These two were Fidel Castro fans and spies for 30 years, so the Washington Post should not try to blame this on Pres. Bush. They fit right in to the Lefty D.C./East Coast culture, so they were never suspected because all the “intelligent people” in those circles disdain America, the country that has coddled them all these years.
Pol Pot had a cruel but brilliant solution to this problem in Cambodia when he emptied the universities and forced the upper crust from the cities to the rural areas to fend for themselves. He didn’t even have to buy bullets to get rid of most of them.
“In November 2006, Kendall Myers’s frustration with U.S. policy boiled over. In what he apparently thought was an off-the-record gathering at Johns Hopkins, he assailed the Bush administration’s treatment of one of its closest allies, Britain.”
He must be pretty confused by zero’s treatment of Britain then!
If this man was given such a high security clearance why was he not subjected to the same security measures as people in the CIA? The article says that he avoided the CIA because they require a lie detector test and the State Department does not. I think that it is time for a thorough going examination of the culture of the State Department although I understand that is not a ghost of a chance of that happening under this administration or through this Congress.
This of course is not merely a Democrat left-wing problem we have seen the State Department culture of leftism flower under Colin Powell and Richard Armitage. The CIA and the State Department seemed to have been racing neck and neck to the New York Times and the Washington Post and for the same motivation that this couple which spied on America for 30 years had, disdain for the Bush administration, hatred of America, unparalleled arrogance that they knew better than the American voters.
That reminds me, did I mention Alger Hiss?
If it was my call I'd have all the State Department employees who were Democrat hacks be shipped off to embassies and consulates in war zones. I'd even go as far as to open consulates in such places just to make it happen. :)
IMO that's even better than firing them!
