Bloggers on Nancy Pelosi’s press conference today:
TPM has the transcript.
Patricia Murphy in Politics Daily
Peter Wehner in Commentary:
So she has shifted her story once again, from originally insisting she was not told about waterboarding in a September 2002 briefing to now saying she was told it was not being employed. Accusing America’s intelligence agency of knowingly misleading a Member of Congress, and particularly a Member of the House Intelligence Committee, is quite an explosive charge. She better be able to prove it. And if she is lying — as Porter Goss, then ranking Republican on the House Committee who later served as C.I.A. Director, seems to believe — there will be an enormously high price for her to pay.
Game on! Two questions, though. First, why did it take you a week to remember this? Second, what about reports that one of your aides, Michael Sheehy, was briefed about waterboarding in early 2003 and passed the news along to you? Any comment on that?
