Newt is a flaming liar. Pelosi would have violated the state secrets act if she had said anything publicly about what she was told in top secret briefings.

The fat disingenuous slob knows that. He is slime mold. Despicable POS.

As usual, Newt has his finger in the wind and sees that it's fashionable for the Right to go after an Evil Liberal Socialist Democrat. He's trying to obfuscate the fact that no one at the briefing (which included Republicans, by the way, who should have been just as obligated to speak up) could say anything at all as it was classified.

They have their focus now. For the next few weeks they will try to lay the blame for what happened at Nancy Pelosi's feet and crow from the hilltops about how the Democrats hate and want to prosecute the Patriotic Americans that populate the CIA. There will be no reasoning with them on the blogs, on the radio or on the teevees. No matter what truth is revealed, no matter what evidence is presented to contridict their insane babbling, they will cling to this lie like the last hope for their resurgence that it is.

They will see a brief renaissance from this. This is the best thing to happen for Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity and Scarborough in a long time.

Sorry- but the state secret act was passed in 2008-

110th CONGRESS

2d Session

S. 2533
To enact a safe, fair, and responsible state secrets privilege Act.

IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES

January 22 (legislative day, January 3), 2008
Mr. KENNEDY (for himself, Mr. SPECTER, and Mr. LEAHY) introduced the following bill; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A BILL
To enact a safe, fair, and responsible state secrets privilege Act.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled...

This had no effect in 2002.

First of all, what about the ranking Republican? Why was he/she not expected to speak up and voice his/her opposition to torture?

Secondly, how did preventing a sadistic administration from torturing POW's just for shits and grins become Pelosi's responsibility? That simply makes NO logical sense to me.

BillM that was never enacted.. Sorry.. the bill you are talking about was never passed into law. died in committee

I think Newt sack will try to slither out of his hypocrisy by saying, "Not that there really WAS anything to report, but if SHE, Pelosi, BELIEVED there was then she should have said something about, indeed she had an obligation...yadda, yadda, yadda." That's how I see it playing out. Of course, Newt sack is full of shit.

hey Newt how are your 3 former wives doing?

Every time newt is introduced as former speaker of the house, I have to scream, "You forgot the part about how he resigned from the position in disgrace!"

It's fairly obvious what Gingrich means.

Are you guys this desperate?

It's fairly obvious that the republican party is desperate when they bring back disgraced crooks like Newty and Tommy DeLay to defend their criminals in the BushCo conspiracy.

How is that Family Values pretence holding up?
