infidel_US,

Politics is everywhere in Washington, including at the CIA, but your argument about the CIA being a left wing organization shows that you aren't dealing in reality.

Here's the reality. The CIA is our only means of tracking the movement of weapons of mass destruction,particularly nuclear WMD. The operative networks that both gather information and circumvent deadly transfers need their cover protected to protect us. If you reveal the identity of one agent you compromise the entire network.

There is no greater crime against America that can be done by someone with the security clearance to do so than to compromise our ability to circumvent nuclear traffic. Going to war in Iraq on a lie was nowhere near as damaging to us than this, this is the mother of all crimes against the free world.

This isn't a political game, it's about the survival of civilization and apparently nobody on the right gives a ***. I guess you're all counting on the rapture but I don't think the rapture will be for those who condone destruction.

If your buddy Bin Laden could give you a high 5 he would.

Nothing good coming out of GWB's white house.
Just look at the s-e-xual deviant "bible-study" group elite members - GWB, his (buddy) D-i-c-k Cheney,
Republican Sen. David Vitter, Rev. Ted Haggard of Colorado, Rep. Mark Foley of Florida...etc.

You forgot Gannon staying overnight at the white house numerous times could he have been called in to play the organ or maybe it was to polish the door nobs.

The CIA is a bastion of left wing throwbacks going back to the Carter days. They hate Bush just as much as the MSM and democrats.

Don't think for one second that POLITICS doesn't come in to play in cases like this within the CIA.

I don't think anybody rewrote the Intelligence Identities Protection Act (IIPA). I am sure there are political hacks in all departments of gov as there are many more career employees. Tenet was left over from the Clinton admin and Bush kept him in place. There is the Hatch Act too.

[r9119111]

With the current administration we are playing right into al qaedas hands. All al qaeda needed was a hot headed administration eager to use military might to advance its cause with potential radical muslims around the world.

criminal violation of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act (IIPA), and the CIA is required by law to report any such possible criminal violations. - Wikipedia

Wikipedia data can be modified by anyone and is NOT a credible source. Too bad it's not illegal to report leaks of covert operations against terrorists operating in our own country.

neoconRcrazy, what Judge Bates said in layman's terms is that Wilson (who donated $2000 to Kerry in 2004) and Plame (who donated $1000 to Al Gore in 2000) REVEALED THEMSELVES as Democrat CIA operatives in their failed attempt to use classified CIA intelligence to destroy the Bush administration, and that executive-branch officials had the legal right and ethical duty to unmask, in the national media, their attackers as partisan political moles inside the CIA.

Wrong - S_Temper read below:

On September 16, 2003 the CIA sent a letter to the US Department of Justice, asserting that Plame's status as a CIA undercover operative was classified information and requesting a federal investigation. Knowingly leaking the identity of a covert agent is a criminal violation of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act (IIPA), and the CIA is required by law to report any such possible criminal violations. - Wikipedia

I don't mean to insult you. I am just wondering.
Posted by S_Temper at 03:11 AM : Jul 20, 2007

You insult everybody in this country every time you lie.

[realpatriot1]

S_Temper,

Nice lies. Wilson did not work for the CIA so he had no status to reveal and he didn't disclose the status of his wife who did work for the CIA. That was done in a coordinated fashion by White House, Vice President's office, and the State Department.

The CIA asked Novak not to print her name. He did so anyways and the White House had an advance copy of the article and could've stopped it.

Attacking Wilson is fine but uncovering the nation's anti-WMD network for protecting us from nucleasr terror makes the perpetrators and those who support them the enemies of all Americans.

You like to call democrats surrender-crats for wanting to end the Iraq fiasco which has nothing to do with the war on terror but you folks have surrendered in the real war on terror and have provided our enemies a pass down the only avenue that will ever allow them to trully destroy uys.

Go to hell!

Yeah !
And lets stick with the " conservatives " in the white house!

LOL, you right wing wackos are hilarious !!

[mcvet]

menofoz, you just dropped some very heavy names (Hayek and Mises). Are you a true believer? If so, how does it improve our situation to attack the Bush administration, when they are obviously the lesser of the two evils? A Communist is a Socialist with a gun, and a Socialist is a Liberal with a plan. They are all my enemies. And the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so G.W. Bush received my vote twice. It is cynical and pretentious of you to assume that everyone who supports the Bush administration is in love with G.W. and the policies of his administration. Are you honest, or are you actually just a pseudo-intellectual socialist playing devil's advocate for fun? I don't mean to insult you. I am just wondering.

Now folks THIS is a NAZI. A dyed in the wool Hard CORE Nazi who believes anyone who does not support HIS views and anyone who donates to the Democrat Party is not worthy of Justice. Disgusting lint these fascist. I can't believe that I once put my life on the line for garbage like this.. Absolutely DISGUSTING!! SIEG HEIL BUSH!! SIEG HEIL!! SIEG HEIL!! SEIG HEIL!!

WASHINGTON - The Pentagon has issued a stinging rebuke to Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton, arguing that she is boosting enemy propaganda by asking how the U.S. plans to eventually withdraw from Iraq.

Under Secretary of Defense Eric Edelman wrote a biting reply to questions Clinton raised in May, urging the Pentagon to start planning now for the withdrawal of U.S. troops.

A copy of Edelman's response, dated July 16, was obtained Thursday by The Associated Press.

"Premature and public discussion of the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq reinforces enemy propaganda that the United States will abandon its allies in Iraq, much as we are perceived to have done in Vietnam, Lebanon and Somalia," Edelman wrote.

He added that "such talk understandably unnerves the very same Iraqi allies we are asking to assume enormous personal risks."

[samrensho]

Well, W and Cie. stack the courts so what do you expect? "With liberty and justice for all" - what a crock.

[neoconrcrazy]

U.S. District Judge John D. Bates dismissed the case on jurisdictional grounds and said he would not express an opinion on the constitutional arguments. "

Doessn't that say about everything?

[menofoz]

The reality is that today there are ever fewer conservatives alive who believe in true liberty as the old school believed in it. They have been ideologically compromised beyond repair. They have been so seduced by the Bush administration that they have become champions of an egregious war, ghastly bureaucracies like the Department of Homeland Security, and utterly unprincipled on the question of government growth.

Granted, the corruption of conservatism dates way back%u2014to the Reagan administration, to the Nixon administration, and even to the advent of the Cold War, when conservatives signed on to become cheerleaders of the national security state.

But it%u2019s never been as bad as it is today. They sometimes invoke the names of genuinely radical thinkers such as F.A. Hayek and Ludwig von Mises. But their real heroes are talk-radio blabsters, television entertainers, and sexpot pundit quipsters. They have little intellectual curiosity at all.

I love the republiconvicts, talking about the "bush" haters. If Jefferson, Washingtong, and any other founding fathers were alive today, they'd go off on Mr. Bush. Yet the few Bush supporters left have no idea how stupid they look.

Hell if Goldwater was alive today he'd spit in Dubya's face for daring to call himself a "conservative". Goldwater, the father of modern conservatism, believed in a balanced budget, paying down the national debt, the government staying out of citizens private lives and no foreign entanglements esp NOT nation building! Bush has pis*sed on everything that real conservatives stood for and yet many of them are still too dam*n ignorant to see it! They put party loyalty over the principles and even over what's best for America!
