I think it is funny to watch another politician try to squirm out of another lie.  Most politicians are very good and consistent  about lying.  They usually only get in trouble when they contradict the lies they told previously or when they call others liars.  It was more than just a lie to call out the CIA, but also the highest level of stupidity.  These people are the Central Intelligence Agency and have the dirt on everybody! Hello!

CNN:

Pelosi last week said she was briefed by the CIA on such techniques only once, in September 2002, and said she was told techniques like waterboarding were not being used.

Pelosi, D-California, said she learned from an aide that waterboarding had been used after other lawmakers were briefed in 2003.

A recently released Justice Department memo says the CIA used waterboarding at least 83 times in August 2002 in the interrogation of Abu Zubaydah, a suspected al Qaeda leader imprisoned at U.S. facilities in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

Rep. Pete Hoekstra, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, said Monday that if Pelosi’s accusations are not true, she may need to step down.

“She made some outrageous accusations last week where she said that the CIA lied to her and lied systematically over a period of years. That is a very, very serious charge,” Hoekstra said Monday on CNN’s “American Morning.”

Remember when Senator John Edwards denied vehemently he was faithful and did not have an affair. He was also outspoken against other politicians and seemed to crusade against them for their cheating ways. Now he looks like a  hypocritical idiot. Edwards got caught with his pants down while his wife had cancer.  There sure are a lot of lying Democrats lately… or at least getting caught lying.

As Elizabeth Edwards speaks out about her husband’s affair with a campaign worker in a new book, Resilience, those who know the couple predict the Edwards’ marriage, difficulties aside, will survive. “John and Elizabeth still love one another,” says John Moylan, a family friend. “I think they will make it through.”

In her new book, Elizabeth Edwards writes that after learning her husband was cheating, “my sense of what I meant to the people around me was … shaken.” She recalls that she went to a bathroom and threw up when John broke the news.
