2. Unless, of course, they just made up the part about the two officials! Plus, who cannot see
through such total BS. The authors even included the disclaimer in the last sentence, to be sure to clarify that the front-loaded inferences were in fact BS.

"In a rare public statement last month that broached the subject of his classified objections, Feingold complained about administration claims of congressional support, saying that it was "not the case" that lawmakers briefed on the CIA's program "have approved it or consented to it." "

BULLSHIT ALERT: This story is not what it is presented as on DU. Just the opposite.

This is a propaganda piece, probably engineered to aid a cover-up of CIA failing to comply with the law and fully informing Congress of their war crimes. Now, that is easy to believe!

Read the whole story before you buy the bullshit Pelosi bashing. Excerpt:

Pelosi declined to comment directly on her reaction to the classified briefings. But a congressional source familiar with Pelosi's position on the matter said the California lawmaker did recall discussions about enhanced interrogation. The source said Pelosi recalls that techniques described by the CIA were still in the planning stage -- they had been designed and cleared with agency lawyers but not yet put in practice -- and acknowledged that Pelosi did not raise objections at the time.
