I don’t think we should lose track of why Pelosi lied: it was so she could preach from the moral high ground (as she would define it) and damn the Bush administration, using the word “torture” as her primary rhetorical club.

Now that she’s owned up to the truth, and if this were in any way a just world, she’d be demonized by the MSM for her prior anti-Bush-anti-torture demagoguery, as well as for being a liar.

Alas, this is not a just world, at least wrt the MSM.
