George H.W. Bush rejects Pelosi charges of CIA lies - Washington Times

George H.W. Bush rejects Pelosi charges of CIA lies - Washington Times

KENNEBUNKPORT, Maine Former President George H.W. Bush, who as CIA director helped restore morale at the spy agency after a series of scandals in the 1970s, says House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was wrong when she asserted that the CIA lies "all the time" to Congress.

In a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Times a day after his 85th birthday - which he celebrated by skydiving from 10,000 feet to a perfect landing - the 41st president also took a mild swipe at President Obama for intervening in General Motors Corp.'s bankruptcy, ridiculed claims that the Republican Party is dead and urged patience in dealing with China, Russia and Iran.

Sigh...We would be much better off with this man in the White House.
