Even the Nazis allowed Red cross visits. It is strategically wise for us to do the same.

We can only hope that if it isn't a 'Rat, it's a RINO.

Well,,,,,I suppose our side could use that tactic, but I doubt it in this case.

By the way, how the heck do you pronounce "Szczytno-Szymany?"

You're giving the "stupid" party way too much credit again.

I hope the Senate and House will get going on this investigation really soon. Did not McClain introduce a piece of legislation to protect reporters from having to testify about their sources? Hummmmmmmmm!!! Wonder who leaked the information to a Washington Post reporter about all this stuff?????? Say it ain't so, Johnny boy!!!

It could be a Republican this time. Doesn't matter to me.

Nor to me. All I care about is that we investigate what WE feelis important and not what Howard Dean wants us to investigate.

If a Republican Senator leaked this, let him hang.

"...it won't be long before the media will be making comparisons with nasty regimes that we don't want mentioned in the same sentence with the U.S.A."

And why do we call "nasty regimes" nasty? Perhaps because they put people into secret prisons without benefit of trial or oversight? If that's what we do, how can we claim to be different?

"I wonder if Red Cross already knew about the prisons... I hope we have had some kind of Red Cross oversight - they are pretty good at keeping quiet and that will go a long way to allow us to claim the prisons were acceptably humanitarian."

Am I the only one who is disturbed that things that are not "acceptably humanitarian" may be going on there? When you lose the moral high ground, you have lost. Period.

Didn't he lose his membership in the top secret, hush-hush national security committee when he was discovered to have been "Leaky Leahy"?

He was on the Senate Intelligence Committee, but was allowed to resign before being kicked off for leaking classified material.

They are called nasty regimes because they sought to conquer and enslave. We would like nothing more than to get our troops back home. They seek to pillage the countries they fight and take everything - we help rebuild them and tax ourselves to do it. They set up puppet governments that must conform their master's will - we will accept whatever democratically elected government the people choose.

Somehow I feel McNut is up to this by his neck. His constant prisoner crap leaves me slightly suspicious

It's MUCH more important to find out who is NOW leaking CIA info in the midst of war than to REOPEN an investigation that has already been investigated at least twice!
We ALL know that both Dems and Republicans thought the same thing about intelligence about Iraq since 1998....the Dems have simply "changed their minds" after the war. What we DON"T know is why the CIA is leaking info that is affecting the War against Terror now...and that takes priority!

Right, and with the power of chairmanship, we control the oversight function. The only drawback is public relations, and the Dems are already doing all they can to make us look bad. Just do the right thing, and the media will be forced to cover it.

Lott said that much of the information contained in Priest's story was discussed at a meeting of Republican senators and Cheney on Nov. 1, the day before the Post story was published.

Maybe a 'dim mole', is the republican he is referring too.
