Dem Lawmaker: CIA Should Apologize to Al-Qaeda
2014-12-12
Democrat Jackie Speier (D-CA) told MSNBC yesterday that the Central Intelligence Agency should apologize to Al-Qaeda terrorists.
Hat tip at the Gateway Pundit who has the video of Rep. Speier beclowning herself at the link. Priceless.

#12  I sat in on meetings with her when she was a San Mateo Co. Supervisor. Dumb as a post; her only claim to fame was getting shot by Jim Jones' thugs.

#11  Jackie seems to have forgotten that some folks simply do not respond to rational discourse, or maybe she has PTSD. From Wiki P:

Speier entered politics by serving as a congressional staffer for Congressman Leo Ryan. Speier was part of his November 1978 fact-finding mission organized to investigate allegations of human rights abuses by the Reverend Jim Jones and his Peoples Temple followers, almost all of whom were American citizens who had moved to Jonestown, Guyana, with Jones in 1977 and 1978.[5] Speier was one of two members of the mission who made wills before traveling to Jonestown.[11] Several Peoples Temple members ambushed the investigative team and others boarding the plane to leave Jonestown on November 18. Five people died, including Congressman Ryan. While trying to shield herself from rifle and shotgun fire behind small airplane wheels with the other members of the team, Speier was shot five times and waited 22 hours before help arrived.[12] That same day, over 900 of the remaining members of the Peoples Temple died in Jonestown and Georgetown in a mass murder-suicide.

#10  By all means Dem reps should as a courtesy arrange to meet AQ in a location of their chosing & apologize. Take MSNBC to cover it fairly, accurately & unafraid.

#8  So instead of making this as we will f u in the middle of the night if you f with us, to some tears in a bottle bs.

Exit question: since pols are in selfie grandstanding, how far out are we from a prominent politician publicly converting as an appeasement stunt?

The intellectual prowess of goldfish being fed.

#5  Maybe Jackie wouldn't mind being a sex slave or be beheaded--(just so long as she apologizes for her transgressions before she loses her head?). Sometimes, I think most of the insane people have moved to California and gotten elected to office instead of collecting welfare--well, maybe they are still collecting welfare when they get elected to office. What a bloomin idiot.
