Again, Pelosi shows the GOP neocons are grasping at straws

It’s amazing how childish, petty and dirty politics can be sometimes. The recent Nancy Pelosi fiasco about her lying about being informed about waterboarding techniques by the CIA is just another example in a long list of them. Granted, Nancy Pelosi is a politician herself and so is Obama and their livelihood depends on being relevant to the people who puts them in power. They are no saints and they have their shortcomings. But everything is relative and isn’t whether the issue of Pelosi being informed or not a less important issue compared with the fact that the Bush administration authorized the use torture on detainees ? Of course, the GOP is trying to save what’s left of their credibility after this damning fact. The GOP is simply using Pelosi to taiji away the issue and to distract everyone from their real misdeeds. But what strikes me is their lame attempt at it that they are nearly screaming to us their intention to gloss over the torture issue by amplifying the Pelosi lie. Do they assume that we are all like stupid idiots who will just get swayed by their taiji tactics ? Do they naively assume that just because Nancy Pelosi lies we will just conveniently forget the blatant fact that they are the ones who have branded America as a country who tortures ? Not so fast, GOP necons and your media cronies. Fundamental moral principles will catch up to you one day…
