Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., told "Fox News Sunday" that the leak is "a big one."

the leak probably came from the Senate Intelligence Committee, where this kind of stuff always comes from.

The New York Times have people on Rockefellers staff.

Feinstein may vote liberal on most issues, but I’ll give her credit for being on the side of our country rather than its enemies.

An anonymous source in the intelligence community said: “No one is more upset than us about this disclosure.”

Yeah, sure. And you just can’t figure out who the leaker was, can you, buddy? It’s beyond your intelligence capabilities.

Yes yes difi.
Just as clinton promised to go after the bombers during his presidency, just as obama promised to go after the wall street villians.

I believe you....not

She said an investigation is being conducted and expressed hope that "criminal charges will go to the Department of Justice."

I'll BET she hopes that's where the charges are pursued.

This group in Washington couldn’t keep a freakin secret if their lives depended on it.

Prosecute. Sure, as long as the leaker is a Republican.
If it’s a Democrat, it’ll be a resume enhancer.

I think the leak came from the CIA itself. Right after the underwear bomber was exposed, Big Jan and Homeland Security spent the better part of a week patting themselves on the back. so much so that I was worried they would hurt their arms.
I think the CIA is growing weary of some of the back-patting and crowing about their “accomplishments” and let this out just to shut them up for a day or so.
Don't forget, for the first time in a long while the CIA is not run by a politician, but a warrior.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., told...

First the BS then she swears to it!

Perhaps O.J. could help her on this investigation, soon as he gets out.

What’s wrong with this title?: “Senate Intelligence Committee”. Just sounds all wrong, doesn’t it?

Note to Feinstein:

Article One of the United States Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power of impeachment and the Senate the sole power to try impeachments.

So, when the source of the leak turns out to have Obama’s fingerprints all over it, who you gonna call to get it done?

Senator WAR PROFITEER and her husband know to be on the winning side.

It appears that the WH asked the AP to wait for their official annnouncement on 5-8 and AP released the story on 5-7.
Hmm...sure looks like the WH is the source.
