Obama and his boys released the official memos detailing interrogation techniques that intelligence people used against terrorists. However, they withheld accompanying information that explained the methods were successful in thwarting future terrorist attacks. Why would an American president take away the ability of our intelligence people to gather information that might save American lives, and, at the same time betray his duplicity by withholding the most significant part of the story? Now he is now compounding his duplicity by suggesting the Justice Department look into prosecution of those responsible for interrogation of terrorists. It is puzzling. Does Obama do something such as this to mollify his extremist left-wing base, or is he just the witless, pacifist, wimp I have imagined him to be?
Like the proverbial rats abandoning the ship, the DemPols are running away from the issue, afraid they might suffer from the association. Several of them, most notably, political animal Nancy Pelosi, are lying like - well, lawyer/politicians - saying they never knew of the CIA interrogation techniques. These same liars are asking for hearings to do what DemPols always do, shift the blame away from themselves. In this case, to the lawyers who only provided requested opinions on the legality of the techniques. Documentation shows that the CIA briefed Pelosi and the other rats multiple times on the details of the interrogations, and that Congress approved them.
