White House Delays Release of CIA Report

(AP)  The Obama administration says it needs two more months to review an internal CIA report on the agency's secret detention and interrogation program before making it public.

The Justice Department originally had said it intended to release the report in June as part of a lawsuit, but department officials said Thursday they need until the end of August.

The report by the CIA's inspector general questioned the effectiveness of harsh interrogation methods, such as waterboarding, employed by CIA interrogators during the Bush administration.

Justice Department spokeswoman Tracy Schmaler said the report contains information that overlaps with other CIA documents that they also must review and release together by a court-ordered Aug. 31 deadline.

You could not second guess anyone anyway. You have a biased objective. That being said, you could not do it if you wanted too. You're not for honesty, you're for what you want to believe.

What I see coming out of this comment that Bush is great, yea, and you have the audacity to question I am for honesty comment.

But he can propose, offer for "debate", and pass 1,200 page legislation in 24 hours. I guess he has no need to understand and examine the implications of Pelosi's laws.

I would never attempt to second guess this President. This one is smart.

lib,

You never have anything to contribute. You simply get on this site and do your namecalling and spew your venom. What the he11 is wrong with you? Too early toilet training?

I expected the Obama administration to undress the ex-Prez but it looks like what we voted for is very much like what we voted against. I want the truth and Obama and the Dems say, "You can't handle the truth". Grow a spine and show me the man behind the curtain (for the last 8 years). I can take it.
