The Lt Col followed that procedure


It sounds to me like he continues to keep pretty mum for the most part. He took his case to Weldon but it is not like Weldon is unauthorised to hear what he had to say. Even the September 2005 hearings were light on the details with just enough thrown out to show that there needs to be some serious investigation into Shaffer's story.

Actually based on all that I read. The Lt Col did EXACTLY what he is suppose to do. He discussed it with a member of Congress who has the appropriate clearance. That is HOW the Whistle blower rules work. That is why the angst and hysteria by the Junk Journalists about the NSA Leaker being a "Whistelblower" is so criminal. NO, the NSA Leaker was NOT authorized to talk to the press about their "Concerns". They KNEW the rules and went to the DNC NY Times for partisan POLTICAL reasons, not based on ANY notion of their Duty.
