Please Please I'm Begging. Can Someone Explain Why What Pelosi Knew and When Is An Issue?
I don't get it. I really don't.

Are we Americans still this stupid? My God the fake issues that get people clacking.

So now Pelosi is responsible for the torture?! Aye yie yie.

1. GOP says so, and the media is still wired for the GOP machine
In addition, some persons on the left love parroting GOP talking points when the target is somebody to the right of Kucinich.

2. Because Democrats (including the president) have let Cheney win on this issue...
...instead of prosecuting his ass.

3. It's a fake issue and a distraction from the illegality of torture and prosecuting those responsible
Watch Obama side step as much as possible trying to appease the right which only wants blood not truth or accountability.

4. She isn't responsible, but she is complicit
She is acting all morally outraged that waterboarding occurred. But why didn't she
act morally outraged 6 years ago and speak out about it?

She lied in saying that she didn't know about it when she did.

7. Do you have any proof that she's lying?
Do you know what she knew? ...did't think so.

Save your outrage for those that perpetrated the torture. Even if Pelosi knew there wasn't a GD thing she could have done.
The info was classified.

6. It is not an issue, the information was CLASSIFIED
She was legally bound not to share it with anybody, therefore her hands were tied.

8. Doesn't matter that she knew, what matters is that it was done.....
and those who made it so are the ones who matter.

They know this, and we should too....since we supposed to be so smart!
