Pathetic - The ditz of the House, excuse me, Speaker of the House is caught Red Handed lying to the American People and still a gaggle of left wingers can't bring themselves to say the obvious--she's unfit for her office.
And it was not just any lie, but rather the prop, one of them anyway, she has used to prop her sanctimonious self stiff, on what is now apparent, her hypocritical pedestal. Well now, said pedestal, at the tolling of the bell, has turned the glitzy pedestal into her own hard pike.
And what’s truly astonishing is watching so many put paid on said pike so as to rest there with her.

She will never do it, unless forced.
Gingrich "made an error" accepting money for a speech and they lambasted him and he was finished, when he simply could have paid the money back unlike the dems who steal documents, lie forget to pay taxes, etc...
Peeelousy will just continue to say she didn't do it and obfuscate the truth.

Hmmm… Should she resign when the executive officers responsible did not?
No.
Should she initiate an investigation that will look into the policy of torture and who ordered it and who knew what and when be willing to face censure, expulsion or a trial if indicted?
Yes.

Pelosi's days are numbered… At this point, her ever-changing, ever-contradicting story is an embarrassment to the Congress and her party. Republicans don't need to make her a distraction; she's doing that all by herself.

Pelosi's Problem:
There are only 4 explanations of what happened visa-a-vie Pelosi and the CIA:
1. She was asleep during the briefings
2. She has forgotten what she was told
3. She is simply lying
4. The CIA is lying.
If it is (1), then she needs to get more rest, or some NoDoz.
If it is (2), then she needs to be tested for Alzheimer's right away and get on medication
If it is (3) she needs to resign immediately before she becomes the story
IF it is (4), then show me the memo that says "Ha, Ha, we made it all up."
I suspect it is (3) but will give her the benefit and will go with (2), so she should get on medication ASAP. (Plus maybe get off of what she is on… looked at her eyes lately?) And since she is third inline for the presidency, she should resign immediately, because that position should not be held by a mentally deficient person, not firing on 4-cylinders! (An sorry, no offense to Alzheimer's patients, just her).

What version of her story are we up to?

Nancy Pelosi doesn't know who the real enemy is!
Nancy with the one track mind is confused about who our enemies are?! She thinks her Party are the angel (Dem), victims, abused by the devil Republicans! Doubtful, the delusive Pelosi will be held accountable for her trashing the CIA; the lib/Dems hold most of the cards. Course, the CIA itself can help nudge her out and the Dems will throw her under the bus if it benefits them!
But really, what were Americans thinking to make it so easy for a one-sided Party rule? Absolute power corrupts and politicians are self-serving enough!

Nancy will be gone now!
She attacked the CIA; she lied about them; and she wants to put them in prison with LIES. Do you really think they aren’t going to destroy her now? They know stuff and can find out stuff! And even if OBAMA doesn’t let them, they will do it anyway and laugh in her face as she’s lead off to jail. What an arrogant ignorant Representative California saddled us with. She is insane and typical of the far left! The truth seems to elude them completely.

In the ‘great quote of the day’, today:
Senator Kit Bond - (R) Missouri said, that “In a CIA briefing, they don't tell ‘ya' what methods ‘they are not going to use".
And as ‘Nancy "Bugs" Reid’ stated today, “Resign, break the glass ceiling!”, Nancy.
Personally, I hope she can weather this, I mean this dope, has set the standard for incompetence. Her and the other dope, Harry Pelosi, that is! Keep them front and center, the faces of the incompetent, abortion party.

Gingrich: Pelosi 'Lied,' 'Despicable,' 'Dishonest,' 'Vicious,' 'Trivial'
ABC News’ Rick Klein reports: Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich today offered a blistering critique of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s handling of oversight on harsh interrogation tactics, in a major escalation of partisan attacks being aimed at Pelosi.
In an interview with ABC News Radio’s Marcus Wilson, Gingrich, R-Ga., said Pelosi, D-Calif., “has lied to the House” in claiming that she was never briefed by the CIA about the Bush administration’s use of waterboarding and other harsh tactics.
"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. And I think this is a big deal. I don't think the Speaker of the House can lie to the country on national security matters,” Gingrich said.
He continued: "I think this is the most despicable, dishonest and vicious political effort I've seen in my lifetime."
"She is a trivial politician, viciously using partisanship for the narrowest of purposes, and she dishonors the Congress by her behavior."
"Speaker Pelosi's the big loser, because she either comes across as incompetent, or dishonest. Those are the only two defenses,” Gingrich said. “The fact is she either didn't do her job, or she did do her job and she's now afraid to tell the truth.”
Pelosi yesterday accused the CIA of giving her “inaccurate and incomplete information” on the use of waterboarding and other harsh interrogation tactics by the Bush administration, saying that CIA officials are guilty of “misleading the Congress of the United States.”
Her recollection is contradicted by an intelligence report sent to Congress last week, which said Pelosi was briefed on enhanced interrogation techniques “that had been employed” in September 2002.
Gingrich also says that playing politics around anti-terror techniques could “get a lot of people killed.”
“This is really, really dangerous, and it is going to get a lot of people killed, if we don’t call a halt to it.”

ABC News’ Rick Klein reports: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was briefed on the use of “enhanced interrogation techniques” on terrorist suspect Abu Zubaydah in September 2002, according to a report prepared by the Director of National Intelligence’s office and obtained by ABC News.
The report, submitted to the Senate Intelligence Committee and other Capitol Hill officials Wednesday, appears to contradict Pelosi’s statement last month that she was never told about the use of waterboarding or other special interrogation tactics. Instead, she has said, she was told only that the Bush administration had legal opinions that would have supported the use of such techniques.
The report details a Sept. 4, 2002 meeting between intelligence officials and Pelosi, then-House intelligence committee chairman Porter Goss, and two aides. At the time, Pelosi was the top Democrat on the House intelligence committee.
The meeting is described as a “Briefing on EITs including use of EITs on Abu Zubaydah, background on authorities, and a description of particular EITs that had been employed.”
EITs stand for “enhanced interrogation techniques,” a classification of special interrogation tactics that includes waterboarding.
