The Sleep Time and Rise "n" Shine Thread for 5/22-23/09: The John Kerry Quotes About the CIA No One Talked About

Via beachmom at the Kos, John Kerry joins Nancy Pelosi in saying the CIA lies. And yet, no one on television noticed it at all.

The Central Intelligence Agency would never lie to Congress about breaking the law, would it?

Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) knows a little something about that. During the late 1980s, he led a two-and-a-half year investigation into the CIA, the Nicaraguan Contras and cocaine trafficking, and the senator was on the receiving end of CIA deception.

So, would the CIA ever lie?

"In the case of one person who was tried and convicted, they lied. He overtly lied and was prosecuted for it by the government of the United States," said Kerry just off the Senate floor. "He was the director of operations for the region."

And to close, Telvin Campbell, as always.

Good night, or good morning.
