Enhanced Interrogation Techniques: Little Evidence That Harsh Treatment Used By CIA Produced Any Counter-Terrorism Breakthroughs

The road to our neverending wars in Afghanistan and Iraq lead right through JohnMurtha's seat in Congress, and witnessed by Paul Kanjorski.
To my knowledge, Paul Kanjorski is the one of several witnesses (all congressmen) who can directly place GeorgeWBush at the scene of the conspiracy to deceive Congress into backing the attack on Iraq with evidence falsified by the CIA.
It's through Kanjorski's account that we learn the BushCheney Administration's scheme, which included the CIA's fabricating photographs for the explicit purpose of deceiving Congress into authorizating the use of military force in Iraq.

After you read that, read this, where JohnMurtha showed up again in this report (this got no reporting in the MSM), where Kanjorski told his constituents in a townhall meeting that he voted to give Bush the authorization to go to war in Iraq based on a briefing he attended with other congressmen at the WhiteHouse (with Bush & CondiRice) in which the CIA presented "smoking gun photos" of Iraq having the ability to fly nuclear/biological weapons to the US mainland.
The photos later turned out to have been faked by the CIA, staged in the southwest US:

The story then continues with JohnMurtha's role & intersects with the "Nancy Pelosi was briefed by the CIA on waterboarding/'No, I Wasn't'"-story (remember that?). It appears that Murtha was used by the CIA & BushCo to deceive the 'Gang of 8' and Congress about the waterboarding/torture. With this story (read here), we get some insight into how Cheney got all of his & Bush's crimes past congressional oversight (through his knowledge of how congressional subcommittees operated, from his earlier stint as a congressman):
Here's a background clip of the person that Marcy Wheeler/emptywheel references in the link above, Greg Sargent, who in this clip is being interviewed by Rachel Maddow about the Pelosi-CIA story:

There's a part 1 to the clip, which is the lead-in where Rachel summarizes the situation before she gets to Greg Sargent:
