‘It’s Disgraceful’: Scarborough on Dems Trying to ‘Cover Their Ass’ on Torture

HAASS: "What I think people have to do in this is put your heads back to where we were a decade ago."
SCARBOROUGH: "Right."
HAASS: "And after 9/11 when there was a fear of future 9/11's -- and sure the United States did things in which in retrospect are highly controversial. In some cases you can argue whether they worked or not, whether they were warranted or not. But I do think it's hard 10 or 12 years later from a kind of antiseptic distance to look at these things and say all these things were flat out wrong."
SCARBOROUGH: "Richard, Dianne Feinstein, Nancy Pelosi, Jay Rockefeller, and a cast of other liberals that were shocked, shocked, shocked that this was going on in 2005 and 2006 when the reports started coming out were fully briefed on it in 2002. Dianne Feinstein in particular knew -- had more information about what was going on. And Jay Rockefeller as well had -- they all. All the liberals that are acting so shocked, safely removed from 9/11 were the very ones saying what else can we do in 2002? This is preposterous. This is -- you know, they ask people to go out and try to save Americans from the next 9/11 and they get information and then a decade later when they're trying to cover their ass they put out a skewed report like this that is a political statement and a political document. It's outrageous and it's disgraceful. And the truth will come out what they were saying in 2001 and 2002. History books will reveal it. They knew everything that was going on. And to do this even five years later, especially ten years later, is a disgrace to the men and women that put their asses on the line to stop the next 9/11 from happening. And while they were doing it Dianne Feinstein, Nancy Pelosi, Jay Rockefeller and all of these other moral giants were saluting and asking what else could be done. And now they're shocked? It's disgraceful."
