First, they were tricked into war, and now we find they were tricked into accepting enhanced interrogation techniques they found morally unacceptable and worthy of criminal prosecution for those who devised them.
Oops! But if Hoekstra has anything to do with it, the play-dumb Democrats will be revealed. Now that Obama has opened the door to prosecution of those who advised on the interrogation techniques, Hoekstra would like to make the attendance of the Congressional interrogation briefings as transparent as the techniques themselves now are:
I have asked Mr. Blair to provide me with a list of the dates, locations and names of all members of Congress who attended briefings on enhanced interrogation techniques.
Fox reports there may have been as many as 30 of those briefings since 2002, and Hoekstra argues a list of briefings will show Democrats were made aware "early and often."
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.
Obama is reportedly not in favor of a truth commission on this subject, but the far Left can take heart. If you don't like Obama's opinion, just wait 24 hours. That usually works.
