When the goon hits your eye with a big chunk of ply, that’s a’torture

Did Nancy Pelosi have briefings about torture before any of us knew?  If she did, that could go a very long way toward explaining why she took impeachment off the table during the Bush administration.  Perhaps she was covering her own ass.
