- Waterboarding: Congress Knew
December 11, 2007; Page A26
After three days of screaming headlines about the CIA destroying videotapes in 2005 of the "harsh" interrogation of two terrorists, it now comes to light that in 2002 key members of Congress were fully briefed by the CIA about those interrogation techniques, including waterboarding. One member of that Congressional delegation was the future House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi.

I'll say this for Nancy Pelosi. She has a hell of a figure for a 63 year old woman. That's about the only recognition worthy thing I've seen from her since she's had the wheel.
Mind you, I don't downplay the significance of that. She is a great improvement over Hastert.
