Pelosi Blames CIA for Lying

WASHINGTON (May 14) -House Speaker Nancy Pelosi accused the CIA and Bush administration of misleading her about waterboarding detainees in the war on terror and sharply rebutted claims she was complicit in the method's use.

"We were told specifically that waterboarding was not being used," she told reporters, referring to a formal CIA briefing she received in the fall of 2002. He stammered and blinked repeatedly during the questions, giving long confused answers to simple yes or no questions. She also said the CIA repeatedly lied and misled her, but the CIA refutes those claims and no other congress persons who were present have used that defense. The issue calls into question Ms. Pelosi's honesty as she publicly condemned the administration for using what she calls "torture" (water dunking for 40 seconds) when it became public knowledge, but privately, knew about it for years and didn't complain. She had called for a "truth commission" to investigate the Bush Administration about the techniques, but now critics are saying she's the one who should be investigated.
