Members of Congress were briefed on the subject of interrogation techniques more than 30 times since 2002, FOX News has learned. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was at the first meeting, and she raised no objections.

The first such briefing dealt with the interrogation of Abu Zubaydah, the Al Qaeda operations chief who ran the training camps in Afghanistan where the Sept. 11 hijackers were trained. Sources said California Rep. Nancy Pelosi, now the speaker of the House, attended the meeting with then-Rep. Porter Goss, R-Fla. (who later became CIA director), and she did not raise any objections.

The briefings were given to the chairmen and ranking members of the intelligence committees in the House and Senate until 2006. That could cover Sen. John Rockefeller, W.Va., and Rep. Jane Harman, Calif., both Democrats, as well as Sen. Pat Roberts, Kan., Sen. Lindsey Graham, S.C., Sen. Richard Shelby, Ala., and Rep. Pete Hoekstra, Mich., all Republicans.

Does this mean that Pelosi and Rockefeller can be arrested and charged as "war criminals"? Does it mean that the foolish Spanish judge can add their names to the "list"?

What if I say, "pretty please"?

[eureka!]

Pelosi is probably doubling up on Xanax what with this and the Harmon wire tap. LOL...

PREDICTION:

-The neo-marxists in the WH and Congress know they`re in trouble come the mid term elections.

-There will be no trials.

-There will be Congressional hearings and or a special prosecutor and or a “non-partisan” Commission.

-The plan is to drag Republicans through the mud, have the ability to make any outrageous claim they wish with no fear of prosecution themselves in Congressional hearings and the effect will be an 80 seat majority for the neo-marxist democrat party.
