Oh and by the way I agree that if its proven she's lying, she should lose her job.

However I also think that all the people responsible for the torture program need to be prosecuted, right from the top person to give the order (Cheney or Bush?) down to the person who carried it out.

Most likely the lower members could apply the nuremburg defense.

That's why they aren't prosecuting anyone.  I'd bet a large part of the congress was in on it.

I'm not entirely sure, but doesn't that mean that the defense wouldn't work?

@The_vagabond. Is it illegal to ignore war crimes that are occuring or only to commit them? Pelosi may have know about the waterboardings but is there any accusation that she was involved in them occuring?
