CIA an Enemy, not so bright...

[Lumpy 1]

If Obama, Pelosi and many in the Democratic Party leadership are soooo... smart, why would they make an enemy of the CIA? ( An inevitable fruitless search for the White Whale?)

I love your little digger there, he.he.he. But this is just a smoke screen. Obama is loosing big time on his government run healthcare plan--so he needs this diversion--to bring the left wing of his base back in line. They are totally outraged that they have an overwhemling majority of democrats in the senate--the congress--& the White House & can't get their free health care.

Most Americans are worried about the economy--millions have lost their jobs--with no prospect of finding another--& this administration goes after the CIA "again?" Unbelievable stupidity.

I wonder where Nancy Pelosi is going to run off to?--I'll bet she's not real happy about this--

Of course what Pelosi said has been proved true. They lied.

It has not, go ahead provide us a link where they CIA admitted they were wrong or any reputable third party has proven them wrong. In fact what we have is at least one other person that was briefed TELLING us she is wrong. Go figure.

Pelosi dispute is about CIA's faulty recordkeeping - St. Petersburg Times

Pelosi says that she was misled by the CIA in a secret September 2002 briefing by not being told that detainees had already been subjected to waterboarding. The CIA counters with notes of the meeting that say she was informed that such techniques "had been employed."

In the prior month a CIA detainee had been waterboarded 83 times.

While it is possible that Pelosi is conveniently not recalling properly, I think it is more likely that the CIA has it wrong, and the agency soft-pedaled to Congress what it was doing to prisoners.

Remember, this is the agency that destroyed 92 videotapes of abusive interrogations, presumably including waterboarding, in order to prevent anyone, including members of Congress, from seeing its tactics.

Helping Pelosi's case are the recollections and records of Florida's retired Sen. Bob Graham, who as chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee also received a CIA briefing on detainees a few weeks after Pelosi.

Graham says the briefing was relatively routine and involved information that had been obtained from detainees, not the process of extracting it. "If something as dramatic as torture had been a subject of that meeting I would have remembered it," Graham says.

He also says that because staff was in attendance at the briefing, extremely sensitive subjects such as waterboarding would not have been broached.

But what truly impugns the credibility of the CIA's account is the agency's faulty recordkeeping. The Pelosi dispute is all about whether the CIA kept an accurate account of its congressional briefings. It didn't.

The CIA claimed that Graham was briefed about detainee treatment on four separate occasions in 2002. But when Graham checked the dates with his meticulous daily diaries he found that there were no briefings on three of the four dates the CIA cited.

Even CIA director Leon Panetta acknowledges that the CIA's records on its congressional briefings on interrogation techniques aren't necessarily reliable. He recently wrote in a letter to House Intelligence Committee Chairman Silvestre Reyes, D-Texas, "(Y)ou and the committee will have to determine whether this information is an accurate summary of what actually happened."

What makes the CIA so untouchable?
Are they above the law? Are they the law unto themselves?

What has the CIA done for us lately?
- They were totally clueless about the 9-11 attacks
- They botched the inteligence on WMDs "Slam Dunk"
- Their illegal interregation practices have made it impossible to prosecute terrorists
- They engaged in torture and destroyed America's reputation around the globe.

Why do we want to protect them?
Why do they deserve protection?

Pathetic is not the right word. A disgrace is more appropriate for you.

And the fact that you use an HV on your avatar is a slap in the face.

Go back to playing with your dolls little child. You are obviously out of your league.

Translation: I can't refute a damn thing you have said, so instead I will make personal attacks. What a fucking moron.

Do you have a point?
Do you have a defense of the CIA for their actions?
I didn't think so

I drove an uparmored HMMWV last week. How about you?

Once again, why is everyone so afraid of the CIA?

The agency has repeatedly screwed up. Why shouldn't they be accountable for what they do?
