Boehner and Gingrich forced to admit: CIA has lied to COngress before

(Daily Kos)
In an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer on Wednesday, House Republican Leader John Boehner conceded that despite his attacks on Speaker Pelosi for accusing the CIA of lying to Congress, he too believes that the agency has lied to Congress.

Boehner said the CIA had lied to Republican Congressman Pete Hoekstra last year about the 2001 downing of a plane in Peru carrying an American missionary and her daughter.


...and Newt Gingrich:


So why all the mock outrage over Pelosi suggesting that the CIA lied to her about waterboarding? It's not like the CIA hasn't lied before. That being the case, the only reasonable explanation for the outrage is that Boehner and Gingrich are hypocritical douchebags and the GOP as a whole has absolutely nothing else to offer America.
