Well, Sen. Coryn (sp) just said on Fox that they would then have to investigate Presidents Clinton and Carter as they too used these powers.Rush Limbaugh said that too.

I've been thinking about this. I've read on several threads this leaked and other leaked info has come out of his office with his approval. This is getting so out of balance, DOJ is now being forced to investigate the leaking of classified info. Could by any chance jay bird be caught for leaking this classified info, tried and jailed?
I guess this is nothing but more wishful thinking after seeing that Burglar got nothing but his classified status removed for 3 yrs and community service with a little probation time. DC on both sides of the aisle are always C each others A...s

I imagine this will be Tom Brokow's and Dan Rather's lead story tonight. Probably the lead story in tonight's Huntley-Brinkley Report.

Mark Levin has this brilliant post up on NRO's The Corner:
THE ROCKEFELLER FILES [Mark R. Levin]
I am curious about something. Jay Rockefeller has released a letter in which he complains about the NSA program on which he'd been briefed. He said the July 17, 2003 letter had been sealed and secured in the offices of the Senate Intelligence Committee. So, he goes to great lengths concealing his views for to voice them might reveal classified information. In his letter he expresses frustration that he can't even consult with staff or counsel, and he can't draw on independent legal or technical expertise. Dianne Feinstein said last night that she has not discussed this matter with Rockefeller because she's not on the Senate Intelligence Committee and it would be inappropriate for her to do so. Fine so far. But if Rockefeller went to such lengths to conceal his views, and if even Feinstein (a fellow senator) insists that she can't discuss this with Rockefeller (presumably, then, Rockefeller can't discuss it with her and other colleagues who weren't briefed), then from where might the New York Times have reported this tidbit in its original story:
"According to those officials and others, reservations about aspects of the program have also been expressed by Senator John D. Rockefeller IV, the West Virginia Democrat who is the vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee ..."
I can't imagine this trail would be difficult for leak investigators to follow. Who knew that Rockefeller had reservations? Maybe they should start with, say, Rockefeller?
That's going to leave a Mark!

Didn't Reid do this with regard to something else? Complained about something and the Chair said all he had to do was pick up the phone.

That's my senator. I doubt that he read it, but I sent him an e-mail yesterday asking the following:
Fight by the side of the President on this issue
Hold the leakers accountable.
THAT"S what I want to see, I want to see the perp walk. I want to see the Delay-like mug shots, and I want to see the seditiuos a-holes get exactly what they deserve.
And I might add, that history shows that FDR and Truman would support this. FDR came down hard on seditious behavior.

No .... remember they shut the senate down and put it behind close doorsYeah, back on November 1, Reid invoked "Standing Rule 21" and had the Senate shut down, the press and gallery thrown out, cameras, beepers and cellphones turned off, and the doors closed.

Probably the lead story in tonight's Huntley-Brinkley Report.J. Fred Muggs will get to the bottom of it tomorrow on Today.

Rockefeller is going to have to at least be removed from the Intelligence committee.
To: BigSkyFreeper; ken5050
Forgive me for saying so, because I know we shouldn't, but given how little "protection" there obviously is on capital hill computers (think Miranda, Rockefeller memo, etc)... is there no way we could hire someone to prowl for more crap like this?
Better yet, maybe I could pretend to be a Democrat *shudder* and get inside access. LOL!

We sooo need access to their computers. Can you imagine the seditious and traitorous memos we would find? If history is a clue [on what we'd find], we'd no longer have to worry about filibusters...
