Jed Babbin: Rockefeller IS the source of the leak on the NSA wiretaps..will he take a polygraph?
John Batchelor program..WABC radio

Posted on 02/03/2006 8:47:20 PM PST by ken5050

Turned on the radio, happened to catch the last segment of the John Batchelor show. He was interviewing Jeb Babbin....who many of us know and respect, and read his columns. I was absolutely stunned by what Babbin just said...hadn't seen/heard it anywheres..and thought it merits reposting for your benefit....

Has there ever been a sitting Senator indicted for anything? The way to get this turkey is non stop pressure from the NEW MEDIA. Every day, all day. It would be better then a trial. Let Rocky and the Rats defend, we need to attack, and attack some more. This is not the place for GWB. Let him express concern ,but let us keep the pressure on the Rats.

"Did you ever notice that Rockefeller always looks guilty or like he is hiding something? I am serious, his demeanor and body language make him look like a Dog that peed on the carpet. "

I think that he may have "screwed the pooch" this time.

I hope it does cause a firestorm .. it's time for the dems and their "get Bush" tactics to be accounted for.

This is treason in my book - and any senator who commits such an act SHOULD NO LONGER BE ALLOWED IN THE SENATE OR ANYWHERE IN THE GOVERNMENT.

I hope to hell this admin is not A FRAIDY CAT about this just because of what the WP or the NYT may say. And .. for that matter - both of those outlets are next in line to be indicted!!

While the dems are whining about a "culture of corruption" - they forgot to look behind their own doors.

I don't agree .. Rockerfeller did admit it was he that wrote the intel memo which Miranda found on the computer and exposed. So .. if Rocky wrote that memo .. he is more than capable of leaking the classified info.

Because at the hearing yesterday .. After a few stern words to the Dems with regard to their questions ... Pat Roberts mention the FBI asking members (I think last year) to take one and that Roberts thought it was an insult

I thought it was odd that he brought it up too. I'm trying to remember various exchanges from that hearing given this news and what I keep coming back to is Rockefeller's last statement, which followed Roberts odd comment. I don't listen to him enough but he sounded very emotional in talking about his belief in the law. Negroponte followed that with a last sentence saying that all of the panel members take an oath and they take it seriously.

If it's common knowledge among them that Rockefeller is the guy, that makes that last exchange pretty dramatic. Didn't Rockefeller also ask if the program was covert?

Yeah! Memogate! He wrote the senate intel memo that Miranda discovered on their computers.

As I understand, having a security clearance means that you have to submit to a polygraph at any time. If he refuses to take the polygraph, no big deal, it just means that he can't be ranking member on the committee. Look for him to step down from that role in the committee.

I agree with you .. and Jay needs to be make an example of what happens when you leak NSA secrets to the media or anyone else.

I hope they go after him. He is NOT ABOVE THE LAW. He knew exactly what he was doing and he did it because he HATES BUSH - which is the most juvenile and stupid reason to do anything.

He said flat out that they know that Rockefeller is the source of the leak to the NY Times.

Well, surprise, surprise. (A fairly large contingent of us on FR knew it too.)

If he actually did it he should fall on his sword literally, and right away, as that would be the best thing for the Congress and the country. However, knowing the arrogance of most Congressmen I doubt that "doing the right thing" is in their vocabulary.

Being a Rockefeller means never having to say you're sorry.

"( I truly hope for two things before I die. The death of the Democrat Party, and the death of Islam.) "

I am quickly coming to the conclusion that these two things are really one thing. They are both enemies of the free world, and the American culture.

He's got a track record of shooting off his mouth while trying to sink the USA

It must be so "interesting" to be an international man like JR, and to hold no allegiance to the country that gave one's family such a position. He must consider himself an untouchable.

Your tagline:

(I don't have anything nice to say...)

reminds me of a favorite quote from Alice Roosevelt, TR's daughter. She was a great gossip, and was fond of saying this at dinner parties and social gatherings in Washington all through her long life: "If you have nothing good to say about anyone -- come sit beside me."
