No surprise here:
The House on Thursday rejected a Republican call for a special investigation into whether Speaker Nancy Pelosi was told in September 2002 that the C.I.A. was subjecting terror suspects to waterboarding.
On a mainly party line vote of 252 to 172, Democrats upheld a ruling that a request for a special panel to look into the conflicting accounts of Ms. Pelosi and the intelligence community did not merit special treatment, but should be proposed as regular legislation. [...]
Democrats said the effort was purely partisan, a feeble attempt by Republicans who have found little other success countering Democrats in recent months. They circulated a document listing times when top Republicans had challenged the credibility of the C.IA.
Well, Republicans have had overwhelming success in keeping this story about what Pelosi knew and when she knew it, so why not investigate what really happened? Then maybe we can get back to the issue of illegal torture used to justify Dick Cheney's war.
