Democrats’ Attack on CIA … Now Total Retreat by Pelosi’s Forces
Island Turtle ^ | May 6, 2009 | Corky Boyd

Posted on 05/06/2009 12:54:38 PM PDT by Corky Boyd

Two weeks ago Democrats were in full attack mode, intending to prosecute any and all who “tortured” enemy combatants. Thanks to the backbone of some former senior CIA folks and I might add, the Washington Post, there has been an abject reversal, culminating in a letter from the House Intelligence Committee to all CIA personnel. Here's the story.

Recently the CIA has come under assault recently like no other time. The first insult was the appointment as Director of Leon Panetta, a political hack with no previous intelligence experience. The agency soon became a punching bag, in an orgy of Bush bashing

There are plenty of FOIAs out there to find out what was said in that infamous torture meeting SanFranNan claims to be fuzzy about. Should be interesting reading.

Maybe it’s the botox “fuzzying” things up for her?

How smart is it to play mind games with experts who certainly made it a science and quite probably coined the term?

Any thought(s) on that, Phil?

I think he means thanks to Dick Cheney.

It’s too late for Nancy now. The CIA will sit on its hands. Any terrorist attack will be blamed on Pelosi.

Hussein is a legend. He's Kenyan by birth; Communist and Islamist by indoctrination. Of course he's disarming us.

Goss' chief of staff John Millis called Deutch our worst DCI for counterintel and called Clinton our worst president for counterintel. Millis sucked a shotgun in a bathtub at the Breezeway Motel.

Carter's Turner fired 820 case officers Halloween 1977.

Congress' Boland Amendment made us fight Daniel Ortega Commie daughter-raper in the dark, using Mena and garage sale weapons.

From the Church Committee to Jamie Gorelick's Wall our Democrats in Washington have been the enemies of our intelligence gatherers.

It's easy to see Hussein dismantling our intelligence--look how he went newspeak on the War On Terror--ban the phrase--the war on terror is down the memory hole.

The slime letter to the CIA by Reyes in the blog article is as effective as Syrup of Ipecac--read it at the peril of your keyboard.

Do we not recall Ted The Swimmer writing Andropov to thwart warmonger Reagan's reelection.

Do we not recall Democrats' Dear Commandante letter to Daniel Ortega Communist daughter-raper.

Nazi Lugosi is a hideous thing, but not the most hideous.

The most hideous is Hussein campaigning for Odinga whose Islamomobsters burned Christians alive in their church--

Behold today is National Prayer Day and America needs one--

The mole Angleton feared is president--

They realized they would be “EXPOSED” (scary thought), but they knew they were in the middle of the meetings. The Demmies agreed with President Bush.

Air Peelosi and the other Democrats were scared to death of another attack. The question now is: Why do they think there will not be other attacks? Why are they so confident Washington, D.C. and the rest of the USA is safe?

Do they believe or think their Muslim President will keep them safe from the Terrorist?

I see.
And you're right --'bout me, anyhow-- I *did* forget many of the incidences you listed.

There're enough things done by Communists, Liberals and/or our home grown strains against us I swear there could be a full blown degree offered on the subject. ;^)
