John Boehner: Pelosi and Dems 'Were Well Aware'

Republican Minority Leader John Boehner held a Capitol Hill press conference just after Speaker Nancy Pelosi accused the CIA and the Bush administration of lying about their 2002 briefings to her.

A reporter asked Boehner, "The House Speaker said the CIA should release all the details on what members were briefed. She also said that the CIA deliberately misled her, time and time again, and did not tell her --"

Boehner responded, "I think the problem is that the Speaker has had way too many stories on this issue. And as I said earlier, I think she's posed more questions than she has provided answers. And at the end of the day, I know what these briefings are.

"I was not a member of the leadership at a time when these briefings occurred, so I can't relate the extent of these briefings. But other members in our conference were in these briefings.

"And when you look at the number of briefings that the Speaker was in, and other Democrat members of the House and Senate, it's – it's pretty clear that they were well aware of what these enhanced interrogation techniques were. They were well aware that they had been used. And it seems to me that they want to have it both ways. You can't have it both ways."
