On Thursday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi repeated her assertion that she was never briefed an the actual use of waterboarding as an interrogation technique. She further accused the CIA of misleading Congress at the time waterboarding was happening and said the agency’s memos of those briefings were flawed. So why is Pelosi squirming so much? How well did she really understand what was happening in 2002? Were Democrats far more hawkish behind closed doors than they were in front of the TV cameras? And what impact do her accusations against the CIA have on the work currently being done by the intelligence community? We ask former New Mexico Rep. Heather Wilson. She also explains why she believes President Obama is the last person who should lecture her state or anyone else about fiscal responsibility.
