Pervasive inaccuracy.

Nancy Pelosi(D-CA) the current Speaker of the House has said in reports earlier this year that she did not know that tactics such as waterboarding were used to interrogate terrorist under the Bush Administration. She was a leading congressional member that called for indictments of former top U.S. officials regarding what has been dubbed by the mainstream media as torture.

In February 2003, Michael Sheehy, Rep. Pelosi's intelligence aide attended a briefing in which the CIA's use of waterboarding was discussed. When Pelosi was informed by Sheehy that the tactic was in use, she did not object.  

Aside from waterboarding not actually being torture, in both the connotation and denotation of the word, there is a bigger issue here. Speaker Pelosi has lied to the American people, repeatedly on the subject to aid in the concoction of a negative attitude towards Bush 43's policies that has kept this nation safe post-911. As the third most powerful person in the world she has bamboozled the American people, and created an unnecessary distraction at a time when the focus should be on the outrageous spending, the debt we have left to our posterity and the march towards socialistic government that her party, and our president have rammed through congress, and signed into law. 

Speaker Pelosi's willingness to deceive the American people in order to further advances her far-left idiosyncrasies says something about the person she is. Congress ought to censure her if they are to gain the trust and respect of the people. Last time I checked, the House and Senates approval rating's were hovering around 30%--this will sure lead to a loss in points. We need a legislative body that we can trust.

Madam Speaker you knew and mislead the people you serve. Shame on you!

If water saves lives, use it!

Things up in D.C. really perplex me. If it's not one thing it's another. 

Enhanced Interrogation Techniques (EIT), mainly water-boarding has saved lives. The lives of countless Americans, and now it's being called torture. Torture or not, if dunking an enemy of this nation's head in water to force him to give up valuable information works, dunk his head! Why are we so concerned about the comfort level of those who seek the destruction of our Union? We would rather make sure that people who have publicly declared jihad against the United States live better than how they used to in their homelands, than protect the lives of the American people.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi(D-CA) along with other top congressional politicians were briefed in the after-math of 911 concerning the techniques employed by the Bush administration, and they supported it, but because it profits them, and their party politically they want to put on a "dog-and-jackass show", cry foul and divert attention by calling for the indictment of leaders of this country that kept us safe post 911, they have declassified secrets that gave us valuable information, but did not disclose the information obtained from EIT. Since the enemy knows the tactics, I'd at least like to see the results.

What ever happened to the promise of transparency?

Yes, President George W. Bush, kept this nation safe. There's a lot of things he did that I did not agree with, but there's no denying that we did not suffer another attack on U.S. soil for the remainder of his administration. His policies concerning water-boarding were in large part to thank.

So if water saves lives, let's use it.
