WASHINGTON, May 18 (UPI) -- Republican critics of U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi say she should produce evidence of her claims the CIA lied to her about waterboarding detainees.
Pelosi, a California Democrat, has claimed that when she was briefed by the CIA on such "enhanced interrogation techniques" in September 2002, she was told they were not being used, only to find out from other lawmakers the next year that waterboarding had indeed been used on terrorism suspects.
