Subject: That was a lot of "homework" but it was worth it, just to see what I'll conclude...

I think Nancy Peloci gave an excellent interview in which she educated the questioner about how the government process works and what Committee does and what the House is planning to do.

About the CIA: she ponited out, correctly, that it is the Republicans who are creating a distraction, right now because the don't want the Committee to dig into CIA's actions. Don't you want to know the truth? That's the one thing that's beautiful about a democtratic process, the truth does come out eventually. I liked how she phrased it that the CIA might have the custody of intelligence but the Committe has the right to find out if the methods to get that intelligence were proper and lawful...

She answered questions about healthcare being a right not a priviledge.

Most of all she again and again answered that she only speaks for the House and not the Senate.

I thought that the interviewer didn't have a neutral tone at all. I even went to the trouble of listening only to the questions by themselves, editing out the answers, just to confirm my first impression.

In conclusion, I probably have a completely different take on this whole ball of wax, because I don't have a stake in all of this. I'm just interested in politics, that's all...
