Nancy Pelosi Admits That Congress Is Scared Of The CIA

[A Simple Game]

69. Ok, you're right, I just don't understand. I do know that because I'm a liberal

it's my fault Democrats aren't elected and supposedly because of me the world will fall apart if Republicans win. Now after I do help get Democrats elected I'm told it doesn't matter because they are powerless no matter how long they are in office and I am foolish to even think they may have one iota of control.

And darn it, I thought I was paying attention since the late '60s. That's why I haven't voted for Republicans in thirty years and rarely vote for Democrats in the last twenty years. Oh by the way, I'm a rare liberal, I vote every year, don't think I've missed one since '72.

I have read the thread, even the big words, and yes in my world President Obama is the one defending the NSA and the CIA and drone strikes and taking credit for killing Osama, etc., etc., and from all evidence it appears to be true. Yes I really think he knows what is going on for the most part and is fine with it. I don't like what's going on, I even think much of it is illegal, and wish President Obama would try to stop some of it. If as you seem to know he has no control over any of it, let me know who does and I will be happy to contact them and let them know my feelings. Are the CIA and NSA under the Legislative or Judicial branch of the government, you know me, I just can't remember.

I also think some on DU have their heads in the sand, but that is just my opinion. Proposing that President Obama is ignorant of the facts, not allowed any control is a new defense for failed policy as far I know, can we expect more in the future? Seems to be a poorly thought out defense that shines a poor light on the President. Not sure it would pass muster in the BOG, but what do I know.
