putting the cart before the horse and its a DIVERSION.

    The republicans are distracting by putting it on Pelosi when they themselves haven’t even admitted it was wrong yet.

    FIRST we need to confirm it was wrong, from a legal standpoint.

    THEN you worry about “who knew”.

    Got it?

    The bullying, authoritarian parent may do that. The thoughtful and careful parent would spend some time to determine exactly who did what and when. Then, after knowing the facts, they could deal with the possible punishment for the wrongdoer.


  36. misscoleopteramolly says:

    The Republicans should really be treading carefully here. That brush of tar they want to fling at Nancy could wind up hitting everyone. Boehner appears to be unwilling to cross that line — probably because he’s sensible enough to know the price of “getting” Pelosi.

    I would love to see an investigation into this whole stinking mess get underway. And I really don’t care if it starts with Pelosi or anybody else — because, like cancer, it will eventually spread everywhere. And hopefully expose everybody who’s a part of this whole mess (and when the dust settles, I doubt Pelose will be as muddied as the people who actually ordered and green-lighted the torture).

    There appear to be a lot of Republicans who like to snarl, snap, and generally make noise — but they don’t like to think.

    One last notion: Don’t defend an unqualified, distorting democrat because the GOP calls for their head.

    It’s an old trick to have a knee-jerk response and reduce criticism to a majority leader who really deserves a good raking over the coals and replacement. Pelosi has done some greasy lying about her intentions and her promises, few, if any have been realized.

    She is a political operative who is deft only at keeping her job and blaming others while covering for the establishment, business-as-usual politics.

Pelosi didn’t twist arms at the DOD and CIA to make a case for invasion. Pelosi didn’t decide to torture suspects as a way to connect Iraq with Al Quaida. Pelosi didn’t populate the FOX (and others) airwaves with retired (and very biased) military advisors who all had a conflict of interest in appearing as objective. Pelosi didn’t declare Mission Accomplished on the deck of a carrier.

    If the briefings were classified, Pelosi couldn’t have said anything about it. Its about the torture, not the speaker.

    OS Says: Nothing like debunking yourself, ay?

    “Republicans are in lock step w/Fox News #1″

    Obviously not the case.

    The abundance of conservatives and Republicans at Fox News Channel does not seem to be a coincidence. In 1996, Andrew Kirtzman, a respected New York City cable news reporter, was interviewed for a job with Fox and says that management wanted to know what his political affiliation was. “They were afraid I was a Democrat,” he told the Village Voice (10/15/96). When Kirtzman refused to tell Fox his party ID, “all employment discussion ended,”

    FOX is like the Harlem Globetrotters, not in race/color, but in ideology, the other side, liberals, are hired by FOX [read Colmes] to lose.

    This is crap!

    Did she register any objections whatsoever? Did she file objections, classified, of course, ahainst the torture program (which wouldn’t violate her ‘oath) The answer is a resounding NO!

    Don’t gve me that, “Pelosi couldn’t have said anything about the breifings” bongwater. How stupid are you? As Greenwald pointed out, why be required to brief both party members if they have absolutely no recourse to register objections to illegal conduct? That would be asinine.

    I notice you’re all too willing to excuse Nancy for sitting on her hands and sighing, “Oh well,” when she spent the entire campaign promising to end the war and hold bush responsible. At the least, if she could do any of the things sh promised, she should be removed for either perjury in her office as majority leader, or gross incompetence for not understanding the very definite procedures for stopping an illegal war, particularly an illegal war that the dems rode to a majority by swearing to end.

    I don’t know what’s worse, that Pelosi has skated this long by making suckers of the American public, or that people like Strat are still gullible enough to keep swiggin’ the bongwater of misplaced loyalty…

First of course, is the issue of torture and the FACT that it is a violation of our own Constitution and the treaties which we signed (which as per the Constitution are mandated to be honored in the same way). Thus, anyone who knew this was occurring should have come forward whether or not it was so-called “Classified.” Their vow to support and defend the U.S. Constitution trumps ANY classified information IF it violates that Constitution. Secondly, there were Republicans who were also briefed on these methods, and not just in 2002. Thirdly, the whole briefing of only 4 members of the Senate and House Intelligence Committees completely abrogated the law about such disclosures. Even the briefing of the “Gang of 8″ (Majority/Minority leaders of both houses as well as Majority/Minority leaders of the Intelligence Committees in each house) is supposed to be resorted to under extremely limited conditions. The conditions were not met…and certainly for any “Gang of Four” which isn’t even IN the law about disclosures to the Congress.

    Now as far as Pelosi is concerned, I personally believe very little of anything she says. I do think this is one of the issues she was probably blackmailed with back in 2006 that led her to announce that “impeachment is off the table.” It would be ironic if the current political pressure about this leads to her replacement as Speaker with (hopefully) someone who isn’t tainted by this situation, since there are many of us that have wanted her replaced for several years now.

    But this entire situation points not only to a so-called “Truth Commission” which I would support only if it had completely non-political and non-partisan people on it, but even more important…an independent prosecutor to investigate the entire mess and let the chips fall where they may.

    The LAST thing Boehner or Gingrich want is for Pelosi to step down.

    First, they want to keep on bashing her because she isn’t very popular anyway. They wouldn’t dare go after the President like this because he’s too popular.

    Second, Nancy Pelosi is the person who took impeachment “off the table” and that sticks to her, even if she is calling for investigations now. If Pelosi goes, then the majority can put in someone who has none of her appeasement baggage, and the investigation juggernaut would pick up some serious momentum.


  69. Bilbo Hussein Baggins says:

    hanshiro the antlion Says:
    Did she register any objections whatsoever? Did she file objections, classified, of course, ahainst the torture program (which wouldn’t violate her ‘oath) The answer is a resounding NO!

    1) How do you know she didn’t register objections? The briefings were classified and according to the CIA they didn’t take transcripts (yeah right). If everything is classified, you have no idea what Nancy Pelosi did regarding objecting or not objecting.

    2) For you to say she should have filed objections against torture, you will have to buy into their talking point that Pelosi was briefed that detainees were being tortured. There is no proof of that.

    Why is it that you are so adamant that you know what happened when there is no proof? I get it that you don’t like Pelosi but I don’t get it why you are willing to believe the CIA (who has been caught in numerous lies) and you don’t believe Pelosi.

    What proof? When the Republicans who were briefed at the same time agree with the CIA? No, I’m not going to believe that because Republicans and the CIA lie. My question is, why is the CIA claiming they have no transcript of that briefing. If they don’t take transcripts of the briefings they give, they should not be in the business they are in. I am 100% positive there are transcripts of that meeting. I’m also fairly positive the reason why the CIA is claiming there are no transcripts is that they will back up what Pelosi is saying.

    Harman was registering an objection to the destruction of the tapes. She said nothing about torture, again you twit.

    Something stinks to high heaven in Pelosi’s office…

    You didn’t answer my question, along with Baggy: Why wouldn’t Pelosi just point out that she objected and seek to declassify those objections? Why could Harman? You seek suspiciously short on answers, but your blind devotion to lying politicos is, well…baldly ignorant.

    That would do it. But, I don’t want to see Pelosi replaced for something she is not guilty of. If it turns out that the CIA has a written transcript of the briefing and that transcript shows that Pelosi was informed that they were torturing a detainee, then I will agree that Pelosi should step down. But until that time, I will give her the benefit of the doubt and will cheer her on while she calls for a truth commission.

  169. Robert M. says:

    Every since Harry Truman was president, the military/industrial complex has been using the excuse of “national security” and “you can’t divulge information you learn here due to national security policy,” to keep Congress in line.

    Yes, divulging classified information does put you in legal jeopardy.

    But as an officer of the U.S. federal government, everyone from National Park Rangers, to FBI employees, to members of Congress and White House appointees, if you witness a crime taking place, it is your duty, under penalty of being charged as an accomplice after the fact, to report that crime and the circumstances surrounding it and the actors involved to Federal Law Enforcement Officers in order to ensure the crime does not continue and those involved are prosecuted.

    This latter responsibility supercedes the national security scam.

    Harman was registering an objection to the destruction of the tapes. She said nothing about torture, again you twit.

    No, dumba$$, Harman’s letter mentioned the interrogation techniques (but of course, not the word “torture:”)

    At the briefing you assured us that the [redacted] approved by the Attorney General have been subject to an extensive review by lawyers at the Central Intelligence Agency, the Department of Justice and the National Security Council and found to be within the law.

    That makes you an uninformed idiot who just wants to carp and whime. The fact is you know nothing about this subject. In fact, Haraman uses the perfect phrasing that an allegedly concerned Pelosi could have used if she had put her objections in writing but avoided any classified references:

    It is also the case, however, that what was described raises profound policy questions and I am concerned about whether these have been as rigorously examined as the legal questions. I would like to know what kind of policy review took place and what questions were examined.

    Baggy, you’re such a know-nothing dink that every time you post about what you think you know, it only reveals just how clueless you really are. You’re just a garden-variety poseur.

    I read somewhere that you are supposedly a teacher.

    I have teaching experience, though I don’t know if it’s enough to overcome the idiocy with which you’re inculcating your kids. God help ‘em…


  184. Megaloptera McWars says:

    Next to that, Pelosi is the head of one house of congress providing oversight. Every government organization exists and continues to exists because of an act of congress.

    The CIA is a corrupt organization; it is not out of bounds for an oversight function to point that out. It has the Bush touch still slathered all over it. When their misdeeds were exposed a slither (the torture memos) they whined like petulant little children. It’s time to take a long hard look at the federal workforce and start putting in some people with sound qualities. The burrowed and the might-as-well-be, send them packing to their cherished free market. People at some of these bloated national security agencies seem to think they’re working for a corporation. They are not, and public service needs to be emphasized.

    Basically, go do some reading and bring me sources, links, anything to support your refutation, ‘cuz right now, you got nuthin’, just like Baggy…

  229. hanshiro the antlion says:

    More for Baggy and Strat to edumacate themselves on:

    (From Greenwald:)

    Law Professor Michael Froomkin has an insightful refutation to the claim that Rockefeller, Harman and friends were “helpless” upon learning of the administration’s illegal torture program (and, by extension, its illegal surveillance activities) based on the excuse that they were legally compelled to maintain the secrecy of this classified information. I actually have some additional thoughts on this topic as well regarding other mechanisms they could have invoked (which I touched on the other day here, and will write more about tomorrow), but Froomkin raises an important point I hadn’t thought of.

    Digby has additional thoughts on this same subject here. The bottom line is that the law requires that Intelligence Committee members such as Pelosi, Harman and Rockefeller be briefed on such activities not because briefings are fun or intrinsically valuable. Rather, the whole point of their being briefed is that they are expected to engage in oversight, which means that they are supposed to do something when they learn that the President and the CIA are breaking the law.

    More from Greenwald:

    There are countless mechanisms available to a U.S. Senator or Representative to do something about illegal behavior they discover. Anyone — not just someone in such a position — has mechanisms available to them under whistleblower laws to intiate proceedings to investigate illegal government conduct. Why couldn’t they have done that?

    They could have also communicated much more aggressively within the government that unless the illegal behavior stopped, they would invoke those mechanisms. Why couldn’t they have done that?

    They could also commence closed door investigations to exert oversight over these illegal intelligence activities. The whole point of the SECRET SELECT INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEES is to enable Congress to exercise oversight even over the most secretive governmental conduct, precisely in order to prevent illegal behavior of this sort.

    I’m amazed that there are people willing to depict Rockefeller and Harman as some sort of helpless victims who were unable to act. They could have taken numerous steps to impede, if not stop and expose, the criminal conduct of which they became aware. Yet they didn’t – not because they couldn’t, but because they didn’t want to.

    Baggy and Strat, get up so I can knock you down again…

    *My defense with regards to Pelosi was in you wanting Pelosi to disclose classified information, not a defense of her behavior. YOU and I DON”T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ANYTHING. SO IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED ONCE AND FOR ALL.

    *The facts you speak of are classified, so YOU AND I DON’T KNOW ANYTHING SO IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE TO INVESTIGATE EVERYTHING.

    *I cannot provide any links be cause classified information is classified. YOU DON’T KNOW ANYTHING AND I DON’T KNOW ANYTHING WHICH MAKES PERFECT SENSE TO INVESTIGATE EVERYTHING.

    If you are serious and patriotic, you would want to know the truth – no matter who it hurt or who gets punished. That is my position.

    Playing verbal volleyball with a disabled person makes me feel sorry for you. I don’t mean to be mean, you just bring out the worst in people – but then again you are a proud member of the Limbaugh GOP. I know Rush thinks you are smart – and I know that means a lot to you. Now the rest of mankind knows you are a uninformed tool projecting much of what is wrong with you onto our shores, but we know the truth.

    Remember 2002? Guess it’s like labor pains, now that that administration is gone. I find it laughable that anyone in Congress would blow the whistle on the CIA and something would have been done, at that time. We hadn’t invaded Iraq yet, Bush was still a hero. The press would certainly not have been behind them—they were speculating on whether or not it was a punishable offense to criticize the president. The Patriot Act coupled with “with us or against us” created a terrifying climate for dissent. She would have gotten nowhere with Congress.

    That being said, she should want to do everything in her power to keep such a thing from happening again.

    It’s Republican odd that their best defense, in this case, is this bizarre conundrum of an offense.

What do I know about the situation? Nothing. How can we both learn about the situation? Investigate everybody. How can America regain her credibility? For you and the Limbaugh crowd to move from here and start your own country. Lead by limbaugh, hannity, beck and the other cry babies, you may even find yourself being respected for once.

    It boils down to this, FatRat; I’ve provided numerous and extensive sources to validate my position.

    You’ve provided uninformed speculation and knee-jerk emotionalism in an attempt to dismiss my stand and substantive information.

    I’ve brought experts in the field of Constitutional law to illustrate the options Pelosi had to object, but you idiotically and ignorantly claim Pelosi didn’t know. Then explain this:

    Pelosi herself acknowledged in a December 2007 statement that she was aware that Harman had learned of the waterboarding and had objected in a letter to the CIA’s top counsel.

    “It was my understanding at that time that Congresswoman Harman filed a letter in early 2003 to the CIA to protest the use of such techniques, a protest with which I concurred,” Pelosi said in the Dec. 9, 2007, statement.

    I love slapping down the arrogantly uninformed like FatRat. Keep ‘em coming, you brainless boob!

    Is our inbreds learning yet?

    Isn’t Bush commiting the crime more important than whether or not Pelosi knew about it? Bush goes free and Pelosi is forced to resign? This is approaching Alice In Wonderland.

    wiley Says:

    She was on a committee, Jay—that’s why she was briefed. You think I didn’t catch that? Whoop-di-do. Her position didn’t give her magical powers over the administration or the CIA.

    So she was just on a committee wiley. How smart you are. What committee, what was her standing on that committee and what was it’s responsibilities to the American people?

    You’re so small minded it’s “pathetic”, (to use a common term of Eugene’s). Her position gave her massive responsibilities to the “American People” as do all our elected officials. She failed in all counts and is still failing the country.

    So what was her position and it’s responsibilities wiley??????

    Politics Keith. I’m surprised you didn’t know that. Bush will never have to answer to any tribunal. If he did then all Presidents will have to, all the past living Presidents and all future Presidents.

    It will never happen, ever.

    If you post stupidity then don’t be surprised when it is used against you. You’ve been here long enough to have learned that.

    Pelosi used the excuse that someone else wrote a letter so she didn’t have to. She was the person in charge, it should of came from her desk as well.

    Gee, Jay—I guess it was the same as the responsibilities of the following people:

    The lawmakers who held oversight roles during the period included Pelosi and Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif.) and Sens. Bob Graham (D-Fla.) and John D. Rockefeller IV (D-W.Va.), as well as Rep. Porter J. Goss (R-Fla.) and Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan).

    Why is Nancy the ONE? Because she’s calling for investigation.

    I understood Eugene. Nancy says that just one person speaking out was going to be enough. Sorry but she was the one briefed and she was the ranking Democratic member of the House Intelligence Committee. It should of come from her, unless she didn’t care. I think she didn’t care about it until it became a political hot potato and now she is making up stories and excuses. Oh ya, she’s a liar also. This is why she didn’t want to take action against Bush, she knew she would be dragged into the investigation. CYA. Right?


  287. wiley says:

    Porter Goss was Chairman of the committee.


  288. Keith says:

    Right, marati, it was Hastert.

  293. barfly says:

    Your post tells me that you really don’t know the meaning of the word. Just look at RHF for a classic example of a bigot.


  313. wiley says:

    There was also a Senate Intelligence Committee. Making Pelosi out to be some sort of lone wolf, as if she alone were briefed, and she alone had the power to do something about it is really silly; but the bar has been lowered so much since 2000…


  314. barfly says:

    Never happen. You people have Biden and he’s kinda a chain around the Presidents neck. They know that what goes around, comes around.

    Not what I asked. You could have taken a less partisan tack, and said, “Although it will never happen, I would like to see Cheney cross-examined, as well as anyone who knew of the policy…” But you chose to duck any mention of getting at the truth. That makes you appear predudiced, and more interested in your party’s well-being than the country’s. Or you could make that statement, and prove me wrong.

    I for one find it extremely odd indeed that Boehner would shilly-shally like this on the issue of Pelosi stepping down as Speaker when he supposedly participated in an attempted coup against a former Speaker — and a member of his own party yet! Then again, maybe he knows what side his bread is buttered on. Maybe he’s afraid that someone in the media will rehash that — if they did, it probably wouldn’t do his reputation any favors right now with other neoconservative Republicans and/or with those voters who continue to support them, because it would be a reminder that he turned his back on one of their own.

    Eugene,

    Whenever you post I get the awful feeling of spittle on me…… ugh……

    dbadass whatever – I have no idea what you’re talking about, and most likely neither do you……

    Locust, Go attend to whatever you want. Nancy Pelosi has accused the CIA of lying to her and Congress on a routine basis. I’m not surprised you don’t get this, but to those of us who didn’t drink the kool-aid, it makes sense to ask for some shred of evidence to support this.

    hates facts,

    Ha! I don’t take for granted that any reporting from MSNBC is necessarily accurate and unbiased.

    Oh and how many times do you think one should be briefed in ordered to be considered “briefed”? I think once should do it!

    Please let me explain a few things here — The Obama administration released memos that detailed the enhanced interrogations techniques used against our ENIMIES. What Mr. Obama said by doing so is that the required “need to know” for classified disclosure doesn’t matter and that the classification itself doesn’t matter either. i.e. It’s okay to tell the American public and the world public what tactics we used and will use…excuse the F__K out of me, but does this president not understand the most basic of protocol when it comes to classified information. The exposure of the “memos” was a HUGE mistake on Obama’s part and that mistake has NOTHING to do with the BUSH ADMINSTRATION! OBAMA SCREWED UP HERE!!!!

    And as far as Pelosi’s involvement goes here, her lack of objection constitutes co-conspiratorship…i.e. she is just as responsibile as the republican administration. They don’t call it an oversight committee because you can’t do anyting…Pelosi is full of crap. Pelosi fell down on the job ( as far as here stated viewpoints are concerned). She was informed and failed to object in any way, shape, or form. The real truth is more likely that she had no objection at the time to the tactics being used. Why, because crazy people were trying to kill Americans. Get real people…wake the he11 up!!!

    Consider this, Diane Feinstein is in charge of the investigation into the issue detailed above in the Senate…Feinstein is a fellow Californian who shuffled $25 billion to her husband’s failing company…she claims she didn’t know about the contract. If so, she is completely incompetent. If she did know about the contract, she is a fellon. Why is she in charge of anything? Why is she still in office?

    My point here is, who do the Dems and Obama think they are fooling…not this guy!
