I was nodding in some agreement..until the last sentence..

[shield]

I've emailed, called and faxed Frist demanding an investigation into Rockefeller along with others leaking classified info. I've also done the same to others in the senate. You think a secret investigation could be taking place?

Nora O'Donnell hosting for Chrissy tonight?..she'll go ape over this..

That may require a live thread.....hehe

Thanks.

Woodward being CIA operatives.

LOL.

Bob has been CIA since he was riffling through Kissinger's briefcase for the Joint Chiefs of Staff..........

[eureka!]

Re#659 Thanks. It sums up W's strategery well...

[Recovering Hermit]

I share your enthusiasm...but nothing will come of this.

This 21st century America, where treason is passed off as "free speech".

Bush's fault, somehow.

[hummingbird]

The usual suspects Pelosi, Reid, Lil Dick Turban, Jihad Cynthia Mckinney etal.

Those you listed - and others - can look you right in the eye & LIE as if they had some kind of protective cloaking shield preventing them from being detected or held accountable for their lies.

They lack the "moral compass gene," IMVHO.

[beyond the sea]

ABC Radio just quoting some professor saying the DOJ leak investigation does a disservice to the public since the media is attempting to protect all Americans.

?????????

[clawrence3]

He's probably not supposed to - you simply asked "How on earth would they even ever know about the program?" and I gave you one plausible way.

Story at ABC News:

Justice Department Has Launched an Investigation Into Leak of NSA's Domestic Surveillance Program

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=1456114

The Justice Department has opened an investigation into the leak of classified information about President Bush's secret domestic spying program, Justice officials said Friday.

The officials, who requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the probe, said the inquiry will focus on disclosures to The New York Times about warrantless surveillance conducted by the National Security Agency since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.



I hope they will investigate and prosecute vigorously.

I want to see some perp-walks from both those who leaked it to the NYT AND journalists and editors at NYT, who published, even though the President personally met with them, explained the top secret nature of the information and that national security will be harmed if they publish the info.

[DarthVader]

Same thought has been occurring to me I agree with you. He baited and suckered them in. Now their asses belong to him. A Machiavellian master stroke if I've ever seen one.

[clawrence3]

LOL (I'm also a Christian for Bush ; )

[RoseofTexas]

Dang it! Just came back from a quick trip to the store hoping for some delicious news here and all I got was a lousy no news from the FBI etc...ugh! That was the fastest trip to the store I've ever made....bummer :(

UNFIT John Kerry should NEVER have been an U.S. senator!
The very idea that Kerry has been a senator for 20+ years is disgusting beyond words. The fact that this Maoist PHONY S.O.B was a presidential candidate insults the Democrat party beyond the party's self-insulting obstructionist infantilism.

[rightinthemiddle]

I hope you are right but I'm not optimistic.

Ask your Average Joe voter about "Able Danger." Ask him how good the economy is. Ask him if he knows how much drilling in ANWR will affect the environment.

The MSM wins most of the battles. We manage to barely win the wars.

LOL...I have to go to the bank and store...and was afraid to leave.....
