ViceZilla’s Views

Congressional investigators have been given permission to review interrogation tapes of a terrorism suspect as part of an inquiry into the destruction of other tapes by the Central Intelligence Agency, according to a letter sent Thursday to the House Intelligence Committee.

The magical part of this story is the CIA previously claimed that they had videotaped only two detainees from Al Qaeda, and that those tapes were destroyed in 2005. Now all of a sudden, one of the tapes has in fact not been destroyed and is being offered for viewing to the House Intelligence Committee.

Something is afoot my friends. Something big. In the span of a week, there has been a sort of “conscience” clearing wave coming form the Bush Administration. What was once vehemently denied by the Bushies that “we don’t torture,” has come out in the form of a confession that yes indeed we do (or did) torture. And it was authorized by the President himself! Now the destroyed tapes of key interrogations have resurfaced, and are being forwarded to the House Intelligence Committee for their viewing pleasure. These turn of events are unusual to say the least!

So is the conscience of some in the Bush Administration getting too heavy to bear that they are giving in, or are all the lies that have been spun by this Administration gotten too complicated that they can’t tell any more lies to cover up the lies they lied about?
