It's getting clear as the nose on your face that Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, and her staff knew about torture, including waterboarding, and didn't object until it became a political hot potato. These days she needs to carry around a flour canister to powder her nose which grows longer by the minute. But who could be surprised? Nancy already threw out the fifth commandment, Thou shalt not kill, and the eighth commandment only forbids lying. Besides, she's the Speaker and rules are for others, especially the opposition.But who can blame poor Nancy? When the laws of God conflict with the laws of politics, what's a gal (even a devout Catholic gal like Nancy who knows more about the faith than the pope) to do? It was such an opportunity to bash the opposition!
There's plenty to criticize on the torture issue on both sides of the political spectrum, but the charade that Nancy et al occupy the moral high ground is rapidly disintegrating. Nancy on her high horse is plunging down the mudslide into the swamp with the people she's been criticizing. She concurred in the techniques by her silence and now she's lying about it.

If you're going to be a liar you need a really really good memory. Unfortunately Nancy can't remember what she had for breakfast this morning or what she learned at Sunday school. Probably never reads the legislation she votes for ... that's for people less distinguished than the speaker of the house. It would be funny if it were not so pathetic.
ReplyDeleteThe human memory fades about 1% per year after age 38. By 65, it is common to forget many things, and be normal.
ReplyDeleteTo call her a liar is wrong. We must give her the benefit of the doubt. Remember to confess that sin next time in confession.
Thanks for the laugh. This isn't an isolated example of Nancy's lies. As Speaker she has entered an entire new level of liberal spin control, twisting the message to suit her politics. With regard to confession, perhaps you need to examine your own conscience, Anonymous.
