What Nan knew
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi knew from September 2, 2002 that enhanced interrogation techniques, including waterboarding, were being used on jihadi detainees.
She knew. From Day One.
That’s what the CIA memo, published at Human Events, shows.
ABC News follows. Pelosi’s spokesperson says his boss has a “recollection” that is “different.”
Nancy Pelosi: Blink, blink.
Allahpundit surveys all the evidence contradicting Pelosi and comes to the only conclusion: Liar.

I’ll tell you what. If I have taken nothing away from this blog in the past few years (besides a change of heart on the 2nd amendment), it is a healthy disliking of nancy Pelosi.
She is slimy.
Wow,
Chapoutier, I see rays of hope! (Real hope, not he Obama kind.) If you keep reading this blog long enough you may become a conservative!
Maybe in a couple more years Chap you’ll step away from the dark side completely.
We get what we tolerate. This liar should be shunned by decent people, period.
Mass, get out of my head! lol
She looks like Iggy Pop in the Drudge Report’s pic!
Ack!
Not only did she know, she approved!
pelosi is a slime ball and lying is a way of life for her. she has what’s called selective forgetfullness.
The one question this seems to settle, conclusively, is that Democrats see issues of national security as mere political tools. The lives or deaths of their countrymen mean nothing to them except insofar as they allow them to hold on to power and live in a style they don’t deserve and could never come by honestly.
It’s appalling, it’s disgusting, and shame on us for allowing them to do it.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. Bush won the war on terror & this is their way of discrediting him.
Can you imagine if there had been another attack on the U.S. & it turned out Bush knew some detainees at Guantanamo could have been provided info to stop the attack but he didn’t approve the EITs? He’d be impeached if not dead!
And I could be wrong, but I think the only reason San Fran Nan gets botox is so that she can keep a straight face when talking about America’s values considering she represents San Fran!
Like most politicians lying is like breathing. It just comes naturally.
Did anyone really believe the little dictator, Nancy Know It All Pelosi, was unaware?
Was there any doubt she knew? Not from me.
Is anyone else shocked that these briefing records saw the light of day? Is BO’s administration throwing Nan under the bus? Or, will some heads roll at the CIA?
Liar or complete incompetence.
Now that is funny…..
OH Snap!
LOL! HAHAHA.
Articles like this is why I continue to read MM’s site!
In your face, Nancy!
Gets my vote for quote of the day.
Since Nancy Pelosi was briefed on the “enhanced interrogation techniques” early in the game, I suspect the Honorable Attorney General will wish to prosecute her first. Then, I suspect, he will want to go-after those evil doers who tortured those 40,000 military folks during their SERE training. Man, those courts will be tied-up for years!
Honorable and honest post, Chap. Well done.
Hey, the Obama administration has only been in office for about 100 days. The Ministry of Truth hasn’t had time to go back and re-write those CIA memos.
chap, in another couple of years after you see the havoc communism has wrought on the counties economy, you may find yourself even further convinced that the constitution ought to be followed. it was written to limit government from running roughshod over the people. did i mention the hedge fund and bank people, and the bond holders of chrysler and gm, and the mortgage holders of deadbeats who signed contracts, and the taxpayers who pony up their hard earned money for a government who has somehow found it is the taxpayers responsibility to educate, imprison, and provide healthcare and welfare for illegal immigrants to this country. forget roe v wade, and a right to privacy that exists for abortions, but doesn’t exist for travel in this land. let’s look at a 1.5 trillion dollar deficit this year which is largely a payback to political supporters and cronies of this administration. bush was wrong in not cracking down on runaway repubs in congress and their wild eyed spending, but obama has raised patronage and redistribution to an art form.
Chap, you’re seeing clearly. I believe we’ve both had our party leaders disappoint us far too often.
Term limits are our only hope. We’ve got to have a steady flow of new people that don’t barter our future for theirs.
We’ve got to start electing people that are from different walks of life. Bring in the plumbers, truck drivers, carpenters, teachers, pilots, engineers, physicians, home makers, factory workers, small business owners, etc…
Let’s be governed by our own and stop with this nonsense of lifetime politicians that don’t know the meaning of work and only view politics as a career path. Lindsay Graham, are you listening?
I know it has been said ad nauseum, but that picture of Pelousy is downright scary!
That is, unless it is her talking about it and only if it makes her look good and will embarass Bush and make Republicans look bad.
I have never seen so many people talking about what happens in briefings like the Democrats have been doing for a very long time now. This lying, hypocritical buffoon has been selling out our nation and has been getting Americans killed for the last 8+ years, even more since she was made Speaker. \
Even when presented with facts, she is still able to lie and claim to know nothing. Just how long will it be until the American people wake up and stick a finger down their throats to vomit out the Kool-Aide they have been chugging for so long? My God, but this is so insulting to listen to for anyone with even a hint of intelligence.
It is far past the time when these Liberals in Congress get investigated and charged with perjury where relevant and treason and sedition.
Where oh where are the Conservatives with gonads?
Pelosi has repeatedly lied about what the Bible says.
If she’ll lie about that, she’ll lie about anything.
Can we get her to lie about this under oath,
and then impeach her for perjury?
My theory is that Obama and Rahm orchestrated this situation intentionally. When you consider how quickly Obama has reached the throne with virtually no accomplishments to his name, I would be surprised if Nancy’s nose wasn’t completely out of joint. This situation makes her life very unpleasant. The Chicago way.
Actually, it very well may be inappropriate for her to talk about the briefings. However, that is not good enough, if she felt the techniques were torture.
There is something in legal and business ethics called the “noisy withdrawal.” Basically, if your client is doing something bad, you may be bound by some privilege not to divulge what that is. However, the attorney should withdraw representation and let it be known, without being specific, that there is a serious problem going on.
The fact that you might lose your seniority or leadership position does not excuse being silent and thus complicit.
Isn’t it funny that if a person goes before a congressional and tells a lie they may be jailed. Why do we allow congressmen and senators to lie to us! Shouldn’t they be held to the same standard?
Isn’t it a shame they are not held to the same standard that the military uses? Wouldn’t it be nice if we could charge them with Article 134 and boot them? Loss of pension, and a Big Chicken Dinner? (Bad Conduct Discharge for you civilians)
And seriously, why isn’t there a process that could do this? Ask your representative if they think their conduct is less important than that of the military? Seeing as how they are always flapping their gums about the conduct of the military, seems only fair they hold themselves to the same standards. Of course there would be a lot of turnover but that I see as a good thing.
Quite possible.
It’s also possible that the Clintonistas are behind this.
Remember the role Nancy Pelosi played in ensuring that Barack,
not Hillary, got the Democratic Party nomination.
If those Democrats who proclaim water-boarding to be “torture” are genuine in their view, and are not merely pushing it as cover for their BDS motive in going after the former admin., then they will demand Pelosi resign her speaker-ship, if not her seat.
Speaker Gingrich resigned both, and for much less reason, when he was attracting too much negative attention for the party to move its agenda forward in Congress.
Silly Nancy,
Tricks are for Clintons (Obama too)
Pelosi is a lying beotch.
According to the ABC report on the intelligence memos released, Zubaydah was waterboarded 83 times in August.
And Pelosi is trying to say those briefing her just happened to leave that out?
I’m sure she would have raised all kinds of hell if they briefed her as she said…that it was only a possible technique, then she found out later that they had actually used it prior to her briefing.
Your moron voters in San Fransicko might buy that stupidity but not many else will.

Forgive me if I am re-posting this link, but everyone here should read what it says and give it some thought.
We could be we are seeing a clear violation of criminal law, in addition to a despicable example of the “politics of personal destruction” by the people at the top of this administration.

The “politics of personal destruction” was always a Democrat[ic Socialist] tactic, not a Republican one.
It’s the Alinsky way.
Democrat[ic Socialist]s always project their bad behavior onto Republicans.
Like that “Culture of Corruption” is multiple times more true of the Democrat[ic Socialist] Party than of the Republican Party. There’s corruption in both, but the lion’s share is on the Democrat[ic Socialist] side of the aisle.
What kind of mumbo-jumbo is she emitting? I wonder if Ms. Pelosi still recognizes her children …maybe on her good days.
Edit: “Speaker Gingrich resigned both [positions], and for much less reason, when he was attracting too much negative attention for the party….”
Only the blinded far left should be fooled by her false statements. That would pretty much be her district and any other clueless liberal bloggers.
As an independent, I’m noting to both republicans and democrats this polarization is going to destroy the developed world from the inside out.
My thanks to those who profess blind loyalty to members of their political party from the republicans in PA to the far-left, al quedia-allied liberals in San Francisco.
