Haha, the CIA lies to Nancy Pelosi and now it's her fault. Great thread.
e.g. ...the CIA lies all the time, but they didn't lie to her, and she isn't very feminine... etc. etc.
Originally posted by FMFHere is a question for ya, why is it those on the left are so eager to throw Bush and Cheney under the bus for saying that Iraq had WMD's and say they were lying about it instead of the CIA lying to them about it? Then when you have a left winger like Pelosi come along and the blame is shifted towards the CIA and not her own actions? In fact, can we have confidence in Obama's foriegn policies if he is basing these policies on information given to him by the CIA?
Could it not be that "senior Dems and the White house" don't want to get manouvered into a situation where they are under pressure to prosecute Bush and Co? Politics in Europe is quite a sophisticated and wheels-within-wheels kind of thing (maybe even more so here in Indonesia). Surely it may all be a bit deeper and more complex than 'the person I don't like is ...[text shortened]... eople I like are telling the truth'. Is U.S. politics really as simple to dissect as that?

Also, Nancy Pelosi is not a left winger, don't be daft. Centrists like Kucunich even find it impossible to get access to U.S. politics at the national level, let alone leftists.
Ever since I heard the CIA actually tried to use psychics to obtain intelligence about the Russians (obviously, they failed) during the Cold War I've not been surprised in the slighest that they let 9/11 happen! It's a breeding nest of incompetence.

Did Cheney have any influence over the CIA during his term?
Should we have had any confidence in Bush/Cheney's foriegn policies if they were basing those policies on information given to them by the CIA?
And you blame Pelosi???

She's the "actual" liar, is she?
How do you figure that?
We're on page 4 of this thread - a thread specifically about 'who lied' - and not a jot or a shred of evidence either way. Just the laughable likes of you, Sam The Sham, whodey, utherpendragon... asserting, asserting, asserting...

The democrats are not angels from heaven, even though you think they're.

Is that what your degree of political literacy would have you think?
Can you cut & paste anything at all from anything I have ever posted to cast me as a U.S. Democrat?
No.
