WASHINGTON (AP) - House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday she won't talk any
more about her charge that the CIA lied in 2002 about using waterboarding on
terrorism suspects.
"I have made the statement that I'm going to make on this," she told
reporters at a Capitol Hill news conference. "I don't have anything more to
say about it. I stand by my comment."
But Republicans aren't letting this one slide
Ken Spain, spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee,
issued a statement after the news conference calling Pelosi a political
liability to the Democratic party.
"Her obsession with the previous administration and her disdain for
America's intelligence officials has reduced her to cheerleader status
within the far left wing of her party and a distraction to the substantive
debate over how to best move our economy forward," said Spain.
Earlier this month, Pelosi told reporters that she had not been told that
waterboarding had been used against terrorism suspects, even though it had
been. When asked whether she was accusing the CIA of lying to her, she said
"yes."
Pelosi has asked the CIA to declassify information supporting her claims.
The CIA sent lawmakers its notes and memos on 40 congressional briefings on
the interrogation techniques. But that document has been found to include
several errors, leaving in question exactly what Pelosi was told.
The GOP has seized on her accusation that the CIA misled Congress,
contending that the California Democrat's remarks have demoralized the
intelligence community. House Republicans on Thursday demanded that a
bipartisan panel investigate her allegations.
"To have this charge out there and not have it resolved I think is damaging
to our intelligence efforts, and certainly will have a chilling effect on
our intelligence professionals around the world," said House Republican
leader John Boehner, R-Ohio.
Democrats beat back the proposal, calling it a political ploy. Republicans
Ron Paul of Texas and Walter Jones of North Carolina joined Democrats in a
252-172 vote to block the resolution.
Upon leaving the news conference on Friday, Pelosi declined to answer a
question about whether she had called CIA Director Leon Panetta to discuss
the matter further.
Instead, Pelosi had stuck faithfully to her script, saying Democrats were
making progress on other issues.
"We're going forward in a bipartisan way for jobs, health care, energy for
our country," she said. Regarding the CIA's briefing of Congress on
waterboarding, "I won't have anything more to say about it."
