FREE REPUBLIC NETWORK LAUNCHES WEB SITE ON SENATE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE MEMO, CALLS FOR SENATOR ROCKEFELLER TO RESIGN

(Washington, DC) The Free Republic Network today announced the unveiling of www.intelmemo.com, a new web site that provides news, analysis and research material regarding the plans by partisan Democrats on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence to use sensitive intelligence data for political attacks against the Bush Administration, as outlined in a recently revealed internal memo. The Network also called for the immediate resignation of the Committee’s Vice Chairman, Senator Jay Rockefeller. Executive Director Robert Hahn released the following statement:

“The members of the Senate Intelligence Committee have access to our government’s most sensitive secrets. The lives of America’s soldiers and intelligence agents depend on their using that knowledge responsibly. It is now clear that certain partisan members of this vital committee have conspired to misuse their positions, influence, and access to classified information to undermine President Bush during the 2004 campaign season.

The leaked memo describes a phony ‘independent investigation’ designed to let the Democrats dig through classified material – information that should be used to improve our national security – to support and publicize their political agenda. We agree with Senator Zell Miller that this abuse must not be tolerated, ignored, or excused, and that “heads should roll.”

Therefore, I ask every American citizen to join me in calling for the immediate resignation of Jay Rockefeller from the United States Senate. As ranking Democratic member of the Intelligence Committee, Senator Rockefeller is responsible for the acts of his subordinates. We cannot permit America's national security to be damaged by partisan political warfare.”

The complete contents of the memo, press articles, transcripts from the Congressional Record and other information can be found at www.intelmemo.com.

The Free Republic Network is a 501(c)(4) public service corporation whose mission is to organize, train and support conservative activists nationwide. It provides information and organizational services to more than 50 regional and issue-based chapters around the country, and serves as the activism arm of the Free Republic Forum.

Thank you and those involved in this effort to get the word out about ol' treason's first cousin's memo. The mainstream has been predictably mum on the subject.

[The Shrew]

You may want to ping your West Virginia Contact list to this thread. I have a feeling you know some folks who will be interested in this!

I was e-mailed with this this morning.It was filtered to my junk mail.Wonder what caused that to happen.Most people dump their junk without ever opening it.

[Chad Fairbanks]

I hope that doesn't happen to too many people. Yikes!

[Chad Fairbanks]

Thought you all might be interested (and a blatant abuse of your ping lists would be appreciated LOL)

[eastforker]

Yea,it was labeled as "high" junk content.Something happening under the table we don't know aboit?

[Grampa Dave]

Bumping another good news announcement about Free Republic.

[eastforker]

Congratulations to all involved in setting up this website. (And great website name, BTW.) Now, of course, the purpose is to get the word out, and to generate interest to keep the story alive.

I hope you have thought of including the floor remarks of the (More or Less) Honorable Carl Levin, Senator, in which he was more upset over the fact that someone "stole" the memo, than he was at what the memo said.

Threats to the security of the United States can come from any quarter, including (sadly) the Senate. Would Levin have been upset if someone "stole" the plans for the attack on Pearl Harbor, or the attack on the World Trade Center? What a brass-plated buffoon.

My filter "junks" communiques from the RNC and from members of our local Republican group until I tell the filter not to. One by one I have to approve those emailers -- then the messages come through just fine.

Always check your junk mail before you dump it.

[Libertina]

BUMP! Agreed, Rockefeller must go!
