Pelosi Knew

So, she DID know.

Ok, let’s assume for a moment that Pelosi is telling the truth (a bit of a stretch but I still leave cookies out for Santa and the Easter Bunny too). If she’s telling the truth then she’s incompetent. Thus, she was either informed and uncaring or incompetent and oblivious.

When these “techniques” were discussed, which she admits to being party to, what did she think they were going to do with them? She never asked? She never inquired about the administration’s decision on whether they were going to actually use these “techniques” or not? She was the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee. That’s INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE. Shouldn’t she have known SOMETHING?

If she knew about their usage then she’s an accessory to the crime and if she didn’t know then…well she’s still an accessory to the crime since it was her job to know and she failed to find out. Ignorance is no excuse for the law.
