I saw Tony Snow interviewing Heather Wilson, the Arizona or New Mexico Republican representative, who is a member of the House Intelligence Committee, but NOT in the elite 8...
She is the one with her nose WAY out of joint, and demanded an investigation by the whole House...
Tony tried his best to get her to acknowledge that the fewer the people that are privvy to the actual operational components of this, the better....but, she balked...by saying that the Intelligence Committee in the House has knowledge of all kinds of classified information and hasn't leaked them...
She would NOT be appeased...trust me....she has her panties in a major wad...and I don't think she even cares what consequences may come from this...which makes me even more mad in her case...because I believe she is ex-military.
There is a simple response to folks like Heather Wilson. And it is irrefutable:
Alcee Hastings is a Democrat member of the House Intelligence Committee.
Done deal. Not an option (unless we are allowed a firing squad as part of all Committee hearings).
And the premise that "the Intelligence Committee in the House has knowledge of all kinds of classified information and hasn't leaked them" is laughable on its face. This statement, in and of itself, should cause her removal from the committee.
Republican or not, she is an idiot.
