Catch 22: Torture Tapes Edition

The CIA, of course, is denying that they stiffed the 9/11 Commission.

The CIA held people in secret prisons and tortured them. The operative word here is "secret" and it doesn't take a Willard Romney to understand what that word means. What the CIA is saying is that because the 9/11 Commission didn't ask to see the tapes of secret torture sessions of unknown prisoners in black prisons, the CIA is off the hook for not furnishing documentation.

That, of course, is utter bullshit.

UPDATE: Yes, the 9/11 Commission did indeed ask for information on interrogations.
