But, but, it was all the doing of Bush/Cheney. The wise men of the CIA and the 'Foreign Policy Establishment' told us this for eight years. Obama was the to be the lightbringer, the Mahdi, the expected one.

I believe to this day some in the intelligence community withheld intelligence about the location of OBL from the Bush Administration.

Yawn....when I see officials in levenworth prison...

Wake me up...

Nevertheless, the seriousness of the allegations of fraud and dishonesty on the part of those responsible for the maintenance of America’s national security, and all in service to preserving Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama’s preferred political narratives, is positively shocking.

It's positively shocking? To whom?

Last time the intelligence community went to war with a US president was in Dallas.

Right. Where are the indictments? Otherwise, stop wasting my time.

The latest I read showed that Bush told Tenant to tone down the WMD claims.

I believe it was the intel community that fed the press a grossly exaggerated account of WMD off the record in the run up to the war-- when that proved false, to cover their ass with the press, they blamed Bush.

Plus the embedded dem operatives masquerading as civil servants took advantage of the situation: look at Armitage and Plame.

Some of these intelligence agents, are risking taking a dirt nap, if they tell the truth.

As long as John Brennan controls the CIA there will be no “ intelligence community” revolt against obama

military analysts maybe but not the civilians

[silverleaf]

We know they never briefed bush or Cheney on the Chinese dogging our recon aircraft in the south China sea and look how that turned out

Clinton received on her unsecured server included details and imagery related to North Korea’s nuclear program. Hillary Clinton could not have encountered confidential information regarding a rogue state’s atomic weapons arsenal and capabilities and not have known that was, at the very least, sensitive intelligence.

How did this intelligence get from an secure server to Hillary;s server. You can not just forward it even if you tried. This means it was electronically copied to a physical medium probably a thumb drive and taken out that way. This is a big time crime by one of Hillary's assistants. I predict more taking of the fifth amendment.

Thanks. You are the first to mention this. I kept remembering that in my humble position one could not send classified to an unclas account and vicea versa. Why have all the smart people in the media of all political coloration's not mentioned this?
