Nancy Pelosi is complaining because, she says, the CIA lied to her about torturing prisoners in Guantanamo and other places. It is probably true, but that is another story.
Below is the measured response from a "senior" Republican, an elected official, a presumably responsible member of the American Government.
"I think her accusations against our terror-fighters are irresponsible," said Sen. Kit Bond of Missouri, the senior Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee. "It's outrageous that a member of Congress would call our terror-fighters liars."
The CIA torturers have magically transformed into "our terror fighters." Even George Orwell would have been a little taken aback, I suspect.
Remember, enough people actually went and voted for this prick in sufficient numbers to get him elected.
That it was in Missouri may be the reason, but is not an excuse.
I have put on a picture of "Kit", in case you happen to cross his path and get a chance to throw your shoes at him. If you do so, don´t bother taking them off first.
