Minority Leader, John Boehner admits that the CIA lies to congress (Video)

frackin' h/t to Jed over at Daily Kos


Transcript

BLITZER: Last year, the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, Pete Hoekstra of Michigan, he said this in response to a case that he was watching very closely — an American citizen who was killed in a plane crash — a coverup, he alleged, involving the CIA.

He said these words: “We cannot have an intelligence community that covers up what it does and then lies to Congress.”

That’s what Pete Hoekstra said in 2008.

BOEHNER: Pete Hoekstra did say that, and the inspector general at the CIA did an investigation, and it became clear that some CIA operatives did in fact cover this up.



BLITZER: You agree that the CIA then lied to Congress?

BOEHNER: I know as much about this case as Pete Hoekstra does, and the inspector general did in fact do an investigation, produced a report, and frankly supported, I think, Pete’s claims.

Again, anyone believing the CIA does not lie, stop drinking and smoking!!! They are professional LIARS, that is their job.

Lying to congress is a crime.

If your really believe that the CIA mislead Nancy Pelosi then appoint a Special Prosecutor to investigate what Pelosi said and what CIA did.

But let's be clear: If Pelosi is the one who lied, she should resign.
