The Dems are Either Okay with Pelosi’s Smear or a Criminal CIA. Which One?
A week ago, Nancy Pelosi, the person two heartbeats away from being the President of the United States, accused the CIA of committing a serious crime.

CIA Director Hayden let out a little more information about that nuclear reactor that Israel bombed in Syria. His agency estimated that it could have produced enough nuclear material for as many as two weapons within a year after it became fully operational. He also told reporters that the CIA didn’t tell the IAEA about [...]
