How is the Democrats going to spin the next attack that they are now setting up with their neutering of the CIA and the great weakness shown to the world.

I guess it will be Bush's fault until the turn of the next century.

Having people like Jed Babbin still pushing back against this takeover/’change’ of our country gives me a glimmer of hope for the future.

“her party’s inquisitions,”

Yep, this is precisely the right word to describe the last eight years against Bush.

We have become Zimbabwe.

@@@@

We are heading that way rapidly. Every decision that Don Obama/Emanuel/Soros makes gets us closer to that kind of collapse.

Not only is he directly taking over our major institutions, he is actively promoting class/race warfare. I pray we do not have a hot summer, because we will not have a quiet one if Don Obama continues to stir up his preferred “disenfranchised.”

The situation in Zimbabwe has been as scrubbed from American ‘news’ dissemination as photos of the burning Twin Towers. I believe the reason for this lack of information is because Mugabe’s power has a powerful attraction for American ‘liberals.’ They believe in total control ‘of the masses,’ of course, not considering themselves to be included in ‘the masses.’

Obama knows how to play the congress into doing what ever he wants..He knew Pelosi would lie. Now she basically will allow anything to save her skin, even giving Obama ultimate power over the CIA without any oversight...Which is another peice of his control and conquer plan. The country is slowly being taken over.

When Obama stands back and watches the decadent Pelosis, homesexual Frank's,Pompous Kerrys kicked to the side of the curb, then the real fear of all the dumb people who voted for this jerk will set in. The blacks are clueless. Notice how much you see the old gaurd Jesse Jackson around... You don't. They are out of the loop and they wouldn't dare bring attention to themselves because they don't want people to know just how much power they have lost. Even the ACORN supporters who monitor this board, alot of them will be weeded out.

Our country is going down the tube all because people did not vote for character, they voted for skin color. Martin Luther King must be rolling and rolling!

two emergency closed-door meetings were called this week on Capitol Hill.

The first meeting, on Tuesday evening, was attended by Pelosi, Intelligence Committee Chairman Silvestre Reyes (D-Tx) and others. The following night, Pelosi and some or all of the other attendees met with CIA Director Leon Panetta, also behind closed doors.

No Republicans were invited to either meeting

Isn't that (like) real friggin' illegal?

So much for transparent government and checks-and-balances.

With so many utter morons in Washington, she's probably not the stupidest, but she definitely represents the most potent combination of power and sheer idiocy.

Maybe it’s time to send Pelosi another email about this stupidity. Remember it has to go to her as SPEAKER.

Dude,

Seriously, watch it! The USSS lives for harassing people that posts (clearly innocent and sarcastic) comments such as yours...really.

An important point here is why are they doing this?

Is it stupidity or are they trying to destroy our intelligence community? I believe with Obama it’s a deliberate attack on the intelligence community, with Pelosi it’s stupidity.

No matter what the reason they have royally screwed the intelligence gathering abilities of this country.

Harry Truman started the CIA with leftovers from all the intelligence branches of the government, It was a secret agency and pretty much responsible to no one but the President. Today its secrets have been outed, its agents endangered , the House and the Senate have their noses in everything they do, and the President is at war with them..

Like Chrysler, they are bankrupt ,and need to be restructured back to what they were ,or foreclosed on and shut down.

Why?
Have I said anything that is not true?
Have I made any threat?
I do not like this assclown socialist who wants to take my families money we earned and give it to fools and turds.
And I will not hide in a corner nor shut my mouth for fear from his henchmen.
Screw em.

“Pelosi learned that her actions, and those of President Obama and other Democrats over the past ninety days have so damaged CIA morale that the agency’s ability to function could be in danger.

As a result, two emergency closed-door meetings were called this week on Capitol Hill.

The first meeting, on Tuesday evening, was attended by Pelosi, Intelligence Committee Chairman Silvestre Reyes (D-Tx) and others. The following night, Pelosi and some or all of the other attendees met with CIA Director Leon Panetta, also behind closed doors.

No Republicans were invited to either meeting which means the Democrats were assessing the damage and deciding how to maneuver their way out from under the responsibility for it. “

Well. Isn't this speshul. And with Pakistan under grave assault and 2 weeks from point of no return (as per Petraeaus), Iraq starting to crack at the seams since we annoucned our departure date, Afghanistan as a sideshow except for the troop risking their lives there, and North Korea threatening to pop off more missiles over Japan unless the UN apologizes for hurting their feelings.

While bambi, while bankrupting the US into virtual nonrecovery mode and doing his best to turn a US recession inot a global depression... pursues his top agenda item of coopting the US health care system and imposing a massive energy tax to fund it.

Nah, bambi don't need no steenkin' CIA... I can't wait for the “obama’s first 200 days in office” celebration.

“Arrogance will the downfall of Pelosi and her ilk. It will happen, I just don’t know when.”

They won’t go down with the ship unless there are no lifeboats- you better believe her husband’s money and her influence have created a safe haven for her family...Plus - she is SHAMELESS. ARROGANT AND SHAMELESS. To the point she comes across as mentally ill.

meanwhile we poor suckers in steerage class... die first.
