Peter King
one Republican congressman's statements have cut through the political couching seen on both sides of the aisle.
That congressman is New York Republican Peter King who, according to Politico, stated that the GOP would need to adopt a "scorched-earth" procedural approach and grind all congressional activity to a halt if the Obama administration kow-tows to the far left and brings charges against those who either authorized or carried out waterboarding and other techniques used to gather information from noncompliant terrorist detainees. He went on from there: "If we have another 2,000 people killed, I want Nancy Pelosi and [liberal philanthropist] George Soros, John Conyers and Pat Leahy to go to the funeral and say, 'Your son was vaporized because we didn’t want to dump some guy's head under water for 30 seconds.'" |

Re: Peter King
Ol Lady Nancy was AOK with waterboarding in 2002, and didn't raise objections in 2007 when her 2002 approval was made public.
