[darkmatter]

President Bush’s senior national security advisers are debating whether to expand the authority of the Central Intelligence Agency and the military to conduct far more aggressive covert operations in the tribal areas of Pakistan...

[darkmatter]

Who in the Bush Administration keeps leaking this to the NY Times anyway?

[Army Air Corps]

Thanks, NYT.

[Perdogg]

Probably some one on the Senate Intel Committee.

[nckerr]

Why is it that Bush ahs been in office for 7 years and still can’t find the leakers to the NYT?

[marron]

Sure. Put the military in charge of the operation, and CIA in charge of publicity.

[Defiant]

I have a feeling you will be getting a notice shortly—of the need to use the “search” feature.

Had they known, the NYSlimes would have told the Nazis that John Has a Long Moustache was the coded signal used by the French Resistance in WW II to mobilize their forces once the Allies had landed on the Normandy.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

‘Tain’t covert no more!

[Chode]

[max americana]

LOl!! It’s both funny and tragic.

[Agent Smith]

Right on target.

“Who in the Bush Administration keeps leaking this to the NY Times anyway?”

I’m of the opinion that a lot of this stuff is “leaked” just to keep Osama nervous. 99% of the time, when something is to be kept secret, it is secret. Remember, with the CIA, nothing is as it seems....

[manic4organic]

Oh, but don’t call the left unpatriotic.
