    House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer declined Thursday to backup Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s assertion that the CIA lied to Congress during debate on the House floor.

    “I have no idea of that, don’t have a belief of that nature because I have no basis on which to base such a belief. And I certainly hope that’s not the case,” Hoyer said in response to a question from Republican Minority Whip Eric Cantor.

    It seems Pelosi is out on that limb all by her self. It is very possible she will lose her speaker ship and may very well get in serious trouble.
