Like so many Republicans, John Boehner (R-Ohio) House Minority Leader, appears to suffer from memory loss. Perhaps he should watch the footage of his previous interviews and compare his comments then to what he has to say now. What does he really mean and what does he truely believe?

6 Comments on John Boehner - What does he really mean?

In one clip, Boehner is speaking of his faith in the National Intelligence Estimate, which would, in his opinion, either have had to be inaccurate at the time of the interview or several months earlier.  He is addressing a wide swing in the conclusions of the CIA within a short period of time.  He is not accusing the CIA of being untruthful, just that one or the other estimate must have been off base.

In the other clip, he is (I am guessing) addressing Speaker Pelosi's accusations that the CIA 'misled' the Congress in regards to interrogation techniques in use at the time.  In this case, the CIA is informing congressional leaders of its own actions, and not what it thinks Iran is up to.  So, inaccurate information in this case would involve intentionally lying to Congress.

It's reasonable to believe that the CIA is capable of providing bad intelligence and still believe that the agency would not intentionally lie to Congress.

Patrick - you think?

Scott - yeah, the swarthy tan and 2 pack a cigs a day voice, the guy creeps me out.

Stewart - like many professional politicos, Boner has perfected talking out of both sides of his mouth.

Stewart, John Boneher Boehner has no idea what he means.  He's campaigning for 2012 and hoping no one is paid attention to what he said in the past!

John,

Thank you for your brilliant reply.  Your debating skills have so dazzled me that I am seriously reconsidering my position on this topic.
